    Antistasin, the first discovered naturally occurring direct Xa inhibitor Rivaroxaban, the first synthetic direct Xa inhibitor marketed as a drug Prior to the introduction of direct factor Xa inhibitors, vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin were the only oral anticoagulants for over 60 years, and together with heparin have been the main blood ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_and_development...

    Two hydrogen bonds are formed and serve an important role directing rivaroxaban into the S1 and S4 subsites. Due to these hydrogen bonds, rivaroxaban forms a L-shape and fits in the pockets. Chlorine substituent of the drug interacts with Tyr-228 in the S1 pocket which enables rivaroxaban to achieve good oral bioavailability and potency.

    Mechanism of class-switch recombination that allows isotype switching in activated B cells. Immunoglobulin class switching, also known as isotype switching, isotypic commutation or class-switch recombination (CSR), is a biological mechanism that changes a B cell's production of immunoglobulin from one type to another, such as from the isotype IgM to the isotype IgG.

  7. Rivaroxaban - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivaroxaban

    Rivaroxaban bears a striking structural similarity to the antibiotic linezolid: both drugs share the same oxazolidinone-derived core structure. [39] Accordingly, rivaroxaban was studied for any possible antimicrobial effects and for the possibility of mitochondrial toxicity, which is a known complication of long-term linezolid use. [40]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified-release_dosage

    Modified-release dosage is a mechanism that (in contrast to immediate-release dosage) delivers a drug with a delay after its administration (delayed-release dosage) or for a prolonged period of time (extended-release [ER, XR, XL] dosage) or to a specific target in the body (targeted-release dosage).
