Firibastat (QGC001), an orally active brain penetrating proagent of EC33, is a first-in-class brain aminopeptidase A (APA) inhibitor (K_i=200 nM). Firibastat selectively and specifically inhibits conversion of brain angiotensin-II into angiotensin-III and decreases blood pressure in hypertensive rats.

β-Spaglumic acid (β-NAAG) is a competitive NAAG peptidase inhibitor (K_i=1 µM) that protects spinal cord neurons from excitotoxicity and hypoxic damage. β-Spaglumic acid is also a selective mGluR3 antagonist (mGluR3 receptor functions to regulate activity-dependent synaptic potentiation in the hippocampus). β-Spaglumic acid can be used in neuroprotection-related studies.

Benarthin is an orally active Pyroglutamyl peptidase inhibitor, THY1 inhibitor (with a K_d value of 5.13e-08 M) and competitive PGP-1 inhibitor (K_i = 1.2 µM). Benarthin is isolated from the culture broth of Streptomyces xanthophaeus MJ244-SF1.
