Eicosapentaenoic Acid activates the RAS/ERK/C/EBPβ pathway in U937 leukemia cells through demethylation of the CpG island of H-RAS intron 1. Eicosapentaenoic Acid promotes the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells and vasodilation.

2',3'-cGAMP is an endogenous cyclic dinucleotide (CDN) produced by cGAS (cGAMP synthase) in response to double-stranded DNA in the cytoplasm. It acts as a STING activator and ligand, inducing interferons (IFNs) via the TBK1/IRF3 pathway and pro-inflammatory factors via the NF-κB pathway.

Helenalin is a selective inhibitor of transcription factor NF-κB by direct targeting of p65. It is an anti-inflammatory sesquiterpene lactone compound with alkylating activity. Through its ability to target the cysteine sulfhydryl groups in the p65 subunit of NF-κB, helenalin effectively inhibits its DNA binding.

Folitixorin (ANX-510) is an active folate derivative and coenzyme associated with thymidine synthesis, with potential antitumour activity.

Sibiromycin, a glycosylated pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs) compound, is a naturally occurring and potent antitumor antibiotic. It exerts its activity by covalently binding to DNA in the minor groove at the NH2 of guanine.

Mithramycin A (Plicamycin), a DNA-binding antitumor antibiotic, is a selective specificity protein 1 (Sp1) inhibitor, which inhibits the growth of various cancers by decreasing Sp1 protein. Specificity protein 1 (Sp1) is a zinc-finger transcription factor that regulates multiple cellular functions and promotes tumor progression.

Ochromycinone (STA 21) is a selective STAT3 inhibitor.

1. Ginsenoside Rg5 could be a beneficial agent for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. 2. Ginsenoside Rg5 suppresses LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and proinflammatory TNF-α secretion. 3. Ginsenoside Rg5 can ameliorate lung inflammation possib

Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) sodium, an orally active omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (ω-3 LC-PUFA), demonstrates a unique ability to demethylate DNA, thereby facilitating the re-expression of the tumor suppressor gene CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein δ (C/EBPδ). This compound also activates the RAS/ERK/C/EBPβ pathway by demethylating H-Ras intron 1 CpG island in U937 leukemia cells and promotes the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells, leading to vasodilation.
