<p>Potent and specific inhibitor of the tyrosine protein kinase Mer precursor (MERTK) with 38-fold selectivity over the FMS-like protein kinase FLT3. UNC 4203 inhibits MERTK with an IC50 value of 2.4 nM and shows favourable pharmacokinetic properties. In vivo experiments in mice showed that UNC 4203 dramatically decreased the phosphorylation of MERTK in bone marrow leukemia cells.</p>

<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>Tricyclic antidepressant</p>

<p>As a synthetic trifluorinated glucocorticoid receptor agonist, Fluticasone exhibits anti-inflammatory properties. When binding to and activating glucocorticoid receptors, Fluticasone initiates the activation of lipocortin which inhibits cytosolic phospholipase A2. Consequently, the cascade of inflammatory mediator synthesis reactions are inactivated and the production of inflammatory cells namely mast cells, dendritic cells, macrophages and eosinophils and the cytokines that they produce are greatly reduced.It is this anti-inflammatory role which has enabled Fluticasone to successfully treat conditions such as asthma, emphysema, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis. It has also been seen to increase anti-inflammatory effects of annexoin-1 and mitogen-activated kinase phosphatase-1; reduce mucus gland secretions and increase the number of beta-2 receptors on smooth muscles of the airways.<br>Fluticasone is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready to use products for assay development, screening or other R&amp;D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.</p>

<p>Ponalrestat is an aldose reductase inhibitor, which is a synthetic compound developed for pharmacological purposes. It originates from chemical synthesis designed to target and inhibit the enzyme aldose reductase effectively. The mode of action involves the competitive inhibition of aldose reductase, an enzyme involved in the polyol pathway of glucose metabolism. By preventing the reduction of glucose to sorbitol, it reduces sorbitol accumulation associated with diabetic complications.</p>

<p>Nilotinib is a kinase inhibitor that is used for the treatment of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). This drug is also used for the treatment of CML that is resistant to imatinib. Nilotinib inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of the BCR-ABL protein. It also inhibits PDGFR and c-kit.</p>

<p>γ-secretase inhibitor; inhibits notch signaling</p>

<p>Candesartan is a drug that belongs to the class of angiotensin II receptor antagonists and is used to treat hypertension. It is used in combination therapy with other drugs, such as hydrochlorothiazide and amlodipine, to lower blood pressure. Candesartan inhibits the formation of angiotensin II, the receptor which causes vasoconstriction and increased blood pressure.</p>

<p>Inhibits JAK1 and JAK2 kinases</p>

<p>L-type calcium channel blocker</p>

<p>Padsevonil is an investigational antiseizure medication, which is a synthetic pharmaceutical compound. It is derived from extensive medicinal chemistry research aiming to address complex seizure disorders resistant to conventional treatments. Padsevonil functions by exhibiting a dual mechanism of action. It binds to synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) with high affinity, similar to levetiracetam but with additional modulation of the benzodiazepine-sensitive gamma-aminobutyric acid-A (GABA-A) receptor. This combined activity potentiates its efficacy in stabilizing neuronal hyperactivity and dampening excitatory neurotransmission, providing a novel angle to tackle refractory seizures.</p>

<p>Toceranib phosphate is a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Toceranib phosphate has been shown to be effective in the treatment of skin cancer and other types of cancer, including lung cancer and breast cancer. It is approved in the US as a treatment for canine mastocytoma (mast cell tumours).</p>

<p>Partial inverse agonist of benzodiazepine sites of the GABAA receptors with anxiogenic properties. FG 7142 is a pharmacological stressor which generates anxiety in humans and in experimental animals such as rhesus monkeys and rodents. FG 7142 also reduces food intake and frequency of feeding in male and female rats.</p>

<p>Interleukin-13 human is a recombinant cytokine, which is derived from the expression of the human IL-13 gene in suitable host systems, such as E. coli or mammalian cells. This cytokine belongs to the interleukin family and plays a pivotal role in the immune response by modulating inflammatory pathways. The mode of action of interleukin-13 involves binding to specific cell surface receptors, IL-13Rα1 and IL-13Rα2, which facilitates the activation of various intracellular signaling cascades, including the JAK/STAT pathway. This promotes the differentiation and proliferation of certain immune cells, influencing the production of IgE and contributing to the regulation of inflammatory responses.</p>
