Azido-C3-UV-biotin is a PEG-based linker for PROTACs which joins two essential ligands, crucial for forming PROTAC molecules. This linker enables selective protein degradation by leveraging the ubiquitin-proteasome system within cells.
Sanshool is a natural product isolated from Zanthoxylum bungeanum. Sanshool improves UVB-induced skin photodamage by targeting JAK2/STAT3-dependent autophagy.
Glycerophosphoinositol lysine has an anti-dandruff, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging activity. It significantly suppresses UVB - induced PGE secretion in NHEK keratinocytes.
MHY884 is an inhibitor of tyrosinase that acts by inhibiting UVB-induced activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway through the downregulation of oxidative stress.
1-O-Hexadecyl-sn-glycerol is a bioactive alkyl glyceryl ether. It reduces UVB-induced cell death and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and prostaglandin E2 in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). 1-O-Hexadecyl-sn-glycerol (50 μM) increases coronary flow and left ventricular developed pressure and reduces malondialdehyde (MDA) formation ex vivo in a rat heart model of ischemia reperfusion injury.

Lumisterol (9β,10α-Ergosterol), a steroid compound, is the (9β,10α)-stereoisomer of Ergosterol. Lumisterol is a photoprotective agent against UVB-induced DNA damage and anti-proliferative activities[1]. [1]. Anyamanee Chaiprasongsuk, et al.
