signaling cascade

Monensin is an antiprotozoal agent produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis. It has an inhibitory effect on the Wnt β-catenin signaling cascade. Monensin is a prospective anticancer drug for the therapy of neoplasia with deregulated Wnt signaling.

Jasmonic acid (JA) is a phytohormone and plant growth regulator involved in plant defense and growth and development.Jasmonic acid plays an important role in signaling, inducing the MAP kinase cascade pathway and calcium channels.

Fascaplysin is a cyclin D kinase 4 cyclin D1 inhibitor (IC50 = 0.35 μM). Fascaplysin induces caspase mediated crosstalk between autophagy and apoptosis through the inhibition of PI3K AKT mTOR signaling cascade in human leukemia HL-60 cells.

1. Nardosinone has inhibitory effect on Ang II-induced hypertrophy in H9c2 cells, might be mediated by targeting PI3K Akt and MEK ERK signaling pathways. 2. Nardosinone could protect against the neuronal injury exposed to OGD, which may be relevant to the

cGAMP (Cyclic GMP-AMPP) diammonium serves as an intrinsic second messenger in metazoans, initiating the production of interferons upon cytosolic DNA detection. It activates the stimulator of interferon genes (STING), subsequently triggering a signaling cascade that culminates in the synthesis of type I interferons and various immune mediators [1] [2] [3] [4].

Cerevisterol is a cytotoxic steroid, can inhibit the activity of DNA polymerase alpha. It can stimulate NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth on PC12 cells.

Cyclic GMP is an endogenous second messenger that initiates interferon production in response to cytoplasmic DNA. It activates the stimulator of interferon genes (STING), triggering a signaling cascade that results in the production of type I interferons and other immune mediators. The conjugate of cyclic GMP and AMP, known as Cyclic-GMP-AMP, can induce the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of IRF3, thereby enhancing antiviral immune responses. Additionally, Cyclic GMP may activate PDE to degrade cAMP, inhibit the myocardial calcium current ICa, and regulate cardiac contractility. The derivative 8-Br-cGMP exhibits antiplatelet activity, and Cyclic GMP is used in research related to antiviral immunity and cardiovascular diseases.
