2-Iminobiotin hydrobromide (Guanidinobiotin hydrobromide) is a biotin (vitamin H or B7) analog. 2-Iminobiotin hydrobromide is a reversible nitric oxide synthases inhibitor with Kis of 21.8 and 37.5 μM for murine iNOS and rat n-cNOS, respectively[1]. 2-Iminobiotin hydrobromide superimposes on hypothermia protects human neuronal cells from hypoxia-induced cell damage[2].
Application of low concentrations of 2-Iminobiotin (2-IB; 10 ng/mL and 30 ng/mL) superimposed on hypothermia abrogates the hypoxia-induced lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) increase, resulting in LDH levels that were not different from the normoxia control[1].
