GSK717 is a potent, selective NOD2 (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2) inhibitor that inhibits muramyl dipeptide (MDP)-induced NOD2-mediated signaling with an IC50 of 400 nM for MDP-stimulated IL-8 secretion in HEK293/hNOD2 cells[1]. It blocks the synergy between NOD2 and TLR2 without affecting NOD1, TNFR1, and TLR2-mediated responses. At 5 μM, GSK717 inhibits the release of IL-8, IL-6, TNFα, and IL-1β in primary human monocytes stimulated with MDP[1]. [1]. Rickard DJ, et al.

Hydroxocobalamin acetate is used as a dietary supplement in the treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency including pernicious anemia. Hydroxocobalamin, an injectable naturally occurring form of vitamin B12 with a favorable adverse effect profile, is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of cyanide toxicity.

Simeprevir (TMC435) is a potent HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitor, and inhibits HCV replication with EC50 of 8 nM.

YM976 is an orally active PDE4 inhibitor (IC50:2.2 nM)

BING, a antimicrobial peptide discovered in Japanese medaka fish (O. laptipes), originates from vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 13D-like (Vps13D). It exhibits efficacy against a range of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, notably including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA; MICs = 4-64 µg/ml). Furthermore, BING enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics such as ampicillin, amoxicillin, and novobiocin against P. aeruginosa, and it prevents resistance development to kanamycin and ampicillin in E. coli. Notably, its administration in vivo significantly improves survival rates in O. laptipes challenged with E. tarda.

Apostatin-1 (Apt-1) is a novel TRADD inhibitor that binds to a pocket on the N-terminal TRAF2 binding domain of TRADD.

Corticosterone (Kendall's compound B) is an adrenocortical steroid with salocorticoid and glucocorticoid activity that is orally active. Corticosterone is involved in the regulation of energy, immune responses, and stress responses in the body.

Dexamethasone is a glucocorticoid receptor agonist and IL receptor modulator with anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and apoptosis-inducing activities. It inhibits the production of inflammatory miRNA-155 exosomes in macrophages, significantly reduces inflammatory cytokine expression in neutrophils and monocytes, suppresses LPS-induced macrophage inflammation, and induces autophagy. It is commonly used to induce animal models of depression, muscle atrophy, and hypertension, and holds potential in COVID-19 research.

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS), derived from Escherichia coli O55:B5, are essential components of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Composed of lipid A, a core oligosaccharide, and an O-specific polysaccharide, LPS exhibits strong immunogenicity. It activates immune cells via the TLR4 receptor, induces chemotactic cell migration and cytokine secretion, and helps maintain the integrity of the bacterial outer membrane, protecting against bile salts and lipid-based antibiotics. LPS is commonly used to establish inflammatory models, including arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and gastrointestinal disease models.

Atinvicitinib, a selective Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, demonstrates high specificity for Janus kinase 1 (JAK1), consequently inhibiting downstream cytokine signaling pathways that rely on JAK1 enzymatic activity. Atinvicitinib modulates a wide range of cytokines that are implicated in itch responses, allergic reactions, and inflammatory conditions, making it a significant research tool for studying cytokine-mediated immune processes as well as therapeutic modulation of allergic and inflammatory diseases.

1. Ginkgetin has anti-influenza virus and anti-fungal activities. 2. Ginkgetin has anti-inflammatory activity, can down-regulates COX-2 induction in vivo against skin inflammatory responses. 3. Ginkgetin is a good STAT3 inhibitor and may be a useful lead

Oxazolone is a haptenating agent that can induce models of acute or chronic colitis and atopic dermatitis. It activates Th1/Th2 responses, leading to weight loss and diarrhea, and the resulting inflammation can be alleviated by anti-IL-4 antibodies, anti-TNF-α antibodies, or IL-13R2α-Fc fusion proteins. It is also suitable for studying gene expression related to inflammatory bowel disease in zebrafish.

BAY-218 is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) antagonist with IC50 of 39.9 nM in the human glioblastoma U87 cell line. BAY-218 inhibition of AhR stimulates pro-inflammatory monocyte and T cell responses in vitro and drives anti-tumor immune responses, leading to reduced tumor growth in vivo.

Dazostinag disodium (TAK-676) is a synthetic novel interferon gene (STING) agonist that triggers STING signaling pathway activation and type I interferon activation. Dazostinag disodium (TAK-676) is also a highly effective immune system modulator with complete resolution and lasting memory of T cell immunity and the ability to promote lasting interferon-dependent anti-tumor immune responses.

Ionomycin is a calcium ion carrier and an antibiotic that binds to calcium ions (Ca2+). The main function of Ionomycin is to induce cellular responses by increasing the intracellular calcium ion concentration. In experiments, Ionomycin is typically used to activate calcium-dependent processes, such as apoptosis and enzyme activity.

Cot inhibitor-1 is a selective inhibitor of Cot protein kinase (also known as Tpl2 or MAP3K8) (IC50 at 28 nM). Cot inhibitor-1 inhibited TNF-alpha production in human whole blood with IC50 of 5.7 nM. Cot is involved in a variety of cellular signaling pathways, particularly those involved in inflammation and immune responses. Cot inactivate-1 inhibits Cot activity and may have potential therapeutic effects on rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and some types of cancer.
