Herkinorin is an opioid analgesic and an analogue of the natural product Salvinorin A. herkinorin is a μ-opioid agonist with more than 100x higher μ-opioid affinity and 50x lower κ-opioid affinity compared to Salvinorin A. Herkinorin is a semi-synthetic c
Ac-RGK(Ac)-AMC, fluorogenic substrate for assaying histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity in a two-step enzymatic reaction. The assay consists of the initial lysine deacetylation by HDAC followed by the release of the fluorescent group by trypsin.
S2116 is a powerful inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), and it is a derivative of N-alkylated tranylcypromine (TCP). S2116 exhibits its inhibitory effects by increasing H3K9 methylation and inducing reciprocal H3K27 deacetylation at super-enhancer regions. In TCP-resistant T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cells, S2116 triggers apoptosis by repressing the transcription of NOTCH3 and TAL1 genes. Furthermore, S2116 demonstrates significant growth retardation of T-ALL cells when xenotransplanted into mice.
BPK-25 is an active acrylamide compound that enhances the degradation of proteins in the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylation (NuRD) complex through a post-translational mechanism involving covalent protein interaction. Additionally, BPK-25 acts as an inhibitor of TMEM173 activation by the cyclic dinucleotide ligand cGAMP.
Bisthianostat, also known as CF367 or CF367;-C, is a novel Orally Efficacious Pan-HDAC Inhibitor. Bisthianostat selectively binds to and inhibits HDACs, which inhibits deacetylation of histone proteins and leads to the accumulation of highly acetylated histones. This may result in an induction of chromatin remodeling, the inhibition of tumor oncogene transcription, and the selective transcription of tumor suppressor genes. This prevents cell division, induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. This may inhibit the proliferation of susceptible tumor cells. HDACs, upregulated in many tumor cell types, are a family of enzymes that deacetylate histone proteins.
Nanatinostat, also known as Tractinostat, CHR-3996 and VRx-3996, is an orally bioavailable, second-generation hydroxamic acid-based inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) with potential antineoplastic activity. HDAC inhibitor CHR-3996 inhibits HDAC, resulting in an accumulation of highly acetylated histones, the induction of chromatin remodeling, and the selective transcription of tumor suppressor genes; these events may result in the inhibition of tumor cell division and the induction of tumor cell apoptosis. This agent may upregulate HSP70 and downregulate anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins more substantially than some first-generation HDAC inhibitors. HDACs, upregulated in many tumor cell types, are a family of metalloenzymes responsible for the deacetylation of chromatin histone proteins.
