D18 is an immunemodulator that acts as a dual agonist for TLR7 8 (with EC50 values of 24 nM for hTLR7 and 10 nM for hTLR8, respectively). It enhances the expression of PD-L1 through epigenetic regulation, thereby increasing the sensitivity of tumors to PD-1 PD-L1 blockade. Additionally, D18 functions as a cytotoxin for ADC synthesis, specifically for the ADC HE-S2 [1].
FTY720 is a derivative of ISP-1 (myriocin), a fungal metabolite of the Chinese herb Iscaria sinclarii as well as a structural analog of sphingosine. It is a novel immunemodulator that prolongs allograft transplant survival in numerous models by inhibiting lymphocyte emigration from lymphoid organs. FTY720 is phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase, which then acts as a potent agonist at four of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors (S1P1, S1P3, S1P4, and S1P5). Down-regulation of S1P1 receptors on T and B lymphocytes by FTY720 results in defective egress of these cells from spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patch. azido-FTY720 is a highly photoreactive analog of FTY720 that can be used to identify receptor binding sites for this ligand.
IL-17A modulator-1 is an effective inhibitor of IL-17A activity, exhibiting a pIC 50 value of 8.2. This compound holds great promise for studying diseases and disorders that involve the modulation of IL-17A, such as immune-related diseases, autoimmune pathologies, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders.
IL-17A modulator-2, exhibits inhibitory properties towards IL-17A, with a pIC50 of 8.3. Its effectiveness lies in attenuating the biological effects associated with IL-17A activity. IL-17A modulator-2 finds utility in the study of diseases and disorders characterized by dysregulated IL-17A modulation, such as those involving immune dysfunction, autoimmune pathology, cancer, and neurodegenerative conditions.
