Natalizumab (Anti-CD49d) (AN100226; BG00002) Solution is a humanized monoclonal IgG4 antibody inhibitor that selectively targets α4 integrin (CD49d), blocking the interaction of integrins such as α4β1 (VLA-4) with vascular cell adhesion molecule VCAM-1, intercellular adhesion molecule ICAM-1, and fibronectin by competitively binding to the α4 subunit. Natalizumab solution inhibits the adhesion, retention, and transendothelial migration of immune cells (such as CD4⁺ T cells), reducing the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the central nervous system or lesion sites, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activity. Natalizumab (Anti-CD49d) solution is used in the study of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and is also applied in the research of autoimmune or inflammation-related diseases such as Crohn's disease, B-cell lymphoma, and non-infectious uveitis. Natalizumab (Anti-CD49d) can also prevent lymphocytes from entering the central nervous system, thus preventing acute demyelinating relapses.

Atacicept (TACI-Ig) is a is a recombinant fusion protein containing the extracellular, ligand-binding portion of the TACI receptor and the Fc portion of human IgG. Atacicept inhibits B cell stimulation by binding to B lymphocyte stimulator and a proliferation-inducing ligand. Atacicept can be used in research of B-cell autoimmune disease.

Cardamonin can be found from cardamom, and can target various signaling molecules, transcriptional factors, cytokines and enzymes. Cardamonin can inhibit mTOR, NF-κB, Akt, STAT3, Wnt/β-catenin and COX-2. Cardamonin shows anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antidiabetic activities.

Calcipotriol monohydrate is a synthetic VitD3 analogue with a high affinity for the vitamin D receptor.

Pamoic acid (Embonic acid) is a potent GPR35 agonist with an EC₅₀ of 79 nM. Pamoic acid exhibits neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties.

Meclofenamic acid (Meclofenamate) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Meclofenamic acid is a highly selective FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated) enzyme inhibitor. Meclofenamic acid competes with FTO binding for the m(6)A-containing nucleic acid. Meclofenamic acid is a non-selective gap-junction blocker. Meclofenamic acid inhibits hKv2.1 and hKv1.1, with IC₅₀ values of 56.0 and 155.9 μM, respectively.

Helenalin is an anti-inflammatory sesquiterpene lactone. Helenalin selectively inhibits transcription factor NF-κB by directly targeting p65. Helenalin has alkylating activity, targets the cysteine sulfhydryl groups in the p65 subunit of NF-κB, thereby inhibits its DNA binding.

Sodium citrate (Trisodium citrate) dihydrate is an orally active natural product that can be found in citrus fruits. Sodium citrate dihydrate can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and induce apoptosis. Sodium citrate dihydrate has antibacterial, anti-tumor and antioxidant activities. Sodium citrate dihydrate can be prepared as a cosolvent or buffer.

Brazilin is a red dye precursor obtained from the heartwood of several species of tropical hardwoods. Brazilin inhibits the cells proliferation, promotes apoptosis, and induces autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR pathway. Brazilin shows chondroprotective and anti-inflammatory activities.

DPTIP is a potent brain penetrant neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (N-SMase 2) inhibitor (exosome inhibitor), with an IC₅₀ of 30 nM.

Diallyl Trisulfide is an orally active anticancer agent that can be isolated from garlic. Diallyl Trisulfide has the ability to induce apoptosis and exhibits anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities. Diallyl Trisulfide can be used to study a variety of cancers, including liver, colon and prostate cancer.

Purpurogallin is a naturally phenol extracted from the plants of Quercus spp, has potent xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 0.2 μM. Purpurogallin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

4'-Hydroxy diclofenac is an orally active metabolite of Diclofenac (HY-15036) by cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9). 4'-Hydroxy diclofenac has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.

Acetylshikonin is an oral active anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-fertility, antibacterial, and neuroprotective agent. Acetylshikonin is a inhibitor of acetylcholinase (AChE) (IC₅₀=34.6 μM) and nonselective cytochrome P450. Acetylshikonin can induce Apoptosis and Autophagy in cancer cells. Acetylshikonin regulates blood glucose, liver fat metabolism, and renal fibrosis, and is used in the study of diabetes, diabetic nephropathy (DN), obesity, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

4-DAMP (4-DAMP methiodide) is a potent and selective antagonist of M3 receptors and also has a high affinity for the closely-related M5 receptors. 4-DAMP combined with 5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) (HY-90006) could significantly reduce the cell viability and enhance apoptosis in MKN45 and BGC823 gastric cancer cells. 4-DAMP inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and tobacco-induced pulmonary inflammation and reduces mucin 5AC (MUC5AC), oligomeric mucus/gel-forming secretion.

Zinc Gluconate is a zinc supplement in the form of a gluconate salt, which plays a role in various physiological processes such as immune function, wound healing, and olfaction. Zinc Gluconate has a LD₅₀ of 39.6 mg/kg in mice (Tail vein injection). Zinc Gluconate can be used in the research of inflammation, zinc deficiency, colds, cancer, and nutritional supplements.

BGB-16673 (BGB-16673) is an orally active, selective BTK PROTAC degrader (IC₅₀=0.69 nM). BGB-16673 ligates BTK to E3 ubiquitin ligase, causing BTK to undergo polyubiquitination, which is then recognized and degraded by the proteasome, thereby exerting efficient BTK degradation activity. BGB-16673 can be used in the research of B-cell malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, and mantle cell lymphoma.
