Thapsigargin 属于天然产物，是一种肌/内质网 Ca2+ ATP 酶 (SERCA) 的抑制剂，也是一种内质网应激诱导剂。Thapsigargin 通过阻断细胞将钙泵入肌浆和内质网的能力来提高胞浆钙浓度。

Guanidine hydrochloride (Aminoformamidine Hydrochloride) 是一种强离液剂和一种蛋白质的强变性剂。

(-)-Epigallocatechin (Epigallocatechin) 是绿茶中含量最丰富的黄酮类天然产物，可与未折叠的天然多肽结合，阻止转化为淀粉样蛋白原纤维。

Nemorosone is a polycyclic polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) originally isolated from C. rosea that has antiproliferative properties.1 Nemorosone inhibits growth of NB69, Kelly, SK-N-AS, and LAN-1 neuroblastoma cells (IC50s = 3.1-6.3 μM), including several drug-resistant clones, but not MRC-5 human embryonic fibroblasts (IC50 = >40 μM).2 It increases DNA fragmentation in LAN-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and decreases N-Myc protein levels and phosphorylation of ERK1/2 by MEK1/2. Nemorosone also inhibits growth of Capan-1, AsPC-1, and MIA-PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells (IC50s = 4.5-5.0 μM following a 72-hour treatment) but not human dermal and foreskin fibroblasts (IC50s = >35 μM).1 It induces apoptosis, abolishes the mitochondrial membrane potential, and increases cytosolic calcium concentration in pancreatic cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. Nemorosone activates the caspase cascade in a dose-dependent manner and inhibits cell cycle progression, increasing the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase, in both neuroblastoma and pancreatic cancer cells.1,2 Nemorosone (50 mg/kg, i.p., per day) also reduces tumor growth in an MIA-PaCa-2 mouse xenograft model.3References1.

Mycothiazole 是一种线粒体电子传递链 (ETC) 复合物 I 的抑制剂，在癌细胞 Huh7 (IC50为 55.8 μM)、U87 和 MCF7 中展现出细胞毒性，并在 Huh7 中诱导细胞凋亡 (apoptosis)。它通过调节未折叠蛋白反应 (UPR) 和热休克反应 (HSR) 相关的转录因子 ATFS-1 和 HSF1，延长 C. elegans 的寿命。
