EI1 (Ezh2 inhibitor) is a potent and selective EZH2 inhibitor with IC50 of 15 nM and 13 nM for EZH2 (WT) and EZH2 (Y641F), respectively.

15-Lipoxygenase Inhibitor 1 is a selective inhibitor of 15-lipoxygenase, with an IC50 of 18 μM. 4-MMPB (15-Lipoxygenase Inhibitor 1) has IC50s of 19.5 μM and 19.1 μM for soybean 15-lipoxygenase (SLO) and human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1), respectively. 4-MMPB has potential for the research of prostate cancer.

Evofosfamide (TH-302) is a hypoxia-activated prodrug of the cytotoxin bromo-isophosphoramide mustard (Br-IPM) conjugated with 2-nitroimidazole, with potential antineoplastic activity. When exposed to hypoxic conditions, such as those found in hypoxic tumors, the 2-nitroimidazole moiety of evofosfamide is reduced. This releases the DNA-alkylating Br-IPM moiety, which introduces intra- and inter-strand DNA crosslinks in nearby cells; the crosslinks inhibit both DNA replication and cell division and may lead to apoptosis of cells in the tumor. The inactive form of the prodrug is stable under normoxic conditions, which may limit systemic toxicity.

NM-3 is an orally available anti-angiogenic inhibitor with anti-tumour activity.NM-3 is used as a radiation modulator in vitro and in vivo.NM-3 inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), thereby inhibiting the proliferation of endothelial cells. This inhibits the proliferation of endothelial cells. NM-3 is associated with a mechanism of apoptosis induction by reactive oxygen species.

Hirsutine induces apoptosis and is a potent Dengue virus inhibitor exhibiting low cytotoxicity.Hirsutine has anticancer, cardioprotective, anti-hypertensive and anti-arrhythmic activities, it also has vasodilatation activity, the mechanism is related to blockade of Ca2+ influx through L-type Ca2+ channels and inhibition of intracellular Ca2+ release may have no relationship with K+ channels.
