Mirin is a Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex inhibitor that inhibits MRN-dependent ATM activation without affecting ATM protein kinase activity. It also inhibits Mre11-associated exonuclease activity, thereby disrupting DNA double-strand break repair.Mirin induces cell cycle arrest in G1 phase.

DMNB (6-Nitroveratraldehyde) is DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) inhibitor with IC50 of 15 μM, an enzyme involved in the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway of double-stranded DNA break (DSB) repair in human cells.

VX-984 (M9831) is an oral, selective DNA-PK inhibitor that can cross the blood-brain barrier. VX-984 inhibited the conjugation of non-homologous terminal NHEJ and acted on DSBs to break DNA double strand. VX-984 is commonly seen in glioblastoma (GBM) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSC-LC) studies.

IBR2 (Isoquinoline) is a potent and specific RAD51 inhibitor known for its ability to suppress RAD51-mediated DNA double-strand break repair. By interfering with RAD51 multimerization, accelerating proteasome-mediated RAD51 protein degradation, inhibiting cancer cell growth, and inducing apoptosis, IBR2 has proved to be an effective compound in these aspects.

DBC is a halogenated hydrocarbon, widely used in biochemical experiments and drug synthesis research.

TIQ-A is a PARP1 inhibitor which involved in DNA single-strand break repair via the base excision repair pathway. PARP1 is triggered by DNA damage and its excessive activation has been proposed as a causative factor in many pathological conditions includi

AV-153 free base is a 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) derivative with antimutagenic and anti-cancer activity. It interacts with cytosine and thymine, influences poly(ADP)ribosylation, intercalates to DNA at single-strand breaks, reduces DNA damage, and stimulates DNA repair in human cells in vitro [1] [2] [3].

SU-11752 is a potent and selective DNA-PK inhibitor. Inhibition kinetics and a direct assay for ATP binding showed that SU11752 inhibited DNA-PK by competing with ATP. SU11752 inhibited DNA double-strand break repair in cells and gave rise to a five-fold sensitization to ionizing radiation. At concentrations of SU11752 that inhibited DNA repair, cell cycle progression was still normal and ATM kinase activity was not inhibited.

CBP-93872 is a G2 checkpoint inhibitor. CBP-93872 specifically abrogates the DNA double-stranded break (DSB)-induced G2 checkpoint through inhibiting maintenance. CBP-93872 is an inhibitor of maintenance of the DSB-specific G2 checkpoint and thus might be a strong candidate as the basis for a drug that specifically sensitizes p53-mutated cancer cells to DSB-inducing DNA damage therapy.

PARP-1-IN-13 (Compound 19c) is a potent PARP-1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 26 nM, hindering DNA single-strand break repair and exacerbating double-strand breaks, leading to apoptosis in cancer cells via the mitochondrial pathway [1].

T2AA, a proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) inhibitor, disrupts protein-protein interactions between PCNA and both a PIP-box-containing peptide (IC50= 1 μM) and full-length p21, reducing cellular colocalization of PCNA with DNA polymerase δ. This compound effectively inhibits DNA replication and cell proliferation in U2OS and HeLa cells in a concentration-dependent manner, additionally inducing S phase cell cycle arrest at a 20 μM concentration. Furthermore, T2AA enhances DNA double strand break formation alongside cisplatin in a neutral comet assay and augments cisplatin-induced reductions in clonogenic survival in HeLa and U2OS cells.

Bractoppin is a drug-like inhibitor of phosphopeptide recognition by the human BRCA1 tandem (t)BRCT domain (IC50 = 0.074 μM), which selectively inhibits substrate binding with nanomolar potency in vitro. Structure-activity exploration suggests that Bractoppin engages BRCA1 tBRCT residues recognizing pSer in the consensus motif, pSer-Pro-Thr-Phe, plus an abutting hydrophobic pocket that is distinct in structurally related BRCT domains, conferring selectivity.

IC 86621 is a selective and reversible ATP-competitive inhibitor of DNA-PK with an IC50 of 120 nM. IC 86621 increases DNA double-strand break(DSB)-induced antitumor activity with an EC50 of 68 µM for DNA-PK mediated cellular DSB repair.

(–)-Voacangarine, an indole alkaloid isolated from V. africana, exhibits cytotoxicity towards various cell lines including HepG2, A375, MDA-MB-231, SH-SY5Y, and CT26 with IC50 values of 20 µg/ml. Additionally, it demonstrates cytostatic effects on wild-type S. cerevisiae and is cytotoxic to Δrad3-e5 and Δrad6-1 mutant strains of S. cerevisiae, which have defects in DNA strand break repair and the mutagenic repair pathway, respectively.
