  • HY-W018791
    Bifendate
    		Activator 99.92%
    Bifendate (DDB), extracted from Schisandrae chinensis, is an orally active anti-HBV agent against chronic hepatitis B. Bifendate inhibits ATG5-dependent autophagy and attenuates oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation with anti-oxidant properties in vitro. Bifendate can decrease alanine transaminase (ALT) level in mice. Bifendate attenuates hepatic steatosis in cholesterol/bile salt- and high-fat diet-induced hypercholesterolemia in mice. Bifendate potently increases the activity of cytochrome proteins (CYPs) and reverse P-gp-mediated multi-drug resistance (MDR).
  • HY-W050044
    L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid
    		Activator 99.85%
    L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid is a proline analog. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid upregulates the lipid autophagy marker LC3-II via activation of the PERK pathway. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid increases pro-apoptotic BAX protein. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid induces ATF6 cleavage and upregulates phosphorylated eIF2α levels. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid induces ER stress, inducing protein misfolding and aggregation. L-Azetidine-2-carboxylic acid shows teratogenic, pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic effects.
  • HY-175204
    SHP2 protein degrader-3
    		Activator
    SHP2 protein degrader-3 is a SHP2 AUTAC degrader. SHP2 protein degrader-3 shows dose-dependent SHP2 degradation ability (DC50 = 3.22 μM) and anti-tumor activity (IC50 = 5.59 μM) in HeLa cells. SHP2 protein degrader-3 induces degradation through the LC3-mediated autophagy pathway, which can be inhibited by lysosome inhibitors. SHP2 protein degrader-3 induces apoptosis in various cancer cells (HeLa cells, HepG2 cells, LoVo cells, Huh-7 cells) (SHP2 Ligand : (HY-100388); LC3 Ligand: (HY-10542); Linker : (HY-128834)).
  • HY-N0538
    Xylitol
    		Activator ≥98.0%
    Xylitol can be classified as a polyol and sugar alcohol, exhibiting inhibitory activity on cancer cell proliferation. It induces autophagy (Autophagy) and cell death in A549 cells by activating the autophagy signaling pathway, as evidenced by the increased expression of LC3-II and Atg5-Atg12 upon Xylitol treatment. Additionally, Xylitol inhibits acetaldehyde production by Candida species, thereby reducing their carcinogenic potential. In vivo, Xylitol induces alterations in the gut microbiota of mice, which may enhance cholesterol accumulation and upregulate hepatic ChREBP, while also slowing tumor growth in the B16F10 melanoma C57BL/6 mouse model.
  • HY-B0633C
    Hyaluronic acid (Mw:1000-2000Da)
    		Activator
    Hyaluronic acid (Mw:1000-2000Da) is a long-chain, unbranched polysaccharide with a molecular weight of 1000-2000 Dalton. Hyaluronic acid (Mw:1000-2000Da) regulates tissue homeostasis and stress resistance, exhibits a pro-inflammatory effect (while hyaluronic acid with high molecular weight exhibits an anti-inflammatory effect), and promotes angiogenesis and tissue remodeling. Hyaluronic acid (Mw:1000-2000Da) exhibits good biocompatible and biodegradable characteristics, that can be used in drug delivery systems and tissue engineering.
  • HY-W142432
    Perfluoroundecanoic acid
    		Activator 99.85%
    Perfluoroundecanoic acid is a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS). Perfluoroundecanoic acid is an orally active oxidative stress inducer. Perfluoroundecanoic acid promotes macrophage M2 polarization, activates Wnt/β-catenin signaling and enhances β-catenin nuclear accumulation. Perfluoroundecanoic acid -induced M2 phenotype macrophage accelerates tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Perfluoroundecanoic acid induces DNA damage, reproductive and pathophysiological dysfunctions via oxidative stress in male Swiss mice. Perfluoroundecanoic acid inhibits Leydig cell development in pubertal male rats via inducing oxidative stress and autophagy. Perfluoroundecanoic acid accelerates insulitis development in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes. Perfluoroundecanoic acid can be used for the study of ovarian cancer, type 1 diabetes and inflammation.
  • HY-175209
    Nrf2-IN-4
    		Activator
    Nrf2-IN-4 is a Nrf2 inhibitor. Nrf2-IN-4 induces ferroptosis via NRF2 inhibition. Nrf2-IN-4 disrupts cellular iron homeostasis, facilitates ferritin degradation, and ultimately triggers ferroptosis. Nrf2-IN-4 induces lysosome activation by promoting iron-dependent ROS production and lysosomal acidification. Nrf2-IN-4 demonstrates significant antitumor efficacy. Nrf2-IN-4 can be used for the study of breast cancer.
