urokinase-type ,plasminogen

4-Aminobenzamidine dihydrochloride (p-Aminobenzamidine dihydrochloride) is a strong trypsin inhibitor and a relatively weak inhibitor of urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA) (K i =82 μM). 4-Aminobenzamidine can inhibit growth of a human prostate tumor in SCID mice [1] [2].

Benzamidine hydrochloride (Benzamidine HCl) is a reversible inhibitor of serine proteases, including trypsin, plasmin, and thrombin (Ki of 35, 350, and 220 μM, respectively).

1. 6-Shogaol (6-Shogaol) has antipyretic and analgesic effects in addition to inhibitory effect on lipoxygenase activity. 2. 6-shogaol has anti-inflammatory property, reduces the inflammatory response and protected the femoral cartilage from damage produced in a CFA monoarthritic model of the knee joint of rats. 3. 6-Shogaol inhibits the growth of human cancer cells and induces apoptosis in COLO 25 cells through modulation of mitochondrial functions regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). 4. 6-Shogaol effectively inhibit invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma through diverse molecular mechanisms, including inhibition of the MAPK and PI3k Akt pathways and NF-κB and STAT3 activities to suppress expression of MMP-2 -9 and uPA and block angiogenesis, could further regulate urokinase-type plasminogen activity.

UKI-1 is a urokinase-type plasminogen activator system synthetic inhibitor.

GGACK is an inhibitor of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and factor Xa (Kis = 1.8 and 8.7 μM, respectively).1,2 1.Kettner, C., and Shaw, E.The susceptibility of urokinase to affinity labeling by peptides of arginine chloromethyl ketoneBiochim.

UK122 is a highly effective and specific inhibitor of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) with an IC50 value of 0.2 μM. It displays negligible to minimal inhibition towards tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), plasmin, thrombin, and trypsin (all IC50 >100 μM). Functioning as a 4-oxazolidinone analogue, UK122 is an anticancer agent that effectively inhibits cancer cell migration and invasion.

UK-356,202 is a potent and selective urokinase-type plasminogen activator (Ki = 37 nM). Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA, urokinase) is a trypsinlike serine protease and a therapeutical target for many cancer types, including breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer. uPA is a valuable oncology target.

Urokinase peptidolytic (Urokinase-type plasminogen activator) is a serine protease, an inactive form (zymogen) of the serine protease plasminogen. Activation of plasmin triggers a proteolytic cascade reaction, which in turn participates in thrombolysis or extracellular matrix degradation, implicated in vascular disease and cancer-related research [1] .

Bicyclic UK18 is a competitive inhibitor of human urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) with a Ki value of 53 nM.

UK140 is an inhibitor of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), with Ki values of 0.20 µM for human uPA (huPA) and 2.79 µM for mouse uPA (muPA). UK140 is applicable in studies related to tumor metastasis.
