MDK03855, also known as A2AR antagonist 19, is an adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) antagonist. MDK03855 has CAS#1454903-85-5. The last five digit of CAS# was used for name.

MTP 131 is a mitochondria-targeted peptide antioxidant.1,2It localizes to the mitochondria and reducestert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced lipid peroxidation and apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells when used at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 1 nM.1MTP 131 (2 mg kg) reduces infarct volume, hemispheric swelling, and glutathione (GSH) depletion in a mouse model of acute cerebral ischemia induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).2It increases survival, improves motor function, and decreases degeneration of the lumbar spinal cord in a superoxide dismutase 1 mutant (SOD1G93A) transgenic mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) when administered at a dose of 5 mg kg. MTP 131 reduces albuminuria, urinary hydrogen peroxide levels, and mesangial matrix accumulation, as well as preserves superoxide production, in adb dbmouse model of diabetic nephropathy.3 1.Zhao, K., Luo, G., Giannelli, S., et al.Mitochondria-targeted peptide prevents mitochondrial depolarization and apoptosis induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide in neuronal cell linesBiochem.

QD-394 is an inducer of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.1It induces lipid peroxidation, increases in intracellular accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and decreases in the reduced glutathione (GSH) to oxidized GSH (GSSG) ratio in MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells when used at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 10 μM. QD-394 is cytotoxic to MIA PaCa-2, PANC-1, and BxPC-3 cancer cells (IC50s = 0.64, 0.34, and 0.9 μM, respectively). QD-394 acts synergistically with napabucasin to reduce colony formation in MIA PaCa-2 cells. 1.Hu, S., Sechi, M., Singh, P.K., et al.A novel redox modulator induces a GPX4-mediated cell death that is dependent on iron and reactive oxygen speciesJ.

Difluorinated H2S probe 1 is a fluorescent probe for hydrogen sulfide (H2S).1It selectively fluoresces in the presence of H2S over Zn2+, Fe3+, S2O32-, ClO-, SO32-, H2O2, NO2-, cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and glutathione (GSH) when used at a concentration of 1 μM. Difluorinated H2S probe 1 displays excitation/emission maxima of 365/450 nm, respectively. 1.Zhang, J., Gao, Y., Kang, X., et al.o,o-Difluorination of aromatic azide yields a fast-response fluorescent probe for H2S detection and for improved bioorthogonal reactionsOrg.
