Doxorubicin hydrochloride is an anthracycline antibiotic with cytotoxic and antitumor activity. It is an effective inhibitor of human DNA topoisomerase I and II, with IC50 values of 0.8 μM and 2.67 μM, respectively. In addition to inhibiting DNA topoisomerases, it can reduce the phosphorylation of AMPK and its downstream target, acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Doxorubicin hydrochloride also induces apoptosis and autophagy. In animal studies, it is commonly used to induce models of acute renal failure, chronic kidney injury, and heart failure.

Paclitaxel (Taxol) is a natural product and a microtubule polymer stabilizer. Paclitaxel has anti-tumor activity and causes cell death by inducing mitotic arrest, apoptosis, and cell autophagy.

Dxd (OQM5SD32BQ) is a potent DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor (IC50= 0.31 μM). Dxd was used as a conjugate drug for HER2-targeted ADCs.

Thailanstatin A is an ultra-potent inhibitor of eukaryotic RNA splicing (IC50 = 650 nM). It inhibits multiple cancer cell lines via non-covalent binding to the SF3b subunit of the U2 snRNA subcomplex of the spliceosome, displaying low-nM to sub-nM IC50s. Thailanstatin A, as a payload for ADCs, is conjugated to the lysines on trastuzumab, yielding linker-less ADC.

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.

Duocarmycin TM is a DNA alkylator. Duocarmycin TM is an exceptionally potent antitumor antibiotic.

Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) is a fluorescent anthracycline antitumor antibiotic that inhibits Topoisomerase I/II, induces apoptosis and autophagy, downregulates the AMPK signaling pathway, and is commonly used in cancer chemotherapy as well as in models of nephritis and heart failure.

Daunorubicin hydrochloride (Rubidomycin hydrochloride), an anthracycline aminoglycoside antineoplastic, inhibits DNA replication and repair and RNA and protein synthesis.

Methotrexate (WR19039) is a folate analog, an inhibitor of the dihydrofolate reductase DHFR. Methotrexate has antimetabolic, antitumor, and immunosuppressive activities, and is commonly used in rheumatoid arthritis and various tumors.

Eribulin (B1939) is a nonpaclitaxel microtubule kinetic inhibitor with anticancer activity that inhibits polymerization of microtubule protein subunits by preventing lengthening and shortening of microtubules during cell division.Eribulin is used in the study of metastatic breast cancer and solid tumors.

Exatecan (DX-8951f) is a DNA topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 2.2 μM (0.975 μg/mL).Exatecan has antitumor activity and may be used in cancer research.

Calicheamicin (Calicheamicin γ1) is an antitumor antibiotic and is a DNA synthesis inhibitor. It also is a cytotoxic agent that causes double-strand DNA breaks.

Monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) (MMAE), an antimitotic agent, inhibits cell division by blocking the polymerization of tubulin and also has inhibition of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) activity.

SN-38 (NK012) is the active metabolite of Irinotecan, a DNA topoisomerase I (Topo I) inhibitor, which inhibits DNA and RNA synthesis (IC50=0.077/1.3 μM). SN-38 has antitumor activity and induces autophagy.

10-Methoxycamptothecin, a natural bioactive derivative of camptothecin (CPT) isolated from *Camptotheca acuminata*, exhibits potent anti-cancer properties.

MMAF (MonoMethyl auristatin F), an antimitotic agent, inhibits cell division by blocking the polymerization of tubulin.

Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride is an albumin-binding prodrug of Doxorubicin, a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor. Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride is released from albumin under acidic conditions. Aldoxorubicin hydrochloride exhibits potent antitumor activities in various cancer cell lines and in murine tumor models.

FL118-14-Propanol is a cytotoxic camptothecin derivative, a potential topoisomerase I inhibitor with potential antitumor activity, which can be used in the synthesis of ADC compounds.

Camptothecin (CPT) belongs to the alkaloid group of natural products and is a specific DNA topoisomerase I (Topo I) inhibitor (IC50=679 nM) with specificity. Camptothecin has antitumor activity and induces apoptosis.

Mertansine is a tubulin inhibitor and an antibody-conjugable maytansinoid alkaloid. The IC50 of Mertansine against HCT-15 and A431 cells is 0.750 and 0.04nM.

Seco-DUBA is an anticancer DNA alkylating agent and prodrug of DUBA, which can be used as a cytotoxic antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). It has an IC50 of 18 nM against KB and 430 pM against SK-OV-3, and can be converted into DUBA with higher stability and activity in vivo.

Fluticasone propionate (CCI-187881), derived from fluticasone used to remedy asthma and allergic rhinitis, is a high affinity, selective GR (glucocorticoid receptor) agonist.
