Hormones are a class of biologically active substances secreted by endocrine gland cells, which are transported through the circulatory system to various parts of the body, and precisely act on specific target organs or cells, playing a crucial role in regulating the growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction of organisms. The mechanisms of hormone action are diverse and complex. Some hormones (such as corticosteroids, vitamin D, and thyroid hormones) can enter the cell interior and interact with receptors in the nucleus, thereby regulating gene expression and affecting cell function. Other hormones (such as growth hormone and thyrotropin-releasing hormone) bind directly to receptors on the cell surface, exerting their effects by regulating enzyme activity or influencing the state of ion channels. Additionally, hormones play a key role in the study of endocrine and metabolic diseases, and are closely related to the development of diseases such as diabetes and thyroid diseases.
MCE has included 86 human hormone compounds, which is of great significance for the study of human metabolic pathways, and can also be used to build a metabonomics database.
Biotoxins, also referred to as natural toxins, are chemical substances produced by plants, animals, or microorganisms that exert toxic effects on other living organisms. Due to unique biological activities, biotoxins have been widely applied in molecular biology, physiology, pharmacology, and the clinical diagnosis and treatment of various human diseases, becoming an important source of natural drug development. Biotoxins can specifically bind to and interfere with intracellular signaling molecules or receptors, thereby altering cellular signaling processes. Leveraging this characteristic, biotoxins can be used to study the regulatory mechanisms of cellular signaling pathways. For example, neurotoxins such as snake venom peptides can be used to investigate the functional regulation of neurotransmitter receptors and ion channels. Additionally, biotoxins have demonstrated significant potential in drug development across various fields, including neurological diseases, cardiovascular diseases, anticoagulation, and anti-cancer therapies. With advancements in high throughput screening, structural optimization, and antibody-toxin conjugation technologies, numerous biotoxins or their structural analogs have been successfully brought to market, such as Ziconotide, Captopril, Bivalirudin, and Eptifibatide.
MCE offers 91 types of biotoxins, including neurotoxins, cardiotoxins, mycotoxins, and more.
