Protein-Protein Interaction Modulator

<p>Dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor</p>

<p>Inhibitor of Hsp90 chaperone protein; anti-neoplastic</p>

<p>A cytotoxic taxane and anti-microtubule agent with anti-proliferative activity. Docetaxel binds to the β-subunit of tubulin, which results in increased polymerisation and stabilisation of microtubules. The compound interferes with microtubule dynamics, which leads to the cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase and apoptosis. The compound has significant inhibitory activity in solid tumors either alone or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents.</p>

<p>A Bad-like BH3 mimetic with strong affinity for Bcl-xl, Bcl-2 and Bcl-w that promotes BIM-mediated apoptosis. Enhanced efficacy when combined with other chemotherapies in xenograft models of B-cell malignancies and SCLC. Has senolytic effects on senescent cells, demonstrating revival of aged HSCs in vivo.</p>

<p>Levosimendan has been shown to act as a calcium sensitiser and increase cytosolic Ca2+ levels. It is an analog of the cardiac glycoside, ouabain. This drug has been shown to be effective for the treatment of congestive heart failure and is used to increase the heart’s contractility and decrease its rate in patients who have low cardiac output. Levosimendan also causes vasodilation by increasing nitric oxide production in vascular endothelial cells.</p>

<p>Rivaroxaban is a natural drug that is a direct factor Xa inhibitor. It has been shown to be an effective therapy for the treatment of atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). It works by inhibiting the enzyme, thrombin, which is responsible for the formation of blood clots. Rivaroxaban also has an effect on the coagulation system by decreasing the levels of fibrinogen and increases in antithrombin III. This drug does not have any specific antidote, but it can be reversed with heparin. Pharmacodynamics and drug interactions have been studied extensively in preclinical models, demonstrated by the concentration–time curves.</p>

<p>Recombinant protein against VEGF(A); binds placental growth factor (PIGF)</p>

<p>Efficient chemiluminescent NH2-coupling reagent for detection of proteins</p>

<p>Tubulin binding agent; targets tumour vasculature</p>

<p>HDM2 antagonist; inhibits interaction between MDM2 and p53</p>

<p>Inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B</p>

<p>Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitor</p>

<p>VS1 is a novel synthetic peptide, which is engineered to function as an antimicrobial agent. This peptide originates from recombinant DNA technology, providing a customizable approach to target specific microbial strains. Its mode of action involves the selective disruption of microbial cell membranes, leading to the lysis and consequent death of the target cell. The specificity of VS1 for microbial cells over mammalian cells minimizes off-target effects, making it a highly effective agent for infection control.</p>
