GS143 is a selective IκBα ubiquitination inhibitor with an IC50 of 5.2 μM for SCFβTrCP1-mediated IκBα ubiquitylation. It suppresses NF-κB activation and transcription of target genes without inhibiting proteasome activity. GS143 has anti-asthm[atic] properties.

WHI-P97 is a rationally designed potent inhibitor of JAK-3. IC50 value: Target: JAK3 Treatment of mast cells with WHI-P97 inhibited the translocation of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) from the nucleoplasm to the nuclear membrane and consequently 5-LO-dependent leukotriene (LT) synthesis after IgE receptor/FcepsilonRI crosslinking by >90% at low micromolar concentrations. WHI-P97 did not directly inhibit the enzymatic activity of 5-LO, but prevented its translocation to the nuclear membrane without affecting the requisite calcium signal.

1. Obtusifolin has antioxidant properties and improves chemically induced diabetes and its complications by modulation of oxidative stress. 2. Obtusifolin suppresses phthalate esters-mediated bone resorption, thus may be a novel anti-breast-cancer bone me

Sphondin has anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-proliferative activities, it possessed an inhibitory effect on IL-1beta-induced increase in the level of COX-2 protein and PGE(2) release in A549 cells.

Enoximone is a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase III (PDE3), with treatment of congestive heart failure.

Sulfuretin is a potent anti-oxidant, has protective effect against t-BHP-induced oxidative damage in human liver-derived HepG2 cells is attributable to its ability to scavenge ROS and up-regulate the activity of HO-1 through the Nrf2/ARE and JNK/ERK signa

Theophylline monohydrate (Quibron) appears to inhibit phosphodiesterase and prostaglandin production, regulate calcium flux and intracellular calcium distribution, and antagonize adenosine. Theophylline monohydrate is a natural alkaloid derivative of xanthine isolated from the plants Camellia sinensis and Coffea arabica. Physiologically, this agent relaxes the bronchial smooth muscle, produces vasodilation (except in cerebral vessels), stimulates the CNS, stimulates the cardiac muscle, induces diuresis, and increases gastric acid secretion; it may also suppress inflammation and improve contractility of the diaphragm.

Levofloxacin hydrate (Cravit hydrate) is a broad-spectrum, third-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic and optically active L-isomer of ofloxacin with antibacterial activity. Levofloxacin diffuses through the bacterial cell wall and acts by inhibiting DNA gyrase (bacterial topoisomerase II), an enzyme required for DNA replication, RNA transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA. Inhibition of DNA gyrase activity leads to blockage of bacterial cell growth.

Levofloxacin ((-)-Ofloxacin) is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits the superhelical activity of bacterial DNA rotamase and prevents DNA replication. Levofloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections.

ZL0420 is a potent and selective bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) inhibitor with nanomolar binding affinities to the bromodomains (BDs) of BRD4, exhibiting IC50 values of 27 nM against BRD4 BD1 and 32 nM against BRD4 BD2.

YM976 is an orally active PDE4 inhibitor (IC50:2.2 nM)

Ayanin has vasorelaxant activity, it also may have the potential for use in treating allergic asthma.The IC(50) value of Ayanin (quercetin-3,7,4'-O-trimethylether) is 2.2microM for inhibiting interleukin (IL)-4 production from purified basophils.

Nodakenin ((+)-Marmesinin) is a compound with anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory activities.

Theophylline (1,3-Dimethylxanthine) is a methyl xanthine derivative from tea with diuretic, smooth muscle relaxant, bronchial dilation, cardiac, and central nervous system stimulant activities. It inhibits the 3', 5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase that degrades cyclic AMP, thus potentiating the actions of agents that act through adenylyl cyclases and cyclic AMP.

Methacholine Chloride (Acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride) is a quaternary ammonium parasympathomimetic agent with the muscarinic actions of ACETYLCHOLINE. It is hydrolyzed by ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE at a considerably slower rate than ACETYLCHOLINE and is more resistant to hydrolysis by nonspecific CHOLINESTERASES so that its actions are more prolonged. It is used as a parasympathomimetic bronchoconstrictor agent and as a diagnostic aid for bronchial asthma.

Levofloxacin is a broad-spectrum, third-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic and optically active L-isomer of ofloxacin with antibacterial activity. Levofloxacin diffuses through the bacterial cell wall and acts by inhibiting DNA gyrase (bacterial topoisomerase II), an enzyme required for DNA replication, RNA transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA. Inhibition of DNA gyrase activity leads to blockage of bacterial cell growth.

ZL0590 is an effective and selective inhibitor of BD1-BRD4 (IC50 = 90 nM) with anti-inflammatory activities.

7,4'-Dihydroxyflavone (4',7-Dihydroxyflavone) can induce transcription of nodulation (nod) genes in Rhizobium meliloti. It has inhibitory activities against COX-2.

3-CPs (3-Carbethoxypsoralen) is a bleomycin-induced serotypic podoplanar polysaccharide in mouse lung fibrosis that belongs to the psoralen family and interferes with antibody-mediated bacterial killing.3-CPs delays bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in mice and can be used in studies of airway inflammation and asthma.

RS-601 is a potent dual leukotriene D4/thromboxane A2 inhibitor that inhibits antigen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and shows asthmatic effects in a guinea pig model of asthma.

Oglemilast (GRC 3886) suppresses pulmonary cell infiltration, including eosinophilia and neutrophilia in vitro and in vivo. Oglemilast is an effective and orally active phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor (IC50: 0.5 nM for PDE4D3). Oglemilast has the potential for inflammatory airway diseases.

SKF96067 is a reversible gastric H+/K+-ATPase inhibitor that can induce relaxation of human airway smooth muscle in vitro.
