Dioxygenases
|
D049308 |
[Non-heme iron-containing enzymes that incorporate two atoms of OXYGEN into the substrate. They are important in biosynthesis of FLAVONOIDS; GIBBERELLINS; and HYOSCYAMINE; and for degradation of AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS.

Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4
|
D018819 |
[A serine protease that catalyses the release of an N-terminal dipeptide. Several biologically-active peptides have been identified as dipeptidyl peptidase 4 substrates including INCRETINS; NEUROPEPTIDES; and CHEMOKINES. The protein is also found bound to ADENOSINE DEAMINASE on the T-CELL surface and is believed to play a role in T-cell activation.

Dipeptidyl-Peptidase IV Inhibitors
|
D054873 |
[Compounds that suppress the degradation of INCRETINS by blocking the action of DIPEPTIDYL-PEPTIDASE IV. This helps to correct the defective INSULIN and GLUCAGON secretion characteristic of TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS by stimulating insulin secretion and suppressing glucagon release.

Dipeptidyl-Peptidases and Tripeptidyl-Peptidases
|
D004152 |
[A subclass of exopeptidases that includes enzymes which cleave either two or three AMINO ACIDS from the end of a peptide chain.

Diphenhydramine
|
D004155 |
[A histamine H1 antagonist used as an antiemetic, antitussive, for dermatoses and pruritus, for hypersensitivity reactions, as a hypnotic, an antiparkinson, and as an ingredient in common cold preparations. It has some undesired antimuscarinic and sedative effects.
] |
|
Diphenoxylate
|
D004157 |
[A MEPERIDINE congener used as an antidiarrheal, usually in combination with ATROPINE. At high doses, it acts like morphine. Its unesterified metabolite difenoxin has similar properties and is used similarly. It has little or no analgesic activity.

|
Diphenylacetic Acids
|
D004158 |
[Monocarboxylic acid derivatives of acetic acids, where the methyl hydrogens have been replaced by two phenyl groups.

|
Diphenylamine
|
D004159 |
[In humans it may be irritating to mucous membranes. Methemoglobinemia has been produced experimentally. In veterinary use, it is one of active ingredients in topical agents for prevention and treatment of screwworm infestation. An indicator in tests for nitrate poisoning.
] |
|
Diphenylcarbazide
|
D004160 |
[Used as an indicator in titrating iron and for the colorimetric determination of chromium and the detection of cadmium, mercury, magnesium, aldehydes, and emetine.

|
Diphenylhexatriene
|
D004161 |
[A fluorescent compound that emits light only in specific configurations in certain lipid media. It is used as a tool in the study of membrane lipids.

Diphosphates
|
D011756 |
[Inorganic salts of phosphoric acid that contain two phosphate groups.

|
Diphosphoglyceric Acids
|
D004163 |
[Glyceric acids where two of the hydroxyl groups have been replaced by phosphates.
] |
|
Diphosphonates
|
D004164 |
[Organic compounds which contain P-C-P bonds, where P stands for phosphonates or phosphonic acids. These compounds affect calcium metabolism. They inhibit ectopic calcification and slow down bone resorption and bone turnover. Technetium complexes of diphosphonates have been used successfully as bone scanning agents.
