Aloperine is widely used to treat patients with allergic contact dermatitis eczema and other skin inflammation in China. Aloperine induces apoptosis and autophagy in HL-60 cells.

Deguelin, a naturally occurring rotenoid, acts as a chemopreventive agent by blocking multiple pathways like PI3K-Akt, IKK-NF-κB, and MAPK-mTOR-survivin-mediated apoptosis. Deguelin binding to Hsp90 leads to a decreased expression of numerous oncogenic proteins, including MEK1/2, Akt, HIF1α, COX-2, and NF-κB.

GSK621 is a specific AMPK activator, with IC₅₀ values of 13-30 μM for AML cells. GSK621 induces autophagy and apoptosis. GSK621 induces eiF2α phosphorylation-a hallmark of UPR activation.

Pyrazinamide (Pyrazinecarboxamide; Pyrazinoic acid amide) is a potent and orally active antitubercular antibiotic. Pyrazinamide is a proagent that is converted to the active form pyrazinoic acid (POA) by PZase/nicotinamidase encoded by the pncA gene in M. tuberculosis.

BL-918 is an orally active UNC-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) activator with an EC₅₀ of 24.14 nM. BL-918 exerts its cytoprotective autophagic effect by targeting ULK complex. BL-918 has the potential for Parkinson’s disease (PD) treatment.

AT9283 is a multi-targeted kinase inhibitor with potent activity against Aurora A/B, JAK2/3, Abl (T315I) and Flt3 (IC₅₀s ranging from 1 to 30 nM). AT9283 inhibits growth and survival of multiple solid tumors in vitro and in vivo.

Momordin Ic is an orally active triterpenoid saponin that can be isolated from Kochia scoparia. It is also a SUMO specific protease 1 (SENP1) inhibitor, SENP1/c-MYC signaling pathway inhibitor, and apoptosis inducer. Momordin Ic induces autophagy and apoptosis in liver cancer cells through the PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling pathways mediated by reactive oxygen species. Momordin Ic has the ability to control glucose induced blood glucose elevation, inhibit gastric emptying, resist rheumatoid arthritis, reduce CCl₄ (HY-Y0298) induced hepatotoxicity and anti-tumor activity.

Fangchinoline is isolated from Stephania tetrandra with extensive biological activities, such as enhancing immunity, anti-inflammatory sterilization and anti-atherosclerosis. Fangchinoline, a novel HIV-1 inhibitor, inhibits HIV-1 replication by impairing gp160 proteolytic processing. Fangchinoline targets Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and suppresses FAK-mediated signaling pathway in tumor cells which highly expressed FAK. Fangchinoline induces apoptosis and adaptive autophagy in bladder cancer.

Britannin is an NLRP3 inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 3.630 μM, exhibiting anti-inflammatory activity. Britannin inhibits the activation and assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome by blocking the interaction between NLRP3 and NEK7. Additionally, Britannin demonstrates antitumor activity by inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells through blocking the interaction between HIF-1α and Myc, thereby suppressing PD-L1 expression and enhancing cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity. Britannin can also induce apoptosis and autophagy in liver cancer cells by activating ROS-regulated AMPK. Britannin holds promise for research in the fields of anti-inflammatory and antitumor therapeutics.

MK-5108 is a highly potent and specific inhibitor of Aurora A kinase with an IC₅₀ value of 0.064 nM.

Sirtinol is a sirtuin (SIRT) inhibitor, with IC₅₀s of 48 μM, 57.7 μM and 131 μM for ySir2, hSIRT2 and hSIRT2, respectively.

SB 202190 hydrochloride is a selective p38 MAP kinase inhibitor with IC₅₀s of 50 nM and 100 nM for p38α and p38β2, respectively. SB 202190 hydrochloride binds to the ATP pocket of the active recombinant human p38 kinase with a K_d of 38 nM. SB 202190 hydrochloride has anti-cancer activity. SB202190 hydrochloride induces autophagy.
