Ligands organométalliques

<p>Inhibitor of vacuolar-type proton pump</p>

Antagonist of platelet activating factor

<p>Selective inhibitor of the transforming growth factor beta receptor TGFβ1. RepSox can replace Sox, a transcriptional factor required for cell self-renewal, in reprogramming of adult cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). In the cloned interspecies embryos, RepSox induced expression of pluripotency regulatory genes Oct4 and Nanog, improved viability and developmental potential of embryos in the pre-implantation stage.</p>

Neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist

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&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>5-HT1A serotonin receptor agonist; alleviates symptoms of depression</p>

A potent inhibitor of STING protein (stimulator of interferon genes), a protein that partakes in intracellular DNA sensing pathway.  H 151 blocks palmitoylation of STING, which is required for the formation of multimeric complexes for recruiting downstream signalling molecules. Inhibition of STING by H 151 reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine synthesis.

<p>Bruton's tyrosine kinase antagonist; reduces Fcγ receptor signaling</p>

<p>Selective c-Met kinase inhibitor</p>

Agonist of calcium sensing receptor CASR; calcimimetic agent

<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>

Carmustine is a DNA alkylating agent which also cross-links DNA. As a result, Carmustine disrupts the function of DNA, resulting in the arrest the cell cycle and apoptosis. Consequently these properties of Carmustine, in addition to its ability to easily transmit through the blood-brain barrier, means it can be used as a cancer treatment, treating cancers such as, breast, ovarian and pancreatic as well as lymphomas and leukemias. Furthermore Carmustine can contribute to cytotoxic effects through its ability to carbamoylate DNA repair enzymes and proteins.

Fingolimod is a sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator that is used in the treatment of relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis. It is also being studies to manage lung complications in patients with COVID-19. This drug binds to various sphingosine 1-phospahte receptors and suppresses the exit of lymphocytes from lymph nodes.

Potent and selective inhibitor of the glycogen synthase kinase GSK-3. Promotes cell renewal in embryonic stem cells by modulating Notch, MAPK and TGF-β signalling pathways, which are involved in pluripotency. It also affects the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and alters expression of genes coding for proteins, epigenetic regulatory elements and non-coding RNAs. The combination of CHIR 99021 and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) allows long-term self-renewal in adult mouse retinal progenitor cells.

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.

Inhibits p38 MAP kinase; anti-inflammatory; neuroprotective

(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>Crizotinib is a drug that belongs to the group of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It is used in the treatment of cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, and other types of solid tumours. Crizotinib inhibits the activity of the tyrosine kinase ALK or anaplastic lymphoma kinase, which is involved in many signalling pathways and biological processes. The inhibition of this enzyme leads to decreased energy metabolism, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential and increased susceptibility to apoptosis.</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>Inhibits MET, VEGFR1-3, Tie and Ron tyrosine kinases; antineoplastic</p>
