<p>AK 295, also known as CX 295, is a dipeptide inhibitor of alpha-ketoamide calpain.</p>

<p>Ac-DMLD-CMK is a peptide designed to target the caspase3-Gsdme signaling pathway in mice. It specifically inhibits the activation of caspase 3 and Gsdme, preventing the cleavage of Gsdme by caspase 3, which reduces pyroptosis. This process helps alleviate damage to renal tubular epithelial cells and decrease the secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Ac-DMLD-CMK can lower serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels in mice induced by Cisplatin, thereby mitigating the progression of renal dysfunction. It holds potential for research into chemotherapy-induced nephrotoxicity.</p>

<p>PDEδ/NAMPT IN-1 (Compound 17d) is a dual inhibitor targeting phosphodiesterase 6 (PDE6) with a dissociation constant (KD) of 0.410 nM and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) with an inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2.21 nM. It disrupts KRAS-related signaling by inhibiting NAMPT's role in the synthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), consequently inducing apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells with KRAS mutations. This compound holds potential for research in KRAS-mutant pancreatic cancer.</p>

<p>NTU281 inhibits transglutaminase-2, lowers creatinine in diabetic rats, reduces proteinuria, and fights glomerulosclerosis.</p>

<p>TopoisomeraseI/II inhibitor 8 (Compound Ru7) is a dual catalytic inhibitor of TopoisomeraseI/II that induces DNA damage and activates PARP-1, leading to the activation of RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL, ultimately causing necroptosis. It shows significant anticancer activity by effectively targeting cancer cell nuclei and inducing cell death through necroptosis, offering substantial clinical potential in overcoming resistance in cancer treatment.</p>

<p>Siphonaxanthin is a carotenoid found in green algae, known for targeting the death receptor 5 (DR5) on cancer cells to induce apoptosis. In human leukemia HL-60 cells, it increases DR5 expression, reduces Bcl-2 levels, and activates caspase-3. It also inhibits fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR-1) signaling in endothelial cells. Siphonaxanthin suppresses the proliferation, migration, and tubular formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), as well as the growth of microvessels in rat aorta rings. Additionally, it has anti-inflammatory properties by blocking the translocation of high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRI) to lipid rafts in mast cells. Siphonaxanthin shows potential for research into diseases such as cancer, diabetic retinopathy, and rheumatoid arthritis.</p>

<p>Topo II/HDAC-IN-2 (8d) demonstrates remarkable dual inhibitory effects on Topo II and HDAC, and also induces apoptosis [1].</p>

<p>MLS-0053105, a chloromaleimide, functions as a selective inhibitor of BFL-1, exhibiting an IC50 of 0.4 µM against Bfl-1/F-Bid. Its inhibitory potency is over tenfold lower for Bcl-W, Bcl-2, and Bcl-XL, and it shows no activity against Bcl-B and Mcl-1.</p>

<p>HDAC/PSMD14-IN-1 is a derivative of gambogic acid. It serves as an orally active dual inhibitor targeting PSMD14 and HDAC1, with IC50 values of 238.7 nM and 141.2 nM, respectively. The compound exhibits significant cytotoxicity against ESCC cell lines (IC50: 30-250 nM) and effectively reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Additionally, HDAC/PSMD14-IN-1 can induce apoptosis. In KYSE30 cell xenograft models in mice, it displays antitumor activity. HDAC/PSMD14-IN-1 is useful for researching esophageal cancer treatment.</p>

<p>DAPK1-IN-1 (compound 10) is an inhibitor of Death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1), with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.63 μM. It is utilized in the study of Alzheimer's disease.</p>

<p>MP-010 is an FKBP12 ligand that regulates cytosolic calcium by stabilizing RyR channel activity. It facilitates functional improvement in SOD1G93A mice with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), evidenced by enhanced motor coordination, increased integrity of neuromuscular junctions, and significantly higher spinal motor neuron survival rates. MP-010 is applicable for research in the field of neurological disorders.</p>

<p>Coumarin 9a: Selective inhibitor of hCA IX/XII (Ki 93.3/85.7 nM), blocks cancer cell growth, and induces apoptosis.</p>

<p>HL001 is an orally active small molecule inhibitor of cyclophilin A (CypA) and a receptor antagonist of lysophosphatidic acid 1 (LPA1). It induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in tumor cells via p53. By downregulating G3BP1, HL001 promotes reactive oxygen species production and DNA damage to stabilize p53.
