<p>Inhibitor of the Bruton tyrosine kinase</p>

<p>Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitor</p>

<p>Ramipril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It is used in the treatment of high blood pressure, congestive heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. Ramipril inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II by blocking ACE, which lowers blood pressure and reduces fluid retention.This product is part of our Bio-X ™ Range.

<p>K02288 is a small molecule inhibitor, which is derived from extensive chemical synthesis and compound screening techniques. It functions as a selective antagonist of the activin receptor-like kinase (ALK) pathway, specifically inhibiting Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-β) superfamily receptor signaling. This pathway is crucial in a variety of cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, thereby making K02288 an important tool in cell signaling and cancer research.</p>

<p>Opioid receptor antagonist</p>

<p>Biperiden hydrochloride is an anticholinergic medication, which is a synthetic derivative. It exerts its effects primarily through the central nervous system by blocking acetylcholine receptors. This blockade reduces the activity of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, which plays a role in muscle contractions and various neural functions. By antagonizing the muscarinic receptors, Biperiden hydrochloride helps in modulating the balance between neurotransmitters in the brain.</p>

<p>Inhibitor of PDE4 enzyme; anti-inflammatory</p>

<p>Antagonist of Wnt signalling pathway by inhibiting the activity of Porcn, a member of the membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) family. Porcn is required for the palmitoylation of Wnt, mediating its secretion and signalling. Inhibits self-renewal in embryonic stem cells, whilst promoting differentiation to epiblast stem cells.</p>

<p>Analeptic</p>

<p>Potent and selective GSK3-β inhibitor, with IC50 value of 48 nM. Increases Nanog expression and regulates self-renewal in murine embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Induces reprograming of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to derive cells from specific lineages.</p>

<p>Mibefradil is a calcium channel antagonist with the highest selectivity for T- and L-type channels, but also effective for N-, Q-, and R-type calcium channels at micromolar range. It decreases smooth muscle proliferation in response to vascular injury and causes vessel dilatation.</p>

<p>Dothiepin is a tricyclic antidepressant used to treat depression in patients who are not responding to alternative therapies. This drug inhibits the reuptake of norepinephrine and serotonin, increasing available neurotransmitter levels at the synaptic cleft. It also exhibits anticholinergic, antihistamine and central sedative properties.</p>

<p>Docetaxel is an antineoplastic agent that is used to treat various cancers such as breast and prostate cancer. This drug interferes with the normal function of microtubule growth. It is an anti-mitotic drug used in chemotherapy. Research has shown that this drug also induces programmed cell death in cancer cells.</p>

<p>Thalidomide is a piperidinyl isoindole drug that is used to treat various cancers such as myeloma and erythema nodosum leprosum. This drug is immunosuppressive and has anti-angiogenic activity. Thalidomide’s mechanism of action is not fully understood however it is thought to block the activity of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α).</p>

<p>Baricitinib phosphate is a selective Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, which is a synthetic product developed through targeted molecular design. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of JAKs, which are intracellular enzymes that transmit cytokine-mediated signals via the JAK-STAT pathway. By blocking these signals, baricitinib phosphate effectively reduces inflammatory responses.</p>

Inhibitor of COX1 cyclooxygenase

<p>Aminopterin is an antineoplastic agent and antifolate, which is a synthetic derivative of pteroylglutamic acid. It functions as a chemotherapeutic agent by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase, an enzyme crucial in the folic acid pathway, thereby preventing the conversion of dihydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate. This disruption leads to impaired synthesis of purine nucleotides and thymidylate, which are essential for DNA synthesis and cell division.</p>

<p>A selective inhibitor of glial glycine transporter type 1 (GlyT-1b). It has no considerable affinity for noradrenaline, dopamine, serotonin and GABA receptors. Increases amplitude of electronically evoked NMDA receptor-mediated glutamatergic excitatory postsynaptic current (eEPSCs). This raises glycine levels in spinal cord slides and extends the duration of current at glycinergic synapses.</p>

<p>Nateglinide is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus as an oral hypoglycemic, insulinotropic agent. It is a blocker of ATP-dependent potassium channels and works by increasing the body's production of insulin, which lowers blood glucose levels. Nateglinide has been shown to be effective in reducing postprandial blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who have not responded well to other treatments. The effects of nateglinide are reversible.</p>

<p>Dual inhibitor of thromboxane receptor and DP2 postanoid receptor</p>
