Anisomelic acid is a human papillomavirus HPV16 E6 and HPV E7 depletor. Anisomelic acid directly interacts with HPV16 E6, promotes its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation by recruiting E3 ubiquitin ligase, downregulates E6 and facilitates E7 degradation. Anisomelic acid induces endogenous mitochondrial apoptosis, activates caspase-3, causes cleavage of PARP, and triggers p53-independent endogenous apoptosis by depleting cIAP2. Anisomelic acid can be used in research related to HPV-positive cancers and cervical cancer.

MX107 is a selective and potent survivin inhibitor that suppresses triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell proliferation. MX107 induces degradation of survivin and inhibitor-of-apoptosis proteins (IAPs), which inhibits nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation induced by DNA damage. MX107 enhances tumoricidal efficacy of genotoxic treatments synergized with chemotherapeutic drugs.

XIAP antagonist 1 degrades rather than inhibits XIAP, catalyzing rapid degradation of XIAP through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway[2].
