CU239
CU239 is a potent and competitive non-retinoic acid inhibitor of RPE65 with an IC50 for RPE65 isomerase (11-cis retinal) of 6 μM. CCU239 exhibits delayed chromophore regeneration after light bleach, and conferrs a partial protection of the retina against injury from high intensity light. CU239 can be used for the study of retinal degeneration[1].
