KRAS (Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog) is one of the most important oncogenic driver genes in oncology, with high mutation frequencies in pancreatic cancer, non‑small cell lung cancer, and colorectal cancer. For a long time, KRAS was considered "undruggable" due to the lack of suitable small‑molecule binding pockets on its protein surface. In recent years, with the discovery of the switch‑II pocket and the successful approval of KRAS G12C inhibitors, KRAS‑targeted research has achieved groundbreaking progress, which has also spurred a wave of development targeting non‑G12C mutants such as G12D and G12V, as well as upstream and downstream regulatory factors including SOS1 and SHP2.
MCE KRAS Targeted Compound Library contains 82 small‑molecule compounds targeting the KRAS, serving as high‑quality research tools for mechanistic studies of KRAS‑mutant tumors, combination therapy development, resistance mechanism exploration, and high‑throughput drug screening, thereby providing robust support for KRAS‑targeted drug discovery.

Research Areas:
P53/TLR2 modulator-1 (Compound Z9) is a modulator that targets both the P53 pathway and TLR2 simultaneously, exhibiting anti-radiation activity. P53/TLR2 modulator-1 reduces apoptosis by inhibiting the radiation-induced expression of P53 and Bax. At the same time, it activates the TLR2 pathway, upregulates the expression of downstream proteins MyD88 and P65, and promotes the secretion of cytokines such as IL-6, thus exerting an anti-radiation effect. P53/TLR2 modulator-1 shows significant anti-radiation activity against both AHH-1 cells and HUVECs. It can also increase the survival rate of C57BL/6J mice irradiated with a lethal dose of radiation and reduce the damage to their hematopoietic system, the villous structure of the small intestine, and the spleen caused by radiation. P53/TLR2 modulator-1 can be used in the research of radiation injury-related diseases .

The PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway controls many cellular processes that are important for the formation and progression of cancer, including apoptosis, transcription, translation, metabolism, angiogenesis, and cell cycle progression. Every major node of this signaling network is activated in a wide range of human tumors. Mechanisms for the pathway activation include activation of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) upstream of PI3K, mutation or amplification of PIK3CA encoding p110α catalytic subunit of PI3K, mutation or loss of PTEN tumor suppressor gene, and mutation or amplification of Akt1. Once the pathway is activated, signaling through Akt can stimulate a series of substrates including mTOR which is involved in protein synthesis. Thus, inhibition of this pathway is an attractive concept for cancer prevention and/or therapy. Currently some mTOR inhibitors are approved for several indications, and there are several novel PI3K/Akt/mTOR inhibitors in clinical trials.
MCE owns a unique collection of 1,149 compounds that can be used for PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway research. PI3K/Akt/mTOR Compound Library also acts as a useful tool for anti-cancer drug discovery.

Ion channels are key proteins on the cell membrane that regulate the flow of ions across membranes. They participate in nearly all physiological processes, including nerve conduction, muscle contraction, heart rhythm, and pain perception. Abnormalities in their function can lead to various serious diseases such as arrhythmia, epilepsy, hypertension, neuropathic pain, and cancer. Therefore, ion channels are highly valuable drug targets—over 15% of approved drugs target ion channels currently, demonstrating their irreplaceable therapeutic value in cardiovascular, neurological, and analgesic fields.
MCE has collected a library of over 5,000 reported ion channel-related bioactive compounds targeting major sites such as Na+ channels, K+ channels, Ca2+ channels, GABA receptors, iGluRs, and others. Using AI models, these compounds are characterized through both 2D representations (molecular fingerprints, pharmacophores) and 3D representations (3D conformation) to screen for a collection of lead-like compounds highly similar to known active molecules. Additionally, an hERG channel prediction algorithm integrating XGB and ISE mapping strategy is employed to assess and exclude potential cardiotoxicity in the library.. This step significantly reduces safety risks in subsequent screenings, particularly for ion channel drug development related to cardiovascular systems (e.g., Nav1.5, Cav1.2), effectively minimizing failures due to hERG inhibition and serving as a valuable tool for ion channel drug screening.
