| Bioactivity | 2-Thiouracil is a thiolated uracil derivative that is a known antihyperthyroid agent. Target: Others2-Thiouracil is an established antithyroid drug and an extensively investigated agent for the early detection and targeting of metastatic melanotic melanoma. In addition, 2-Thiouracil is also a selective inhibitor of neuronal nitric oxide synthase antagonising tetrahydrobiopterin-dependent enzyme activation and dimerization. Thiouracil refers both to a specific molecule consisting of a sulfated uracil, and a family of molecules based upon that structure. Thiouracil inhibits thyroid activity by blocking the enzyme thyroid peroxidase [1-3]. Related Catalog Signaling Pathways >> Others >> Others Research Areas >> Endocrinology References [1].
