Pirenoxine is an agent with anti-cataractogenesis activity by interacting with calciumions or selenite which could lead to the formation of lens cataract.
8-CPT-2Me-cAMP sodium is a sodium salt compound that selectively activates exchange proteins activated by cAMP (Epac). These Epac proteins are cAMP-sensitive guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) responsible for activating small GTPases Rap1 and Rap2. 8-CPT-2Me-cAMP sodium specifically activates Epac1 with an EC50 value of 2.2 μM, while showing no activation of PKA with an EC50 value greater than 10 μM [1]. Additionally, 8-CPT-2Me-cAMP sodium stimulates the Epac-mediated release of calciumions (Ca2+) in vitro in pancreatic β-cells [2].
Calcium diglutamate(CDG), calcium acid salt of glutamic acid. As a soluble source of calciumions, this chemical is used as a first-aid treatment for exposure to hydrofluoric acid.
Deethylindanomycin is a polyether antibiotic that has been found in S. setonii. It is active against a variety of Gram-positive bacteria, including various strains of S. aureus and Streptococcus, as well as one strain of S. pneumoniae (MICs = 4, 4, and 2 μg ml, respectively). It is also active against coccidia in vitro, inhibiting E. tenella development, but is inactive against E. tenella infection in chicks when administered at a dose of 200 μg g in the diet. Deethylindanomycin acts as an ionophore in lipid bilayer membranes and is more selective for potassium ions than calcium, magnesium, and sodium ions. It induces histamine release from rodent mast cells and human basophils in vitro in a calcium-dependent manner.
SOR-C13 is an inhibitor of transient receptor potential cation channel vanilloid family member 6 (TRPV6, CaT1 or CATL) with potential antineoplastic activity. TRPV6 calcium channel inhibitor SOR-C13 binds to TRPV6 and prevents the influx of calciumions into TRPV6-expressing tumor cells. This inhibits the activation of nuclear factor of activated T-cell (NFAT) transcription complex which may result in an inhibition of calcium-dependent cancer cell proliferation and an induction of apoptosis in tumor cells overexpressing TRPV6.
