RC363 is an inhibitor of ferroptosis and a derivative of the antioxidant and hypocholesterolemic agent probucol .1It reduces 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals by approximately 40% in a cell-free assay when used at a concentration of 25 μM. RC363 prevents glutamate-induced toxicity in HT22 cultured hippocampal cells (IC50= 234.5 nM) but does not reduce oxidant levels in these cells. It increases the levels of glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) and the activity of GPX in glutamate-challenged HT22 cells when used at a concentration of 3 μM. RC363 inhibits ferroptosis induced by the GPX4 inhibitor RSL3 in HT22 cells (IC50= 173.6 nM). 1.Bueno, D.C., Canto, R.F.S., de Souza, V., et al.New probucol analogues inhibit ferroptosis, improve mitochondrial parameters, and induce glutathione peroxidase in HT22 cellsMol.

RC574 is an inhibitor of ferroptosis and a derivative of the antioxidant and hypocholesterolemic agent probucol .1It inhibits glutamate-induced cell death in HT22 cells (IC50= 276.2 nM) and mouse primary cortical neurons when used at a concentration of 3 μM. RC574 (3 μM) increases glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) levels and GPX activity, as well as inhibits glutamate-induced mitochondrial superoxide anion production, in HT22 cells. It completely inhibits ferroptosis induced by the GPX4 inhibitor RSL3 in HT22 cells when used at concentrations ranging from 62.5 to 1,000 nM. 1.Bueno, D.C., Canto, R.F.S., de Souza, V., et al.New probucol analogues inhibit ferroptosis, improve mitochondrial parameters, and induce glutathione peroxidase in HT22 cellsMol.

CP21 is an iron chelator that binds to iron in a 3:1 (ligand:iron) ratio. It is active against P. falciparum when used at concentrations of 10 and 100 µM. CP21 inhibits production of prostaglandin I2 induced by epinephrine, arachidonic acid, or A23187 in isolated rat aortic rings with IC50 values of 1.3, 1.3, and 1.4 mM, respectively. It inhibits glutamate-induced oxytosis, as well as decreases iodoacetic acid-induced cytotoxicity in an in vitro model of ischemia, in HT22 mouse hippocampal cells (EC50s = 13 and 9.5 µM, respectively). CP21 (200 mg kg) increases the excretion of iron, but not copper, zinc, calcium, or magnesium, in rabbits.
Morachalcone A displays significant tyrosinase inhibitory activity (IC50, 0.013 uM); it also exerts strong pancreatic lipase inhibition with IC 50 value of 6.2 uM. Morachalcone A exhibits neuroprotective effects on HT22-immortalized hippocampal cells agai
Nudiposide has significant neuroprotective activities against glutamate-injured neurotoxicity in HT22 cells. It also exhibits protective effect against sepsis in a mouse model and can decrease the plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-10 and ALT activity.
Sanggenol O is an active compound extracted from Morus alba, exhibiting hepatoprotective and neuroprotective activities with EC50 values exceeding 80 μM in HepG2 and HT22 cells [1].
