Hydrocortisone (Cortisol) is a glucocorticoid hormone secreted by the adrenocortex. Hydrocortisone agonizes the glucocorticoid receptor, which promotes proteolytic metabolism, gluconeogenesis, capillary wall stabilization, and renal calcium excretion, as well as suppressing immune and inflammatory responses.

Inosine pranobex (Delimmun) has a number of immunomodulatory effects, including inducing T-lymphocyte differentiation, augmenting macrophage and NK cell functions, and stimulating IL-2 production. Through these effects and others, isoprinosine shows antiviral activity and has applications against subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. It also restores depressed immune responses in Y patients after irradiation and reduces the incidence of infection in leukemia patients undergoing chemotherapy. It is most commonly used to treat the rare measles complication subacute sclerosing panencephalitis in conjunction with intrathecal interferon therapy.

3-Indoleacrylic acid is a metabolite of tryptophan produced by Peptostreptococcus species. 3-Indoleacrylic acid has a beneficial effect on intestinal epithelial barrier function and mitigates inflammatory responses by immune cells.

Transglutaminase (TG) is a thiolase that induces intermolecular cross-linking of proteins, by catalysing the formation of isopeptide bonds between the γ-carboxamide group of glutamine residues and the primary ε-amine group of other compounds. The enzyme plays a role in a variety of physiological processes including coagulation, antimicrobial immune responses and photosynthesis.

Methyl 2-Octynoate is an unsaturated ester compound widely used in biochemical experiments and drug synthesis research.

FCE-27164 is a therapeutic agent that inhibits the binding of platelet-derived growth factor beta and interleukin-7 (IL-7) to their respective receptors, potentially modulating inflammatory and immune responses.

MC-Val-Cit-PAB-Amide-TLR7 agonist 4 TFA is the trifluoroacetate form of MC-Val-Cit-PAB-Amide-TLR7 agonist 4. MC-Val-Cit-PAB-Amide-TLR7 agonist 4 is a HER2-TLR7 and HER2- TLR8 immune agonist complexes with potential antitumor activity by activating the TLR7 and TLR8 signaling pathways and enhancing immune responses.

BMS-986449 is a CELMoD-type molecular gel that remodels the function of regulatory T cells (Treg) and enhances their anti-tumor immune responses by directing the E3 ubiquitin ligase, Cereblon, to target the degradation of IKZF2 (Helios) and IKZF4 (Eos). BMS-986449 has potential application in the study of advanced solid tumors.
