Acivicin hydrochloride (AT-125 hydrochloride), a natural product produced by Streptomyces sviceus, is a γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) inhibitor. Acivicin hydrochloride can across the blood-brain barrier and has anti-cancer, anti-parasitic properties[1][2]. | [in vivo]
Acivicin hydrochloride (AT-125 hydrochloride; 5 mg/kg; IP; twice weekly) reduces urinary γ-GT by 70-78%[3]. | Animal Model: | Male pigmented Long-Evans rats weighed between 250 g and 300 g exposed to Toluene[3] | | Dosage: | 5 mg/kg | | Administration: | IP; twice weekly (monday and wednesday) | | Result: | Reduced urinary γ-GT by 70-78%.
