AKR1C3-IN-10 (compound 5r), a selective inhibitor of AKR1C3 with an IC50 of 51 nM, demonstrates efficacy in a prostate cancer xenograft model [1].

AKR1C3-IN-12 (compound 2j), an inhibitor of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3), exhibits potent activity with an IC50 of 27 nM. It has been shown to enhance the effectiveness of Gemcitabine and Cisplatin in treating bladder cancer [1].

AKR1C3-IN-14 (compound 4) is an inhibitor of AKR1C3 enzyme, exhibiting an IC50 value of 0.122 μM. It reduces excess androgen production by inhibiting the activity of the AKR1C3 enzyme, thereby regulating hormone-mediated signaling. Additionally, AKR1C3-IN-14 plays a role in the biosynthesis of prostaglandin PGF2α, influencing this pathway to regulate cell proliferation. This compound is utilized in the research of prostate cancer.

Liquiritin (Liquiritigenin-4'-O-glucoside) (LIQ) is a main component among the licorice flavonoids, and possesses anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer abilities.

WEHL-04 is an intermediate used to prepare (isoquinolinylsulfonyl)benzoic acids as inhibitors of type 5 71-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase AKR1C3. It is also used in the synthesis of 2-aminooctahydrocyclopentalene-3a-carboxamides as potent CCR2 antagonists

ASP-9521 is a selective, potent and orally active indole-based AKR1C3 inhibitor with an IC50 of 11 nM for human AKR1C3.

AKR1C1-IN-1 is a human 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (AKR1C1) inhibitor (Ki: 4 nM for AKR1C1).

LX1, an anti-prostate cancer compound, specifically targets the androgen receptor (AR), AR variants, and the steroidogenic enzyme AKR1C3. It inhibits AKR1C3's enzymatic function, decreases the conversion of androstenedione to testosterone, and reduces the expression of both AR and AR-V7, subsequently downregulating their target genes. Additionally, LX1 is effective in overcoming tumor cell resistance to Enzalutamide, and when combined with Enzalutamide, it further suppresses tumor growth.

Pyrone-211 acts as a potent GPR84 agonist and an AKR1C3 inhibitor. It is involved in the extended polyamine pathway.
