1 Lathosterol side chain amides: a new class of human lathosterol oxidase inhibitors. Amides sterol-C5-desaturase Homo sapiens
2 In this paper we report on lathosterol side chain amides as a new class of selective lathosterol oxidase inhibitors. Amides sterol-C5-desaturase Homo sapiens
3 Small alkyl residues at the amide nitrogen (hydrogen and methyl) lead to an inhibition of the enzyme Delta24-reductase, the N-ethyl and N-propyl derivatives show a dual action, inhibiting both Delta24-reductase and lathosterol oxidase. Amides sterol-C5-desaturase Homo sapiens
4 Lathosterol-derived amides with larger substituents (butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, pentyl) at the amide nitrogen were found to be selective inhibitors of lathosterol oxidase. Amides sterol-C5-desaturase Homo sapiens
