Biological Activity

Esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate ((S)-Omeprazole magnesium trihydrate) is a potent, orally active H+, K+-ATPase inhibitor. Esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate has the potential for upper intestinal disorders and gastroesophageal reflux disease research. Esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate acts as an exosome inhibitor by blocking the exosome release by inhibiting V-H+-ATPases.
