The chemical classification referred to as TMEM118 Inhibitors predominantly encompasses compounds that target general cellular processes and pathways which might indirectly influence TMEM118, a transmembrane protein with a yet-to-be-fully characterized function. Given its transmembrane nature, TMEM118's activity, localization, or stability can be influenced by the state and dynamics of the cellular lipid bilayer. Compounds such as Nystatin, Filipin III, and Methyl-β-cyclodextrin play a pivotal role in disrupting lipid bilayer integrity or modulating cholesterol levels, factors which might affect the proper functioning or localization of TMEM118.
Further, considering the cellular processes that typically involve transmembrane proteins, vesicle trafficking and endocytosis play a significant role. Brefeldin A, known to influence vesicle trafficking, and Chlorpromazine, which interferes with clathrin-mediated endocytosis, can modify the turnover or cellular distribution of TMEM118. On another front, ion balance and gradients across membranes are crucial for various cellular activities. Chemicals like Amiloride, Monensin, FCCP, and DIDS disrupt ion channels, transport, and gradients, which could indirectly modulate the function or signaling associated with TMEM118.
