Collismycin A is a bacterial metabolite originally isolated from Streptomyces that has diverse biological activities, including antibacterial, antiproliferative, and neuroprotective properties. It is active against a variety of bacteria (MICs = 6.25 and 100 μg ml) and fungi (MICs = 12.5-100 μg ml). It inhibits proliferation of A549 lung, HCT116 colon, and HeLa cervical cancer cells (IC50s = 0.3, 0.6, and 0.3 μM, respectively) and NIH373 fibroblasts (IC50 = 56.6 μM) but not MDA-MD-231 breast cancer cells (IC50 = >100 μM). Collismycin A forms a complex with Fe(II) and Fe(III) at a 2:1 ratio, and the addition of iron ions inhibits the antiproliferative effect of collismycin A on HeLa cells, an effect that does not occur with the addition of zinc, manganese, copper, or magnesium ions. Collismycin A (1 μM) prevents apoptosis in the brain region of zebrafish larvae by 44% in a model of neuronal cell death induced by all-trans retinoic acid .
CAY10721 is an inhibitor of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), a class III HDAC (39% SIRT3 inhibition at 200 μM). Upregulation of SIRT3 transcription is associated with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and breast cancer with lymph node involvement, while SIRT3 down-regulation inhibits the growth of OSCC cells and sensitizes them to radiation and chemotherapy.
CAY10722 is an inhibitor of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), a class III HDAC (71% inhibition at 200 μM). SIRT3 is involved in modulating metabolic homeostasis as a NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase in the mitochondria. SIRT3 functions as either an oncogene or tumor suppressor, depending on cancer cell type. High SIRT3 expression in patient-derived esophageal cancer tissues is associated with shorter survival and, in mice, downregulation leads to a lower tumor load. In contrast, low SIRT3 expression in patient-derived breast cancer cells is correlated with shorter survival.
Mn(III)TMPyP is a manganese-porphyrin which acts as a superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic and peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst. SOD mimetics described to date are unstable and are capable of catalyzing undesired side-reactions in addition to the dismutation of the superoxide radical (O2-). Mn(III)TMPyP is an SOD mimetic with increased stability to pH and hydrogen peroxide. The rate constant for superoxide dismutation and peroxynitrite decomposition are 3.9 x 107 M-1s-1 and ~2 x 106 M-1s-1, respectively. Mn(III)TMPyP protected and enhanced the growth of SOD E. coli with a doubling time of 60 minutes (as compared to 240 minutes of the control) at 25 µM.
Beauveriolide III is a cyclodepsipeptide that has been found inBeauveriaand an inhibitor of lipid droplet formation.1It inhibits lipid droplet formation when used at concentrations of 3 and 10 μM, as well as inhibits cholesterol synthesis (IC50= 0.41 μM), in primary mouse peritoneal macrophages.1,2Beauveriolide III also inhibits acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in mouse macrophage membranes (IC50= 5.5 μM).2Beauveriolide III (25 and 50 mg kg) reduces the size of aortic atherosclerotic lesions inLdlr- -andApoE- -mouse models of atherosclerosis. 1.Namatame, I., Tomoda, H., Si, S., et al.Beauveriolides, specific inhibitors of lipid droplet formation in mouse macrophages, produced by Beauveria sp.

Urocortin II is a neuropeptide hormone and member of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family which includes mammalian CRF , urocortin , urocortin III , frog sauvagine, and piscine urotensin I.1 Mouse urocortin II shares 34 and 42% sequence homology with rat CRF and urocortin . It is expressed in mouse paraventricular, supraoptic, and arcuate nuclei of the hypothalamus, the locus coeruleus, and in motor nuclei of the brainstem and spinal ventral horn. Urocortin II selectively binds to CRF1 over CRF2 receptors (Kis = 0.66 and >100 nM, respectively) and induces cAMP production in CHO cells expressing CRF2 (EC50 = 0.14 nM). In vivo, urocortin II suppresses nighttime food intake by 35% in rats when administered intracerebroventricularly at a dose of 1 μg. Urocortin II (0.1 and 0.5 μg, i.c.v) stimulates fecal pellet output, increases distal colonic transit, and inhibits gastric emptying in mice.2References1. Reyes, T.M., Lewis, K., Perrin, M.H., et al.

