AZD7325 is a moderate CYP1A2 and a potent CYP3A4 inducer in vitro. AZD7325 has the potential for the investigation of anxiety and dravet syndrome. PAM: positive allosteric modulator.

Fipronil is a broad-spectrum insecticide effective against Lepidoptera species as well as thrips, locusts, ants, cockroaches, fleas and ticks. Fipronil selectively inhibits GABA receptor with IC₅₀s of 30 nM and 1600 nM for cockroach and rat GABA receptors, respectively. Glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls), which are present in cockroaches but not in mammals, are sensitive to the blocking effect of Fipronil. Fipronil also induces apoptosis in HepG2 cells and promotes the expression of CYP1A1 and CYP3A4 mRNA in human hepatocytes.

β-Apo-8'-carotenal (Apocarotenal), an orally active provitamin A carotenoid. β-Apo-8'-carotenal can induce the expression of CYP1A through the Ah receptor-dependent pathway. β-Apo-8'-carotenal can induce cancer cells DNA strand breaks and lipid peroxidation. β-Apo-8'-carotenal can be used for the researches of cancer and metabolic disease.

Sudan IV is an agonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) that activates downstream signaling pathways and induces CYP1A1 expression. Sudan IV promotes CYP1A1 gene transcription by activating AhR-ARNT heterodimers and binding to exogenous response elements (XREs) on DNA, thereby enhancing drug metabolizing enzyme activity. Sudan IV can be used to study the toxicity mechanisms of industrial dyes and the effects of interactions with serum proteins (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA)) on their distribution in vivo. Sudan IV is a fat-soluble diazo dye that can be used to stain lipids, triglycerides, and lipoproteins on frozen sections.

Quinestrol (W-3566) is an orally effective synthetic estrogen compound that acts on CYP3A4, CYP1A2, and GnRH. Quinestrol interferes with GnRH release and disrupts the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. Quinestrol downregulates the gene expression of follicle-stimulating hormone β and luteinizing hormone β, induces oxidative stress, damages reproductive organs, reduces sperm density and motility, increases sperm malformation rate, and alters the levels of sex hormones such as testosterone, luteinizing hormone, estradiol, and progesterone. Quinestrol can be used in studies related to reproductive function regulation.

17-HETE is arachidonic acid metabolite through cytochrome P-450 pathways, which consists of 17R-HETE and 17S-HETE enantiomers. 17-HETE serves as allosteric activator of the cytochrome P450 1B1 and inhibitor of ATPase, induces cardic hypertrophy.

7-Epi-docetaxel (4-epi-Docetaxel; 7-Epidocetaxel; 7-Epitaxotere) is the major C7 epimeric impurity/in vivo metabolite of Docetaxel (HY-B0011). 7-Epi-docetaxel acts as a potent allosteric activator of rhCYP1B1. 7-Epi-docetaxel exhibits certain cell line-specific anti-migratory activity. 7-Epi-docetaxel can be used in research related to melanoma and lung adenocarcinoma.

Sudan IV (Standard) (Solvent Red 24 (Standard)) is the analytical standard of Sudan IV (HY-D0932). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Sudan IV is an agonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) that activates downstream signaling pathways and induces CYP1A1 expression. Sudan IV promotes CYP1A1 gene transcription by activating AhR-ARNT heterodimers and binding to exogenous response elements (XREs) on DNA, thereby enhancing drug metabolizing enzyme activity. Sudan IV can be used to study the toxicity mechanisms of industrial dyes and the effects of interactions with serum proteins (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA)) on their distribution in vivo. Sudan IV is a fat-soluble diazo dye that can be used to stain lipids, triglycerides, and lipoproteins on frozen sections.

Imiprothrin is an inducer that induces CYP1A2 and metallothionein 1a, with significant genotoxicity and cytotoxicity. In rat hepatocytes, Imiprothrin initiates detoxification responses by triggering the overexpression of these two genes. Imiprothrin induces chromosomal aberrations and micronucleus formation in rat bone marrow cells, and causes DNA damage in hepatocytes. Imiprothrin triggers oxidative stress in rats, leading to lipid peroxidation, excessive reactive oxygen species production and redox imbalance, which in turn impairs liver and kidney functions and causes tissue damage. Imiprothrin inhibits weight gain in mice, and even causes high mortality in female mice at high doses. However, it shows no carcinogenicity in rat experiments; among relevant indicators, aspartate aminotransferase and total protein are identified as sensitive toxicity biomarkers.

17S-HETE is arachidonic acid metabolite through cytochrome P-450 pathways. 17S-HETE serves as allosteric activator of the cytochrome P450 1B1 and inhibitor of ATPase, induces cardic hypertrophy.

Methysticin is a major kavalactone in kava extract to induce CYP1A1.

Sudan IV-d₆ (Solvent Red 24-d₆) is the deuterium labeled Sudan IV(HY-D0932). Sudan IV is an agonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) that activates downstream signaling pathways and induces CYP1A1 expression. Sudan IV promotes CYP1A1 gene transcription by activating AhR-ARNT heterodimers and binding to exogenous response elements (XREs) on DNA, thereby enhancing drug metabolizing enzyme activity. Sudan IV can be used to study the toxicity mechanisms of industrial dyes and the effects of interactions with serum proteins (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA)) on their distribution in vivo. Sudan IV is a fat-soluble diazo dye that can be used to stain lipids, triglycerides, and lipoproteins on frozen sections.

Versicolorin A is a biosynthetic precursor of Aflatoxin B1 (HY-N6615). Versicolorin A induces phosphorylation of p53. Versicolorin A activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor AhR and significantly induces the expression of CYP1A1. Versicolorin A exerts genotoxic and cytotoxic effects. Versicolorin A enhances the genotoxicity of aflatoxin B1 in cells by promoting CYP450-mediated bioactivation of aflatoxin B1. Versicolorin A can be used in research related to colorectal cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Aceanthrenequinone is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon quinone organic compound that belongs to the category of free radical photoinitiators. Aceanthrenequinone serves as an intermediate for dyes and pigments, and also acts as a substrate for organic synthesis and polymer materials. Aceanthrenequinone activates the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor pathway, induces the expression of CYP1A protein in the vascular system of zebrafish embryos, and causes the death of embryos at 120 hpf. Aceanthrenequinone is applicable to research related to industrial or biomedical applications.
