para-amino-Blebbistatin is a more water-soluble form of (S)-4'-nitro-blebbistatin , which is a more stable and less phototoxic form of (-)-blebbistatin .1,2,3 (-)-Blebbistatin is a selective cell-permeable inhibitor of non-muscle myosin II ATPases that rapidly and reversibly inhibits Mg-ATPase activity and in vitro motility of non-muscle myosin IIA and IIB for several species (IC50s = 0.5-5 μM), while poorly inhibiting smooth muscle myosin (IC50 = 80 μM).2,3,4 Through these effects, it blocks apoptosis-related bleb formation, directed cell migration, and cytokinesis in vertebrate cells. However, prolonged exposure to blue light (450-490 nm) results in degradation of blebbistatin to an inactive product via cytotoxic intermediates, which may be problematic for its use in fluorescent live cell imaging applications.5,6 The addition of a 4'-amino group increases its water solubility, decreases the inherent fluorescence, stabilizes the molecule to circumvent its degradation by prolonged blue light exposure, and decreases its phototoxicity while retaining the in vitro and in vivo activity of blebbistatin.7 para-amino-Blebbistatin has the same stereochemistry as the active (-)-blebbistatin enantiomer. |1.

Bactenecin 5, a bovine antibacterial peptide, exhibits activity against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 12-25 μg/mL [1].

EGFRvIII peptide, a synthetic peptide mirroring the EGFRvIII fusion junction—a tumor-specific, perpetually active EGFR variant missing amino acids 6-273 of the wild-type—binds to HLA-A*0201-positive T2 cells under MHC class I at 25 µg/ml. It enables antigen presentation in dendritic cells from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), thus activating CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes and prompting IFN-γ production. Administered at 15 µg/animal with the TLR5 agonist flagellin B, EGFRvIII peptide elevates CD8+ T cell numbers, lowers regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the brain, diminishes tumor volume, and extends survival in a GL261 glioblastoma mouse model.

PD-1/PD-L1-IN-25 is an inhibitor of PD-1/PD-L1 interaction (IC50: 16.17 nM) that effectively activates anti-tumor immunity of T cells in PBMCs. PD-1/PD-L1-IN-25 can be used to study cancer.

2-(1-(Thiophen-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide is an antimicrobial agent.1It is active against the Gram-negative bacteriaE. coli,P. aeruginosa, andS. marcescens(MICs = 64, 100, and 70 μg/ml, respectively), the Gram-positive bacteriaS. aureus,M. luteus, andB. cereus(MICs = 130, 100, and 50 μg/ml, respectively), and the fungiC. albicans,G. candidum,T. rubrum,F. oxysporum,A. flavus, andS. brevicaulis(MICs = 69-120 μg/ml). 2-(1-(Thiophen-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide is also a precursor in the synthesis of other antimicrobial agents, as well as compounds with anticancer activity.1,2 1.Youssef, M.S.K., and Abeed, A.A.O.Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some novel 2-thienyl substituted heterocyclesHeterocycl.

This process promotes the activation and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) production by CD4+ helper T cells, triggering targeted and broad-spectrum antitumor responses.

Thujopsene, a sesquiterpene found in T. dolabrata, exhibits a wide range of biological activities. It inhibits Na+/K+-ATPase and cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2B6 with IC50 values of 25.9 µg/ml and Ki of 0.8 µM, respectively. Additionally, thujopsene demonstrates antimicrobial efficacy against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, such as S. aureus, M. luteus, and S. typhimurium, with MICs ranging from 25-50 µg/ml. It also suppresses antigen-induced β-hexosaminidase release in IgE-sensitized RBL-2H3 mast cells (IC50= 25.1 µM) and shows cytotoxicity against A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells with an LC50 of 35.27 µg/ml.

Pyridaben is a METI acaricide that inhibits mitochondrial electron transport at complex I (METI; Ki = 0.36 nmol/mg protein in rat brain mitochondria).

Amyloid-β (25-35) (Aβ (25-35)) is an 11-residue fragment of the Aβ protein that retains the physical and biological characteristics of the full length peptide. It forms fibrils that react to thioflavin T and Congo red and are organized in a cross-β arrangement of β-strands similar to Aβ (1-40) and Aβ (1-42) fibrils. Aggregated Aβ (25-35) decreases the viability of rat adrenal PC12 cells. It also decreases the viability of primary rat cortical neurons at concentrations ranging from 1 nM to 30 μM. In vivo, intracerebral injection of Aβ (25-35) (20 nmol) in rats induces lesions of neuronal and tissue loss. Aggregated Aβ (25-35) administered intracerebroventricularly to rats induces learning and memory impairments in the Y-maze, novel object recognition, and contextual fear conditioning tests.
