ZnT-1 Inhibitors

The class of ZnT-1 inhibitors, in the context of indirect inhibition, includes a variety of compounds that primarily target zinc homeostasis and metal ion chelation. ZnT-1 functions to regulate the efflux of zinc from cells, and its activity is influenced by the intracellular concentration of zinc. Compounds like TPEN, Clioquinol, EDTA, EGTA, Dithizone, Histidine, and Sodium Diethyldithiocarbamate, which can chelate zinc and other metal ions, may indirectly impact ZnT-1 by altering the availability of its substrate, zinc. By modulating intracellular zinc levels, these chelators can influence the regulatory mechanisms that control ZnT-1 activity.

Additionally, compounds that disrupt metal ion homeostasis, such as Zinc Pyrithione, Cadmium Chloride, and Mercury Chloride, can also indirectly affect ZnT-1. These compounds, by increasing or interfering with intracellular metal concentrations, could create an imbalance that necessitates the compensatory activity of zinc transporters, including ZnT-1. Disulfiram and Pyrrolidine Dithiocarbamate, known for their metal-chelating properties, represent additional mechanisms by which ZnT-1 function can be modulated indirectly
