Nature has been a source of medicinal products for millennia, with many useful active substances developed from plant sources. In the 20th century, the discovery of the penicillin was the starting point for drug discovery from microbial sources. Microorganisms, which have been considered to be a rich source of unique bioactive compounds, play an important role in the development of the chemistry of natural products and medical therapy. Microbial metabolites have proved to be affective antimicrobial agents, anti-tumor agents, enzyme inhibitors, anti-inflammatory agents, etc. Today, many microbial-originated antibiotics are available in the mark, and a large number of bioactive metabolites are used in medicine.
MCE provides a unique collection of 939 microbial metabolites, which is an important source of lead compounds and can be used for drug discovery.

Targeted cancer therapies are drugs or other substances that block the growth and spread of cancer by interfering with specific molecular targets that are involved in the growth, progression, and spread of cancer.
There are several different types of targeted therapy. The most common types are small-molecule drugs and monoclonal antibodies. Small-molecule drugs are small enough to enter cells easily, so they are used for targets that are inside cells, while monoclonal antibodies are usually used for targets that are located outside the cells. Because of high specificity, low side effect and potent anticancer activity, targeted therapy has become the mainstream of new anti-tumor drugs. Various targeted therapies have been approved by FDA and used in the treatment of diseases.
MCE carefully collects a unique of 106 targeted therapy drugs used in cancer treatment. MCE Targeted therapy drug library is a useful tool for the research of targeted therapy.
Sodium channels conduct sodium ions (Na+) through a cell's plasma membrane that are the source of excitatory currents for the nervous system and muscle. Na channels are classified according to the trigger that opens the channel for such ions, i.e. either a voltage-change (Voltage-gated, voltage-sensitive, or voltage-dependent sodium channel also called VGSCs or Nav channel) or a binding of a substance (a ligand) to the channel (ligand-gated sodium channels). Dysfunction in voltage-gated sodium channels correlates with neurological and cardiac diseases, including epilepsy, myopathies, pain and cardiac arrhythmias. Sodium channel blockers are used in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmia, pain and convulsion.
MCE offers a unique collection of 199 sodium channel blocker and antagonists, all of which have the identified inhibitory effect on sodium channels. MCE Sodium Channel Blocker Library can be used for neurological and cardiac diseases drug discovery and sodium channel research.
The health benefits deriving from the consumption of certain foods have been common knowledge. All foods are made up of chemical substances. Chemicals in foods are largely harmless and often desirable. At present, numerous researchers have been focused on the beneficial role played by certain food components in the close relationship between food intake and health status. For example, polyphenols, a common class of compounds among foods, are well-known antioxidants, which may play a role in the prevention of several diseases including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer.
MCE supplies a unique collection of 2,064 compounds from variety of foods. All compounds are with specific food source(s). MCE Food-Sourced Compound Library is the useful tool to discover molecules with pharmaceutical activity from foods.
Dietary supplement, also known as nutritional supplement or food supplement, include dietary components such as vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. The unique value of dietary supplement is particularly significant in the post-pandemic era. Compared to traditional medication, dietary supplement is often more readily accepted by the public due to their higher safety profile and the natural origin. By orally supplementing essential nutrients and bioactive substances, dietary supplement can help to enhance the body's health level and reduce the risk of diseases. For certain chronic conditions, proper dietary supplement can also serve as a powerful adjunct to conventional medical treatment, enhancing the effectiveness of medication.
MCE has included 69 dietary supplements, whose ingredients are all derived from the official lists published by authoritative organizations such as the FDA, EFSA, NMPA, etc. These compounds can be utilized in the development of health food products and for the mechanistic research of certain chronic diseases.Diarrhea is a disease symptom, and the pathophysiologic basis of diarrhea is a disturbance in intestinal water and electrolyte balance, which may be due to increased secretion of osmotically active electrolytes (secretory diarrhea) or increased intake of osmotically active substances (osmotic diarrhea). Food poisoning, pathogenic bacterial infections, and intestinal-related diseases can all contribute to the development of diarrhea. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) considers diarrhea to be a symptom of an imbalance in the body's systems, particularly related to the functions of the spleen and stomach. Spleen qi deficiency, dampness-heat, liver and spleen disharmony are closely related to diarrhea. Many types of Chinese herbs regulate the function of diarrhea, such as: Dysosmae Verspiellis Rhixoma Et Radix, Ginkgo Semen, Forsythiae Fructus, and Campsis Flos.
MCE can provide 2,478 active monomers that can be obtained from TCM herbs with diarrhea-regulating functions, which can be applied to drug development and disease mechanism research.
