GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 731033
Species: Homo sapiens
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: DFFB
Name: DNA fragmentation factor, 40kDa, beta polypeptide (caspase-activated DNase)
Acc ID: CHEBI:4495
Term: diazoxide
Definition: A benzothiadiazine that is the S,S-dioxide of 2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine which is substituted at position 3 by a methyl group and at position 7 by chlorine. A peripheral vasodilator, it increases the concentration of glucose in the plasma and inhibits the secretion of insulin by the beta- cells of the pancreas. It is used orally in the management of intractable hypoglycaemia and intravenously in the management of hypertensive emergencies.
CasRN: 7683-59-2
