Furosemide (Lasix) is a loop diuretic inhibitor of Na+/2Cl-/K+ (NKCC) cotransporter of which used in the treatment of congestive heart failure and edema.Target: NKCC Furosemide (INN/BAN) or frusemide is a loop diuretic used in the treatment of congestive heart failure and edema. It is most commonly marketed by Sanofi under the brand name Lasix, and also under the brand names Fusid and Frumex. It has also been used to prevent Thoroughbred and Standardbred race horses from bleeding through the nose during races.Along with some other diuretics, furosemide is also included on the World Anti-Doping Agency's banned drug list due to its alleged use as a masking agent for other drugs.Furosemide, like other loop diuretics, acts by inhibiting NKCC2, the luminal Na-K-2Cl symporter in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. The action on the distal tubules is independent of any inhibitory effect on carbonic anhydrase or aldosterone; it also abolishes the corticomedullary osmotic gradient and blocks negative, as well as positive, free water clearance.Because of the large NaCl absorptive capacity of the loop of Henle, diuresis is not limited by development of acidosis, as it is with the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Additionally, furosemide is a noncompetitive subtype-specific blocker of GABA-A receptors. Furosemide has been reported to reversibly antagonize GABA-evoked currents of α6β2γ2 receptors at uM concentrations, but not α1β2γ2 receptors. During development, the α6β2γ2 receptor increases in expression in cerebellar granule neurons, corresponding to increased sensitivity to furosemide
Sodium dichloroacetate is a metabolic regulator in cancer cells' mitochondria with anticancer activity. Sodium dichloroacetate inhibits PDHK, resulting in decreased lactic acid in the tumor microenvironment. Sodium dichloroacetate increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and promotes cancer cell apoptosis. Sodium dichloroacetate also works as NKCC inhibitor[1].
Bumetanide D5 is a deuterium labeled Bumetanide. Bumetanide is a selective Na+-K+-Cl- (NKCC1) inhibitor, weakly inhibits NKCC2, with IC50s of 0.68 and 4.0 μM for hNKCC1A and hNKCC2A, respectively[1].

Bumetanide sodium, a highly potent loop diuretic, is a Na+-K+-Cl+ cotransporter (NKCC) blocker. Bumetanide sodium is a selective NKCC1 inhibitor, and also inhibits NKCC2, with IC50s of 0.68 and 4.0 μM for hNKCC1A and hNKCC2A, respectively[1][2].
Azosemide, a sulfonamide loop diuretic, is a potent NKCC1 inhibitor with IC50s of 0.246 µM and 0.197 µM for hNKCC1A and NKCC1B, respectively[1].
Bumetanide(Ro 10-6338; PF 1593) is an inhibitor of Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) co-transporter (NKCC) with an IC50 of 0.6 uM.IC50 Value: 0.6 uM [1]Target: NKCC (Na-K-Cl cotransporter)in vitro: Cultured chick cardiac cells possess a Na+K+Cl-co-transport system that is inhibited by the "loop diuretics" bumetanide (IC50 = 0.6 microM). The K0.5 values for Cl- and Na+ activation of thebumetanide-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake are 59 mM and 40mM respectively. Bumetanide also inhibits a 22Na+ uptake component that is suppressed when external Cl- or K+ are substituted by impermeant ions. The ratio of bumetanide-sensitive 86Rb+ to 22Na+ uptake is close to 1. The cardiac Na+/K+/Cl- cotransport is a major uptake pathway for Na+ and K+ [1]. Bumetanide inhibits ouabain-resistant 86Rb(K+) influx with IC50of 0.1, 5.0, and 0.05 microM for J774.2, CT2 and J7H1 macrophages, respectively [2]. in vivo:Intraperitoneal injection of 50 or 100 mg bumetanide/kg body weight resulted in an acute and transient hyperglycaemia. Pretreatment with 240 mg probenecid/kg body weight reduced the diuretic effect but potentiated the hyperglycaemic effect of bumetanide (50 mg/kg body weight). The glucose tolerance was impaired, and there was an elevated serum glucose and glucose/insulin ratio 2 h after a single injection of bumetanide (100 mg/kg body weight) [3].
