ML291 is a sufonamidebenzamide compound that induces the unfolded protein response (UPR) and overwhelms the adaptive capacity of UPR, resulting in apoptosis in various solid cancer models. It activates the PERK eIF2a CHOP apoptotic pathway of UPR and reduces leukemic cell burden [1].
(5E)-7-Oxozeaenol is a resorcylic acid lactone that has been found in the fungus MSX 63935 and has enzyme inhibitory and anticancer activities.1,2 It inhibits TGF-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK-1; IC50 = 1.3 μM).1 (5E)-7-Oxozeaenol inhibits proliferation of MCF-7, H460, SF-268, HT-29, and MDA-MB-435 human cancer cells with IC50 values of 4.9, 1.2, 5.6, 4.4, and 5.5 μM, respectively.2 |1.

7,10-dihydroxy-8(E)-Octadecenoic acid is a hydroxy fatty acid and metabolite of oleic acid that is produced byP. aeruginosafrom vegetable oils.1It is active against the food-borne pathogenic bacteriaS. aureus,S. typhimurium,L. monocytogenes,B. subtilis, andE. coli(MIC50s = 31.3, 125, 125, 62.5, and 250 μg ml, respectively), as well as the plant pathogenic bacteriaErwinia,R. solanacearum,C. glutamicum, andP. syringae(MIC90s = 125, 125, 250, and 500 μg ml, respectively).2,1 1.Sohn, H.-R., Bae, J.-H., Hou, C.T., et al.Antibacterial activity of a 7,10-dihydroxy-8(E)-octadecenoic acid against plant pathogenic bacteriaEnzyme Microb.

CAY10773 is a derivative of the ferroptosis inducer sorafenib .1It selectively inhibits proliferation of BEL-7402, MGC803, and T24 bladder cancer cells (IC50s = 5.77, 5.21 and 3.97 μM, respectively) over non-cancerous HCV-29 cells (IC50= 23.19 μM). CAY10773 induces apoptosis in T24 cells when used at concentrations ranging from 2 to 6 μM but induces ferroptosis at concentrations greater than or equal to 6 μM with 10 hour or longer incubation times. It increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreases the mitochondrial membrane potential in T24 cells. CAY10773 (≥6 μM) also induces autophagy with incubation times longer than eight hours. 1.Chen, J.-N., Li, T., Cheng, L., et al.Synthesis and in vitro anti-bladder cancer activity evaluation of quinazolinyl-arylurea derivativesEur.

9(E),11(E)-12-nitro Conjugated linoleic acid (9(E),11(E)-12-nitro CLA) is a nitrated fatty acid. It is formed from 9(Z),11(E)-CLA upon exposure to acidified nitrite, peroxynitrite, gaseous nitrogen dioxide, or a combination of myeloperoxidase, hydrogen peroxide, and nitrite.1It is also formed in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, an effect that can be reduced by the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor L-NAME .29(E),11(E)-12-nitro CLA has been found in human plasma. 1.Woodcock, S.R., Salvatore, S.R., Bonacci, G., et al.Biomimetic nitration of conjugated linoleic acid: Formation and characterization of naturally occurring conjugated nitrodienesJ.
