2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.

Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Verosudil is being evaluated in Phase 2 clinical trial for its potential to reduce intraocular pressure in patients diagnosed with ocular hypertension or glaucoma [1]. Click here to link to ClinicalTrials.gov's listing of AR-12286 trials.
Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Non-human primate studies suggest that AR-12286 lowers intraocular pressure primarily by increasing aqueous humor outflow through the trabecular meshwork, as do other Rho kinase inhibitors such as fasudil and Y27632.
