Edelfosine
0 ImagesSynonyms: ET-18-OCH3Edelfosine (ET-18-OCH3) is an orally active lipid raft modulator and apoptosis inducer that alters membrane fluidity and preferentially inserts into tumor cell membranes. Edelfosine recruits death receptor ligands (FasL/CD95L, TRAIL) and Bid to lipid rafts to form death-inducing signaling complexes, thereby initiating mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and inducing cytochrome c release. Edelfosine also exerts anti-inflammatory effects, promotes L-Selectin shedding, and causes no gastrointestinal or organ toxicity. In addition, Edelfosine inhibits nucleic acid and protein synthesis in Leishmania donovani and exhibits antiproliferative activity. Edelfosine can be used in research on multiple myeloma, inflammatory bowel diseases (such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), and visceral leishmaniasis.

Ethyl cinnamate is a fragrance ingredient used as a food flavor and additive for cosmetic products. Ethyl cinnamate is also an excellent clearing reagent for mammalian tissues. Ethyl cinnamate suppresses tumor growth through anti-angiogenesis by attenuating VEGFR2 signal pathway in colorectal cancer. Ethyl cinnamate inhibits the tonic contractions induced by high K+ and phenylephrine (PE) with respective IC50 values of 0.30 mM and 0.38 mM in rat aorta.
-
Lapachol
0 ImagesLapachol, a natural naphthoquinone, is an orally active, potent DHODH inhibitor. Lapachol has immunosuppressive activity on lymphocytes through its direct ability to block DHODH activity and inhibit pyrimidine synthesis. Lapachol is a vitamin K antagonist with antitumor activity and can inhibit DNA and RNA synthesis in neoplastic cells. Lapachol has anti-Leishmania activity.
-
Chloroxine
0 ImagesChloroxine is one of the important 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative. Chloroxine has effective antibacterial, antifungal, antiprotozoal and antiamoebic activities, especially used in treating the intestinal amebiasis. Chloroxine is also used in the treatment of dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp.

SKF-83566
0 ImagesSKF-83566 is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable D1/D5 dopamine receptor antagonist with a Ki value of approximately 0.4-0.56 nM. SKF-83566 modulates locomotor behavior and spatial memory by blocking D1 receptors and inhibits glioblastoma progression by targeting the DRD1/c-Myc/UHRF1 pathway. SKF-83566 acts as an inhibitor of the dopamine transporter (DAT) and adenylyl cyclase 2 (AC2). SKF-83566 competitively binds to DAT to inhibit dopamine reuptake and non-competitively inhibits AC2 activity, thereby reducing cAMP accumulation. SKF-83566 is used in research areas such as dopaminergic system mechanisms, learning and memory, targeted intervention for glioblastoma, AC2 pathophysiology, antiparasitic drug screening, and synaptic plasticity (the "gating effect").
