Safingol hydrochloride inhibits PKC and PI3k.

Spironolactone (SC9420) is an Aldosterone Antagonist. The mechanism of action of spironolactone is as an Aldosterone Antagonist.

Tamoxifen Citrate is an orally active selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that blocks estrogen activity in breast cells while activating estrogen signaling in cells such as those of the bone, liver, and uterus. As an Hsp90 activator, it enhances the ATPase activity of the Hsp90 chaperone complex, induces autophagy and apoptosis, and can be used to generate gene knockout models in CreER(T2) transgenic mice as well as liver injury models.

Isradipine (PN 200-110) is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker with antihypertensive and vasodilator activities. Isradipine blocks calcium entry through calcium ion channels in coronary and peripheral vascular smooth muscle, dilating coronary arteries and peripheral arterioles. This action increases oxygen delivery by enhancing blood flow and decreases oxygen requirements by reducing total peripheral resistance.

ML-9 suppresses MLCK, PKA, and PKC activity with Ki values of 4, 32, and 54 μM, respectively. ML-9 is a selective and effective inhibitor of Akt kinase, inhibits myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK), and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) activity.
