ZCL278 is a selective Cdc42 GTPase inhibitor.

Ciclopirox (HOE296b) exerts its action by binding to and chelating trivalent cations, such as Fe3+ and Al3+, thereby inhibiting the availability of essential co-factors for enzymes. Ciclopirox is a synthetic, broad-spectrum antifungal agent with additional antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. This may lead to a loss of activity of enzymes that are essential for cellular metabolism, the organization of cell wall structure and other crucial cell functions. In addition, ciclopirox exerts its anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase (COX).

Furthermore, clusters formed by 18:0,18:1 PS and cholesterol not only support the proper distribution of cholesterol in the bilayer membrane but also protect it from oxidative damage effectively.

This compound effectively inhibits cancer cell proliferation and reduces their migration and colonization capabilities. iMPZ-8 induces cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and triggers apoptosis (apoptosis) through the BAX-Caspase-3 intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. It is applicable in cancer research, including studies on breast cancer, neuroblastoma, and colon cancer.

Terbucarb is a phenylcarbamate herbicide that disrupts the organization of microtubule centers in plant cells, leading to the formation of multipolar spindles and branched phragmoplasts, thereby inhibiting plant growth. It has been observed to induce an "anaphase star" image in onion root tips. Terbucarb exhibits cytotoxicity to isolated rat hepatocytes, causing cell death along with a loss of intracellular ATP, protein thiol, and glutathione.

IMM-01 is a novel class of small-molecule agonists of the mammalian Diaphanous (mDia)-related formins, which act downstream of Rho GTPases to assemble actin filaments, and their organization with microfilaments to establish and maintain cell polarity during migration and asymmetric division. GTP-bound Rho activates mDia family members by disrupting the interaction between the DID and DAD autoregulatory domains, which releases the FH2 domain to modulate actin and microtubule dynamics[1].

PT-262 is a potent Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor with an IC50 value of approximately 5 μM, and it induces mitochondrial membrane potential loss, enhances caspase-3 activation, and promotes apoptosis, while concurrently inhibiting ERK and CDC2 phosphorylation through a p53-independent signaling pathway, disrupting cytoskeletal organization and cell migration, and collectively exerting broad anticancer activity that makes PT-262 a valuable tool for mechanistic cancer biology and signal transduction research.

BIR1 is a balloon inducing reagent, which triggers a spontaneous self-organization process, leading to the formation of 3-D balloon like structure during hESC differentiation.

CAY10685 is a cell-permeable analog of the lysine acetyltransferase inhibitor CPTH2 that incorporates an alkyne functional group enabling click chemistry–based labeling strategies, and through inhibition of N-acetyltransferase 10 activity. CAY10685 has been extensively applied to modulate chromatin organization, facilitating detailed investigations into alterations of nuclear architecture associated with oncogenesis and specific laminopathies in advanced epigenetic and cell biology studies.

Microtubule stabilizing agent. Potent inhibitor of cellular proliferation in cancer cell lines (IC50 reported to be 3-30 nM, dependent on cell line used).

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that exhibits a broad spectrum of biological activities including cell proliferation, survival, migration, cytoskeletal organization, and morphogenesis. It exerts its activity by binding to five distinct G protein-coupled receptors, S1P1/EDG-1, S1P2/EDG-5, S1P3/EDG-3, S1P4/EDG-6, and S1P5/EDG-8.

It exhibits no biological activity in vivo and can therefore serve as an effective control compound for experiments involving W146.
