<p>Neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist</p>

<p>Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that inhibits the production of prostaglandin PGE2. It is used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. Indomethacin's mechanism of action is not well understood, but it may be due to interference with the ability of PMNs to bind to the surface of bacteria or to release reactive oxygen species. The drug has been shown to reduce mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells, leading to apoptosis. This effect on mitochondria may also contribute to Indomethacin's anti-inflammatory effects. Indomethacin 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>(Z)-Mycophenolic acid is an immunosuppressive agent derived from the fermentation of fungi, primarily from the Penicillium species. It functions by inhibiting inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), an enzyme crucial for de novo purine synthesis. This selective blockade of IMPDH specifically affects lymphocyte proliferation due to their heavy reliance on this pathway for DNA synthesis, thereby exerting its immunosuppressive effects.</p>

<p>3-Hydroxy-5-{[(naphthalen-2-yl)carbamoyl]amino}benzoic acid is a synthetic compound characterized by its complex molecular structure incorporating naphthalene and benzoic acid moieties. As a derivative of benzoic acid, it is typically synthesized through a series of chemical reactions designed to introduce the 3-hydroxy and carbamoyl functional groups, creating a compound with potentially unique bioactive properties.</p>

<p>Pan-class I phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor (IC50 = 3, 33, 3 and 75 nM at catalytic subunits p110α, p110β, p110δ and p110γ respectively). Inhibits proliferation in several cancer cell lines, such as glioblastoma, breast and prostate cancer cells. Has synergistic anti-cancer effect in combination with MEK/ERK kinase inhibitor GDC-0973 (cobimetinib).</p>

<p>Androgen receptor antagonist</p>

<p>Camostat is a serine protease inhibitor that is used for the treatment of chronic pancreatitis. This drug has shown to reduce inflammation and pain. Studies have shown that Camostat has also inhibited the entry of SARS-CoV-2 in lung cells by inhibiting the priming process of S-protein, necessary for the viral entry into host cells.</p>

<p>Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor; therapy for Alzheimer's disease</p>

<p>A light-sensitive probe that functionally encapsulates L-glutamate in an inactive form. Irradiation with light at 360-380 nm cleaves the MNI protecting group and allows the release of free L-glutamate.  It allows tuneable control of the L-glutamate in neurons and precise control over time, dose and location of L-glutamate release.</p>

<p>KBU2046 is an antimicrobial peptide, which is derived from natural or synthetic peptide sequences with potential therapeutic properties. It exerts its effects by disrupting the structure and integrity of bacterial cell membranes through the formation of pores or micelles. This action alters membrane permeability, ultimately leading to cell lysis and death.</p>

<p>Inhibits protein translocation from ER to Golgi; fungal metabolite</p>

<p>Icilin is a transient receptor potential M8 (TRPM8) agonist drug that is used for the treatment of pruritis. This drug has shown to be effective in producing an extreme cold sensation in both human and animal models. It is used in research for studying TRP channels.</p>

<p>Antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors</p>

<p>Nabumetone is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that is used in the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. This drug is also a cyclooxygenase inhibitor and works by inhibiting this enzyme so that pain and inflammation is reduced.</p>

<p>Bexarotene is a retinoid and antineoplastic agent that is used for the treatment of solid tumours and t-cell lymphomas. It inhibits the growth in vitro of some tumor cell lines of hematopoietic and squamous cell origin and research has shown that it induces tumor regression in vivo in some animal models.</p>

<p>Selective TRPM8 channel blocker. Inhibits icillin-induced store-operated Ca2+ entry, hence TRPM8 activation, in pulmonary vasculature. Reduces frequency of volume-induced contraction of bladder. Reduces micturition and nociceptive reflex actions in the bladder, suggesting therapeutic potential for bladder hypersensitivity disorders.</p>

<p>Melatonin is a neurotransmitter produced by the pineal gland that is involved in the regulation of sleep-wake cycles. It can be used to treat several conditions like shift work disorders, insomnia, jet lag, and alterations of the circadian rhythm. Some authors also proposed the use of melatonin against cognitive disorders. In an interesting research conducted on zebrafish, it was found that memory formation occurs better during daytime compared to nighttime, suggesting a role of melatonin in this process. When melatonin was administered during the daytime it caused reduced memory formation. On the contrary, removing the pineal gland or treating the fish with a melatonin antagonist significantly improves nighttime memory formation.</p>

<p>Dapoxetine is a drug that belongs to the group of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). It is used to treat premature ejaculation. This drug inhibits the serotonin transporter allowing for an increased action of serotonin at the postsynaptic cleft, thus promoting ejaculatory delay.</p>

<p>S26131 is an advanced glycation end product (AGE) inhibitor, which is a synthetic compound designed for laboratory research purposes. It is derived from chemical synthesis processes, offering a robust tool for investigating the biochemical pathways associated with glycation. Its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of AGE formation, which is a post-translational modification resulting from the non-enzymatic reaction between sugars and proteins or lipids. This biochemical modulation is vital for studying the implications of glycation in various physiological and pathological contexts.</p>

<p>Inhibitor of leucine-rich repeat kinase LRRK2Â</p>
