Eukaryotic Initiation Factor (eIF) Activator

1,3-Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]urea is a potent activator of eIF2α kinase heme regulated inhibitor. 1,3-Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]urea reduces the abundance of eIF2·GTP·tRNA_i^Met ternary complex. 1,3-Bis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]urea inhibits cancer cell proliferation.

ZNL-02-096 is a selective Wee1 PROTAC degrader. ZNL-02-096 binds to CRBN and Wee1 to form a ternary complex, inducing CRBN- and proteasome-dependent ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of Wee1. ZNL-02-096 inhibits recombinant PLK1 with an IC₅₀ of 102 nM, but does not induce its degradation in cells. ZNL-02-096 induces G₂/M phase arrest, Apoptosis, transient integrated stress response, upregulation of ATF4, and phosphorylation of GCN2. ZNL-02-096 reduces Tyr15 phosphorylation of CDK1. ZNL-02-096 can be used in research related to ovarian cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, triple-negative breast cancer, multiple myeloma, and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

eIF2B activator-1 (Compound 7a) is a eIF2B activator with a pEC₅₀ value of 7.3. eIF2B activator-1 exhibits significant hERG inhibitory activity, with a pIC₅₀ value of 5.7. eIF2B activator-1 can be used in research related to Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

ISR activator 3 (Compound cc81) is the active metabolite of A8. ISR activator 3 activates the integrated stress response (ISR) by binding to RIG-I (K_D ≈ 0.55 μM), without inducing lipid droplet clearance. ISR activator 3 enhances the interferon response under viral mimicry signals. ISR activator 3 can be used for research on neurodegenerative diseases and immune stress.

CDC25A/NF-κB-IN-1 is an effective dual-target inhibitor of CDC25A and NF-κB, and is a prodrug of Pt(IV). CDC25A/NF-κB-IN-1 has anticancer activity and low cytotoxicity to normal cells. CDC25A/NF-κB-IN-1 can trigger a variety of anticancer mechanisms, including S phase cell cycle arrest, mitochondrial endogenous apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, autophagy-dependent ferroptosis. CDC25A/NF-κB-IN-1 has good safety and can be used for ovarian cancer research.

L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid is a proline analog. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid upregulates the lipid autophagy marker LC3-II via activation of the PERK pathway. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid increases pro-apoptotic BAX protein. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid induces ATF6 cleavage and upregulates phosphorylated eIF2α levels. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid induces ER stress, inducing protein misfolding and aggregation. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid shows teratogenic, pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic effects.

ML291 (Standard) is the analytical standard of ML291 (HY-101991). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. ML291 is a UPR (unfolded protein response)-inducing sulfonamidebenzamide. ML291 overwhelms the adaptive capacity of the UPR and induces apoptosis in a variety of solid cancer models. ML291 can activate the PERK/eIF2a/CHOP (apoptotic) arm of the UPR and reduce leukemic cell burden.

Lard oil is an orally active biochemical reagent. Lard oil upregulates PERK, eIF2a, CHOP, OPN, TLR2, TLR4, TNF-α, and downregulates GRP78 and IRE1a. Lard oil induces responses such as body fat accumulation, elevated serum insulin levels, increased HOMA-IR, hepatic ectopic lipid deposition, hepatic endoplasmic reticulum stress, and hepatic inflammation. Lard oil can be used in studies related to diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene (Hydroxyhydroquinone) (Standard) is the analytical standard of 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene (HY-W010451). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene (Hydroxyhydroquinone) is an ER stress inducer that targets proteins such as PKR-like ER kinase PERK to induce cytotoxicity. 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene selectively activates eIF2α phosphorylation, activates the PERK-eIF2α signaling pathway and induces stress granule formation. 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene subsequently exacerbates oxidative stress and causes DNA double-strand breaks, destroying organelles such as mitochondria and ER, and inducing cell death. 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene also has the potential to exhibit anti-tumor effect, increase blood pressure, and relieve spasm.
