aIC50 after 15 min preincubation (enzyme + 100 µM NADPH + compound).

bIC50 (µM) or inhibition (%) at 66.7 µM (enzyme + 100 µM NADPH + compound) after 6 h preincubation. Inhibition (%) of TGR activity after 6 h incubation are given and not IC50s because equilibrium between enzyme and inhibitor was not obtained in this time frame (Fig. 3d).

cratio of GSH/GSSG in adult worms determined after 3 h exposure to compounds at 50 μM.

dn.d. not determined.

en.i. no inhibition at 67 μM in 6 h.

fPRP is a “slow” inhibitor.
