Cefotetan is a binding agent that targets human Raf1 kinase inhibitor protein (hRKIP). Cefotetan binds to hRKIP, reduces the binding space between hRKIP and Raf1 kinase, relieves hRKIP's inhibition of the Ras/Raf1/MEK/ERK signaling pathway, and enhances ERK phosphorylation. Cefotetan can be used to study diseases associated with dysregulated Ras/Raf1/MEK/ERK signaling pathways. Cefotetan is also a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent that disrupts cell wall synthesis by binding to bacterial penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). It is used to study bacterial infections such as bone, skin, urinary tract, and lower respiratory tract.

TriDAP dihydrochloride (L-Ala-γ-D-Glu-meso-diaminopimelic acid dihydrochloride) is a NOD1 agonist with a K_d value of 34.5 μM. TriDAP dihydrochloride enhances the binding of NOD1-RICK, promotes RICK phosphorylation, and activates the NF-κB, TAK1, MEK/ERK, p38 and interferon response pathways. TriDAP dihydrochloride downregulates Runx2 via increasing ubiquitination and reduces trabecular bone parameters. TriDAP dihydrochloride decreases IκBα levels and increases p65 levels. TriDAP dihydrochloride induces the secretion of proinflammatory mediators IL-8 and prostaglandins, triggers tissue inflammation and innate immune activation, and inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in lung epithelial cells. TriDAP dihydrochloride increases the RANKL/OPG ratio in mice, reduces bone mass and enhances osteoclast activity, and inhibits new bone formation by decreasing the mineralization deposition rate in mice. TriDAP dihydrochloride can be used in research related to pulpitis, chronic ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease and SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Notoginsenoside R2 (20(S)-Notoginsenoside R2; Ginsenoside Ng-R2) is an orally active notoginsenoside. Notoginsenoside R2 activates P90RSK and Nrf2 via the MEK1/2-ERK1/2 pathway to inhibit 6-OHDA-induced apoptotic damage in nerve cells. Notoginsenoside R2 upregulates SOX8/β-catenin by reducing miR-27a, thereby suppressing Aβ_25-35-induced neuronal apoptosis and inflammatory responses. Notoginsenoside R2 alleviates lipid accumulation and mitochondrial dysfunction in diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting c-Src. Notoginsenoside R2 alleviates hepatic fibrosis by inducing hepatic stellate cell senescence and inhibiting the inflammatory microenvironment via JAK/STAT3 suppression. Notoginsenoside R2 can be used in research related to Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, diabetic nephropathy and hepatic fibrosis.

Simetryn is a triazine herbicide that exerts teratogenicity. Simetryn inhibits photosynthesis by blocking electron transfer in the chloroplast photosystem II and activates the MEK/Erk signaling pathway. Simetryn triggers vascular and developmental abnormalities in zebrafish and tadpoles, suppresses proliferation, enhances apoptosis, and induces malformations. Simetryn serves as a tool to establish a zebrafish model for studying arteriovenous malformations and related pathogenesis. Simetryn controls paddy weeds and can be used for research on developmental and vascular disorders.

ML175 is a specific glutathione transferase Omega 1-1 (GSTO1-1) inhibitor. ML175 can significantly activate Akt and MEK1/2 kinases. ML175 can be used in the research of diseases such as Parkinson's disease.

LQEQ-19 (mouse, rat) is a VGF derived peptide that exerts neuroprotective effects. LQEQ-19 (mouse, rat) activates the PI3K/Akt and MEK/ERK signaling pathways by promoting phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2. LQEQ-19 (mouse, rat) is commonly used in the study of neurological conditions.

Ferroptosis inducer-7 is an orally active and selective ferroptosis inducer via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP₃R)/calcium release-activated calcium channel protein (ORAI). Ferroptosis inducer-7 exhibits a notable effect in alleviating anemia symptoms, suppressing bone marrow CTLs activation, and improving hematopoietic function in immune-mediated bone marrow failure. Ferroptosis inducer-7 can be studied in research for aplastic anemia.