L-AP4 (L-APB) monohydrate is a potent and specific agonist for the group III mGluRs, with EC50s of 0.13, 0.29, 1.0, 249 μM for mGlu4, mGlu8, mGlu6 and mGlu7 receptors, respectively[1][2]. L-AP4 (5-30 μg, intrathecal inhection 4-5 days) significantly increases the paw withdrawal threshold in response to application of von Frey filaments in eight nerve-ligated rats in a dose-dependent manner. Intrathecal administration of different doses of L-AP4 is not associated with any evident motor dysfunction[2].Intrathecal injection of 30 μg of L-AP4 does not significantly alter the paw withdrawal latency in these normal rats[2].Topical application of 5 to 50 μM L-AP4 to the spinal cord significantly inhibited the evoked response of neurons to touch, pressure, pinch, and von Frey filaments in a concentration-dependent fashion[2].

Antimycin A4 is an active component of the antimycin A antibiotic complex that is more polar than antimycin A1 , antimycin A2 , and antimycin A3 . Antimycin A4 inhibits ATP-citrate lyase with a Ki value of 64.8 μM. The antimycin A complex is a mixture of antimycins A1, A2, A3, and A4 that demonstrates antifungal, insecticidal, nematocidal, and piscicidal properties. It blocks mitochondrial respiration and can deplete cellular levels of ATP via inhibition of complex III of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC). Antimycin A prevents the transfer of electrons between the b-cytochromes and ubiquinone at the Q(inner) site of complex III. This results in the stabilization of the ubisemiquinone radical at the Q(outer) site of complex III, leading to increased production of superoxide. Antimycin A is widely used in research to shunt electron flow through the ETC to study the chemical details of oxygen respiration. Additionally, antimycin A has been shown to inhibit Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL proteins, inducing apoptosis.
Chlorido[N,N'-disalicylidene-1,2-phenylenediamine]iron(III) is an inducer of ferroptosis.1 It induces ferroptosis, but not apoptosis or necroptosis, in NB1 cancer cells when used at a concentration of 3 μM.1 Chlorido[N,N'-disalicylidene-1,2-phenylenediamine]iron(III) inhibits proliferation of BJAB, NALM-6, Jurkat, MelHO, and MCF-7 cancer cells (IC50s = 0.07, 2.5, 1.5, 3, and 5 μM, respectively), as well as NALM-6 cells resistant to daunorubicin and vincristine when used at concentrations ranging from 0.04 to 0.125 μM.2 |1.

H-D-Phe-Pip-Arg-pNA hydrochloride, a chromogenic substrate, mimics the N-terminal segment of the A alpha chain of fibrinogen, the native substrate of thrombin. It displays specificity towards thrombin and is employed for quantifying antithrombin-heparin cofactor (AT-III). The utilization of H-D-Phe-Pip-Arg-pNA hydrochloride in the AT-III assay enables a sensitive, accurate, and straightforward measurement process.
Dilmapimod tosylate is a potent p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor. It was investigated for its anti-inflammatory effect in non-head injury trauma patients at risk for developing acute respiratory distress syndrome. IL-1β was identified as a gene regulated by dilmapimod that could influence c-reactive protein levels. Dilmapimod had been in phase III clinical trials by GlaxoSmithKline for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, neuropathic pain, coronary artery disease (CAD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Oxaliplatin-d10 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of oxaliplatin by GC- or LC-MS. Oxaliplatin is a platinum-containing DNA-crosslinking agent. It induces the formation of DNA inter- and intrastrand crosslinks and DNA-protein adducts, inhibits DNA and RNA synthesis, and induces apoptosis in cancer cells. Oxaliplatin is cytotoxic to cisplatin-sensitive A2780(1A9) and KB-3-1 cells and cisplatin-resistant A2780-E(80) and KB-CP20 cells (IC50s = 0.12, 0.39, 4.7, and 2.7 µM, respectively). It reduces tumor growth in an HCCLM3 mouse xenograft model when administered at doses of 5 or 10 mg kg once per week. Formulations containing oxaliplatin have been used in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer and as adjuvants in stage III colon cancer.
