Artemisinin (Qinghaosu) is a natural product, a sesquiterpene lactone, derived from Artemisia annua. Artemisinin has anti-malarial activity, as well as neuroprotective and anti-tumor activity.

Erlotinib (NSC-718781) is an EGFR inhibitor (IC50: 2 nM). It is used for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

Osimertinib (AZD-9291) is an EGFR third-generation inhibitor that inhibits the T790M resistance mutation produced by second-generation EGFR inhibitors with irreversible and oral activity. Osimertinib has antitumor activity for the treatment of EGFR-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer.

Lidocaine (Alphacaine) is an amide local anesthetic with anti-inflammatory properties in vitro and in vivo. It has this functions perhaps due to an attenuation of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), pro-inflammatory cytokines, and reduction of neutrophils influx.

Tauroursodeoxycholate (UR 906), also known as ursodoxicoltaurine, is a highly hydrophilic tertiary bile acid that is produced in humans at a low concentration. Tauroursodeoxycholate is the more hydrophilic form of ursodeoxycholic acid, which is the more abundant naturally produced bile acid in humans.Tauroursodeoxycholate is being investigated for use in several conditions such as Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC), insulin resistance, amyloidosis, Cystic Fibrosis, Cholestasis, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

Lapatinib (GW572016) is an inhibitor of ErbB2 and EGFR (IC50=9.2/10.8 nM) with oral activity. Lapatinib has antitumor activity and can be used to treat advanced or metastatic breast cancer with HER2 overexpression.

Neratinib (HKI-272) (HKI-272) is an orally available, irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor for HER2 and EGFR (IC50: 59/92 nM), respectively.

Astragaloside IV (AS-IV), an active component isolated from Astragalus membranaceus, suppresses the activation of ERK1/2 and JNK, and downregulates matrix metalloproteases (MMP)-2, (MMP)-9 in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Astragaloside IV is a bioactive saponin first isolated from the dried plant roots of the genus Astragalus, which is used in traditional Chinese medicine.1 It dose-dependently inhibits human adenovirus type 3 (HAdV-3) in A549 cells (IC50 = 23 μM; LC50 = 865 μM).It inhibits replication of HAdV-3 and decreases HAdV-3-induced apoptosis. It has diverse protective effects for the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, and nervous systems. In particular, it reduces myocardial infarct size in dogs when administered prior to coronary ligation and reduces reperfusion arrhythmias in isolated rat hearts.
