Kanamycin (Kanamycin A) is an orally active antibacterial (gram-negative/positive bacteria) agent, inhibits translocation and causes misencoding by binding to the 70 S ribosomal subunit. Kanamycin shows good inhibitory activity to both M. tuberculosis (sensitive and drug-resistant ) and K. pneumonia, which can be used in studies of tuberculosis and pneumonia.

Fluorescein-5-maleimide (N-(5-Fluoresceinyl)maleimide) is a fluorescent dye. Fluorescein-5-maleimide can be used to detect the redox state of thiols in eukaryotic cells. Fluorescein-5-maleimide can label peptides and is used to detect negatively charged nanoparticles. Fluorescein-5-maleimide can also label actin to explore its interaction with cardiac myosin-binding protein C (cMyBP-C), which helps in developing small molecule modulators for […]

Laurdan is a membrane-permeable fluorescent probe that displays spectral sensitivity to the phospholipid phase of the cell membrane to which it is bound. Quantitation of generalized polarization (GP) of Laurdan can be used to identify phospholipid phase.

BTS (N-Benzyl-p-toluenesulfonamide) is a potent and selective inhibitor of skeletal muscle myosin II subfragment 1 (S1) ATPase activity, with an IC50s of ~5 μM for actin- and Ca2+-stimulated myosin S1 ATPase. BTS specifically inhibits the contraction of fast skeletal muscle fibers.

C6 Ceramide (C6-Cer, N-Hexanoylsphingosine) is a short-chain, cell-permeable ceramide with anticancer properties, including cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and tumor growth inhibition. It enhances chemotherapy efficacy in drug-resistant cancers by promoting miR-29b expression, which suppresses endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis through the Akt signaling pathway. In combination with Trichostatin A, C6 Ceramide disrupts the HDAC6/PP1/tubulin […]

5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein (5(6)-FAM) is an amine-reactive pH-sensitive green fluorescent probe. 5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein (5(6)-FAM) can be used to label proteins, peptides and nucleotides. 5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein can be used for the detection of tumour areas in vivo.

Purpurin-18 is a chlorophyll-derived dihydroporphyrin, serves as a key precursor for photosensitizers like purpurinimides, which absorb light in the 700–850 nm range. It demonstrate potent photodynamic anti-tumor activity and generates ROS, disrupting mitochondrial membrane potential and inducing apoptosis against triple-negative breast cancer both in vitro and in vivo.

Dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA, all-cis-8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic acid) is a 20-carbon ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) derived in vivo from linolenic acid. It exhibits antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antiproliferative effects, making it a promising candidate for the prevention and treatment of hyperplasia and proliferative diseases, especially for cancers.

Ensitrelvir (S-217622) is an oral, non-covalent, non-peptidic inhibitor of the SARS-CoV-2 3CL protease, with an IC50 of 13 nM. It also exhibits antiviral activity in vitro and is a potential oral agent for treating COVID-19.

BTZ043 is an inhibitor of decaprenyl-phosphoribose-epimerase (DprE1), with MICs of of 2.3 nM and 9.2 nM for M. tuberculosis H37Rv and Mycobacterium smegmatis, respectively.
