P53R3 is a potent reactivator of p53, effectively restoring sequence-specific DNA binding to several p53 hot spot mutants, namely p53 R175H, p53 R248W, and p53 R273H. This compound exhibits p53-dependent antiproliferative effects with significantly higher specificity compared to PRIMA-1 and promotes the recruitment of both wild-type p53 and p53 M237I to various target gene promoters. Additionally, P53R3 markedly increases the mRNA, total protein, and cell surface expression of death receptor 5 (DR5), demonstrating its utility in cancer research.

DPBQ (ZINC1620467) is a p53 activator. DPBQ could activate p53 and trigger apoptosis in a polyploid-specific manner, without inhibition of topoisomerase or bind DNA.

BAY 1892005 is a p53 protein modulator that targets the p53 condenser for the study of diseases associated with misfolded p53 protein

Roslin 2 bromide (Benzylhexamethylenetetramine bromide) is a p53 reactivator that disrupts the binding of FAK and p5, exhibiting anticancer effects.

CT-1 is a DNA minor groove ligand and causes p53-dependent breast cancer cell apoptosis.

Pifithrin-μ (NSC-303580) is an inhibitor of p53 and HSP70, with neuroprotective and antitumor activity.

Magnolol (5,5'-Diallyl-2,2'-biphenyldiol) is a dual agonist of RXRα( EC50=10.4 μM) and PPARγ(EC50=17.7 μM). It blocks TNF-α-induced NF-KB activation.

MMRi64 is a specific inhibitor of Mdm2-MdmX E3 ligase activity.MMRi64 potently induces p53 accumulation and apoptosis in the p53 pathway in leukemia/lymphoma cells, disrupts Mdm2-MdmX interactions, and downregulates Mdm2 and MdmX in leukemia cells.MMRi64 MMRi64 can be used in cancer research.
