Emixustat (hydrochloride)
Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
Emixustat (ACU-4429) hydrochloride is an orally active RPE65 inhibitor with an IC50 value of 4.4 nM. Emixustat hydrochloride is also a visual cycle modulator, capable of regulating visual cycle activity by inhibiting retinol isomerization, and holds potential for studying vision disorders such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD)[1][2][3][4].
