D-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate (Ins(1)P1) is a member of the inositol phosphate (InsP) molecular family of second messengers that play a critical role in the transmission of cellular signals. The most studied InsP, Ins(1,4,5)P3, is a second messenger produced in cells by phospholipase C (PLC)-mediated hydrolysis of...

Peptidyl arginine deiminase 2 (PAD2) catalyzes the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline within cellular protein substrates, resulting in the loss of a positive charge, which can alter protein structure and/or function. It is composed of an alpha/beta propeller domain, an IgG1 domain that contains calcium...

(±)9-HpODE is a racemic mixture of the fatty acid hydroperoxide product (9(S)-HpODE) formed from lipoxygenase action on linoleic acid. It shows antimicrobial activity against various fungal and bacterial pathogens and thus may play a role in plant defense. In mammalian species, monocyte-induced oxidization of LDL...

Methylhexanamine (hydrochloride) is a simple aliphatic amine that was once marketed as a nasal decongestant (Forthane) but is now sold as a bodybuilding supplement (Floradrene, Geranamine). It is also sold as a mild stimulant in the form of party pills and has been reported to cause cerebral hemorrhage in a case...

Janus-associated kinases (JAKs) are cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases that are required for activating the signaling of certain cytokines and growth factor receptors. Many myeloproliferative diseases have been linked to a mutation in JAK2 where a switch from valine to phenylalanine occurs at the 617 position (V617F). AZD...

The methylation of lysine residues on histones plays a central role in determining euchromatin structure and gene expression. The histone methyltransferase (HMTase) G9a can mono- or dimethylate lysine 9 on histone 3 (H3), contributing to early embryogenesis, genomic imprinting, and lymphocyte development. UNC0638 is...

Cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha (cPLA2alpha) specifically catalyzes the hydrolysis of arachidonic acid from the sn-2-ester position of membrane phospholipids, playing a central role in initiating the synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, both important mediators of the inflammatory process. CAY10650 is a...

Protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors are potential antiproliferative agents for diseases caused by the hyperactivity of PTKs. Tyrphostins are a class of antiproliferative compounds which selectively inhibit PTKs of key growth factors. AG-879 is a tyrphostin compound that inhibits nerve growth factor...

PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3 (PIP3) serves as an anchor for the binding of signal transduction proteins bearing pleckstrin homology (PH) domains such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) or PTEN. Protein binding to PIP3 is important for cytoskeletal rearrangement and membrane trafficking and initiates an intricate signaling...

The Rho family of small GTPases play an important role in transduction of cell signaling events associated with several human cancers. CCG-1423 is a specific inhibitor of Rho pathway-mediated signaling and activation of serum response factor (SRF) transcription. The site of inhibition in the pathway is not precisely...

(±)-WIN 55,212 is a racemic mixture of the cannabinoid (CB) receptor 1 (CB1) and CB2 agonist (+)-WIN 55,212-2 (Cay-10009023) and the CB2 neutral antagonist (-)-WIN 55,212-3 (Cay-12022). It inhibits electrically induced contractions in mouse vas deferens preparations (IC50 = 0.006 µM) and reduces prostaglandin (PG)...
