Description: Ursolic acid, a naturally occurring triterpenoid, induces the apoptosis of human cancer cells through multiple signaling pathways.
In Vivo: UA significantly suppressed prostate tumor growth in nude mice without any significant decrease in body weight. The systemic bioavailability of UA in serum samples obtained from nude mice. UA was detected in all serum samples 24 h after last injection. Systemic bioavailability of UA was in nanogram range and metabolites of UA were not detected in the samples. These results indicate that UA is well absorbed in the mouse peritoneum and supports the role of UA as a potent compound for chemoprevention and therapy of prostate cancer. [3]
In Vitro: Ursolic acid is important in the induction of apoptosis via AKT/NF-κB signaling suppression in T24 human bladder cancer cells and this occurs in a dose-dependent manner. Thus, Akt and NF-κB are potential targets for bladder cancer therapy and ursolic acid may serve as a naturally-occurring candidate drug for the prevention and treatment of bladder cancer.[1]Ursolic acid induce apoptosis via inhibition of NF-κB induced BCl-2 mediated anti-apoptotic pathway leading to activation of p53 induced and caspase-3 mediated pro-apoptotic pathways.[2]

DC31074 Isopropyl myristate Isopropyl myristate is the ester of isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid.
DC75868 AZ14133346 AZ14133346 (compound 36) is a potent and selective inhibitor of EGFR Exon20 insertions, with the IC50 of 85 nM. AZ14133346 plays an important role in cancer research.
DC75865 TI17 ​​TI17​​ represents a novel class of targeted anticancer agents that specifically disrupt DNA damage repair mechanisms in malignant cells.
DC75816 Nisoxetine Nisoxetine acts as a highly selective and potent noradrenaline transporter (NET) antagonist, exhibiting a binding affinity (Kd) of 0.76 nM. In addition to its antidepressant properties, nisoxetine functions as a local anesthetic by inhibiting voltage-gated sodium channels. This dual pharmacological activity makes it a compound of interest for both neurological and pain management research.
DC75641 GENZ-644282 TFA salt Genz-644282, also known as SAR402674, is a non-camptothecin inhibitor of topoisomerase I with potential antineoplastic activity. Topoisomerase I inhibitor Genz-644282 binds to and inhibits the enzyme topoisomerase I, which may result in the inhibition of repair of single-strand DNA breaks, DNA replication, and tumor cell growth in susceptible tumor cell populations.
DC75325 PSMA-617 TFA PSMA-617, also know as vipivotide tetraxetan, is a ligand used to make 177Lu-PSMA-617, which is a radioactive molecule to fight cancer. PSMA617 possesses a small peptide, which was designed to target prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). PSMA617 demonstrates high radiolytic stability for at least 72 h. PSMA617 has high inhibition potency (equilibrium dissociation constant Ki=2.34±2.94 nM on LNCaP; Ki=0.37±0.21 nM enzymatically determined). 177 Lu-PSMA-617 offers a potential additional life-prolonging treatment option for men with mCRPC.
DC75202 Fosaprepitant free acid Fosaprepitant, also known as MK0517, is an antiemetic drug, administered intravenously. It is a prodrug of aprepitant. Fosaprepitant was developed by Merck & Co. and was approved. It is a prodrug of Aprepitant. It aids in the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy treatment. Fosaprepitant is a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4, and aprepitant, the active moiety, is a substrate, inhibitor, and inducer of CYP3A4
DC74748 O4I4 O4I4 (compound 23) is a OCT4-inducing compound with metabolical stability.
DC74684 ZH8667 ZH8667 is a trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1)–Gs agonist.
DC74646 EB-PSMA-617 EB-PSMA-617 is an Evans blue-modified prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) 617 ligand for making 177Lu-EB-PSMA, which is potential useful for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
