chemotherapy

Cisplatin (CDDP) is a chemotherapeutic agent with antitumor activity and is a classic DNA crosslinker. It inhibits DNA synthesis and induces DNA damage in cancer cells by forming DNA adducts, ultimately leading to cell death. In addition, Cisplatin can activate ferroptosis and induce autophagy. In animal studies, it is commonly used to establish models of chronic kidney injury and acute renal failure.

Etoposide (VP-16-213) is a topoisomerase II inhibitor that inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA (IC50=60.3 μM). Etoposide has antitumor activity and induces apoptosis and autophagy.

Sodium 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate (Uromitexan) is a sulfhydryl compound used to prevent urothelial toxicity by inactivating metabolites from antineoplastic agents, such as ifosfamide or cyclophosphamide.

Apoptosis Inhibitor was a novel inhibitor of programmed cell death associate with caspase-3 inhibition.

Azasetron hydrochloride (Y-25130 HCl) is a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist which is used as an anti-emetic.

AG-1478 (NSC-693255) (Tyrphostin AG-1478) is a selective EGFR inhibitor.

DC_AC50 is a dual inhibitor of Atox1 and CCS (copper chaperones), aimed at reducing or preventing acquired chemotherapy resistance by inhibiting intracellular copper chaperones. It binds to Atox1 and CCS, thereby reducing cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth.

Cephalomannine (Baccatin III) is a taxol derivative obtained from Taxus yunnanensis with antitumor activity.

Tesmilifene fumarate (DPPE fumarate) (DPPE fumarate) is an H1C receptor antagonist.

Rad51-in-1 is a derivative of B02 and an effective inhibitor of Rad51.

Ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate (GR 38032) is a competitive serotonin type 3 receptor antagonist. It is effective in the treatment of nausea and vomiting caused by cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs, including cisplatin, and has reported anxiolytic and neuroleptic properties.

Fosaprepitant dimeglumine (MK-0517) is the dimeglumine salt form of fosaprepitant, a water-soluble, N-phosphorylated prodrug of aprepitant with antiemetic activity. Upon intravenous administration and rapid conversion to aprepitant, this agent selectively binds to human substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), inhibiting receptor binding of endogenous substance P and preventing substance P-induced emesis.

Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) is a fluorescent anthracycline antitumor antibiotic that inhibits Topoisomerase I/II, induces apoptosis and autophagy, downregulates the AMPK signaling pathway, and is commonly used in cancer chemotherapy as well as in models of nephritis and heart failure.

1-Deazaadenosine, a potent Adenosine deaminase inhibitor (Ki: 0.66 μM), exhibits anti-cancer activities in vitro and holds potential as a chemotherapy agent for lymphoproliferative disorders.

ACY-1083 is a small molecule inhibitor, a highly selective HDAC6 inhibitor (IC50=3 nM), with 260-fold higher selectivity over other classes of HDAC isoforms. It is brain-penetrant and used for research on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.

Semustine, a DNA alkylating agent, is a cancer chemotherapy compound that is nephrotoxic in patients with malignant melanoma receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for the adjuvant treatment of leukemia.

Itasetron (U 98079A) is a 5-hydroxytryptamine 3-receptor antagonist used to prevent age-related memory deficits in rats.Itasetron's antiemetic activity in animal models of cancer chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be useful in the study of amnesia.

Endothall is a protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) inhibitor, capable of inhibiting PP2A (IC50: 90 nM) and PP1 (IC50: 5 uM). It acts as a herbicide and can also be useful in cancer chemotherapy.

Nonabine is a compound with strong antiemetic properties that can be used to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy.

Phenothiazine (ENT 38) is a class of agents exhibiting antiemetic, antipsychotic, antihistaminic, and anticholinergic activities. Phenothiazines antagonize the dopamine D2-receptor in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) of the brain, potentially preventing chemotherapy-induced emesis.

Granisetron hydrochloride (Granisetron HCl) is a serotonin receptor (5HT-3 selective) antagonist that has been used as an antiemetic for cancer chemotherapy patients.

Palonosetron hydrochloride (RS 25259) is a 5-HT3 antagonist used in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.

Anethole trithione (Anetholtrithion) is a bile secretion-stimulating drug that restores salivation and relieves the discomfort of dry mouth in chemotherapy-induced xerostomia.

5-Fluorouridine is a metabolite of 5-fluorouracil that inhibits rRNA synthesis in human colon cancer cells and exhibits antitumor and antiviral activity. 5-Fluorouridine exerts a cytotoxic effect on the growth of L1210 cells, with an IC₅₀ value of 2 nM. 5-Fluorouridine binds to poly-A RNA and exhibits antiproliferative activity. 5-Fluorouridine can be used in studies of nucleic acid metabolism, cancer chemotherapy, and viral replication mechanisms.
