Acetazolamide (Cat No.: A000097), also known as Diamox and PIM-005, is an effective carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitor. Acetazolamide can reduce inflammation-induced heat pain allergy, and significantly inhibit CAM angiogenesis and endothelial cell proliferation. It is clinically used to treat glaucoma and reduce intraocular pressure; Treatment of metabolic alkalosis and brain edema. In cancer chemotherapy, its treatment as an auxiliary means also has a certain effect, which can delay tumor growth in vivo with other anti-cancer drugs.
