Epitalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide with anti-aging properties.1,2,3,4 Dietary administration of epitalon (0.00001% w w) reduces levels of lipid peroxidation products in aged D. melanogaster tissue homogenates.1 Epitalon (1 μg animal) delays age-related estrous shutdown and decreases the frequency of bone marrow cell chromosomal aberrations in female mice.2 It decreases spontaneous mammary gland and ovarian tumor development and metastasis in aged female mice.3 Epitalon also stimulates melatonin synthesis and normalizes the circadian rhythm of cortisol secretion in senescent female M. mulatta monkeys.4References1.

Cantrixil (TRX-E-002-1) is a second-generation super-benzopyran (SBP) compound, derived from TRX-E-002. It elicits an increase in phosphorylated c-Jun levels, leading to caspase-mediated apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. Cantrixil exhibits potent pan anti-cancer activity against various cancer phenotypes.
LP-184 (Compound 6), referred to as an acylfulvene analog, demonstrates the ability to inhibit tumor growth with noteworthy anti-cancer efficacy observed across multiple cell lines, including ovarian, colon, prostate, and pancreatic.
