Field of application
Almorexant(ACT078573) is a potent and competitive dual orexin 1 receptor (OX1)/orexin 2 receptor (OX2) antagonist with Ki values of 1.3 and 0.17 nM for OX1 and OX2, respectively.IC50 value: 1.3/0.7 nM(OX1/OX2 receptor) [1] [2]Target: Dual OX!/OX2 receptorin vitro: [(3)H]Almorexant bound to a single saturable site on hOX(1) and hOX(2) with high affinity (K(d) of 1.3 and 0.17 nM, respectively. In Schild analyses using the [(3)H]inositol phosphates assay, almorexant acted as a competitive antagonist at hOX(1) and as a noncompetitive-like antagonist at hOX(2). In binding kinetic analyses, [(3)H]almorexant had fast association and dissociation rates at hOX(1), whereas it had a fast association rate and a remarkably slow dissociation rate at hOX(2) [1]. in vivo: During the 12-h dark period after dosing, ALM(Almorexant) exacerbated cataplexy in TG mice and increased nonrapid eye movement sleep with heightened sleep/wake fragmentation in both genotypes. ALM showed greater hypnotic potency in WT mice than in TG mice. The 100 mg/kg dose conferred maximal promotion of cataplexy in TG mice and maximal promotion of REM sleep in WT mice. In TG mice, ALM (30 mg/ kg) paradoxically induced a transient increase in active wakefulness [3]. Almorexant 200 mg showed significantly less 'Drug Liking' than both zolpidem doses (p < 0.01), and almorexant 400 mg had smaller effects than zolpidem 20 mg (p < 0.05), while almorexant 1,000 mg was not different from either zolpidem dose [4].

DC31074 Isopropyl myristate Isopropyl myristate is the ester of isopropyl alcohol and myristic acid.
DC75202 Fosaprepitant free acid Fosaprepitant, also known as MK0517, is an antiemetic drug, administered intravenously. It is a prodrug of aprepitant. Fosaprepitant was developed by Merck & Co. and was approved. It is a prodrug of Aprepitant. It aids in the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy treatment. Fosaprepitant is a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4, and aprepitant, the active moiety, is a substrate, inhibitor, and inducer of CYP3A4
DC74684 ZH8667 ZH8667 is a trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1)–Gs agonist.
DC74646 EB-PSMA-617 EB-PSMA-617 is an Evans blue-modified prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) 617 ligand for making 177Lu-EB-PSMA, which is potential useful for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
DC74641 HC-258 HC-258 is a Covalent Acrylamide TEAD Inhibitor That Reduces Gene Expression and Cell Migration. HC-258 reduces the CTGF, CYR61, AXL, and NF2 transcript levels and inhibits the migration of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Co-crystallization with hTEAD2 confirmed that HC-258 binds within TEAD’s PA pocket, where it forms a covalent bond with its cysteine.
DC74639 Oligopeptide-10 Oligopeptide-10, also known as granactive oligopeptide-10, is a synthetic bio-active peptide composed of 15 amino acids. it can help manage acne-causing bacteria, both on its own and in conjunction with anti-acne superstar exfoliant salicylic acid.
DC74638 GLPG3667 GLPG3667 is an oral, reversible, and selective tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor. It is being developed to treat inflammatory and auto-immune diseases. Biochemical assays showed that GLPG3667 displayed nanomolar potency on TYK2 with a selectivity over other JAK kinases >3-fold. In human PBMC, GLPG3667 showed comparable potency on the IFNα and IL-23 pathways (around 50 nM). Selectivity for TYK2 on the IFNα pathway was >14-fold and >19-fold toward the IL-2 and GM-CSF pathways in human PBMC and whole blood, respectively. Dermal ear inflammation in a mouse model of psoriasis driven by IL-23 was prevented by GLPG3667 with a minimal effective dose of 3 mg/kg given orally once daily. This effect was associated with a decrease in neutrophil infiltration and STAT3 phosphorylation at sites of inflammation. In healthy HV, GLPG3667 completely inhibited IFNα-induced STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation but did not impact IL-2- and GM-CSF-induced STAT5 phosphorylation.
DC74557 PREX-in1 PREX-in1 is a specific small-molecule inhibitor of P-Rex1 and P-Rex2 Rac-GEF activity with IC50 of 4.5 uM (P-Rex1 DHPH Rac-GEF activity) in liposome-based GEF assay, inhibits P-Rex1 and P-Rex2 through their catalytic DH domain.
DC74555 GYS32661 GYS32661 (GYS 32661) is a potent Rac inhibitor capable of inhibiting both Rac1 and Rac1b, inhibited activated Rac1 with IC50 of 1.18 uM in in vitro pull-down assays.
DC74540 MTX-3937 MTX-3937 is a small-molecule inhibitor targeting Siglec-9 (Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-type lectin-9), a member of the Siglec family of immunomodulatory receptors. Siglec-9 is primarily expressed on immune cells, such as myeloid cells and natural killer (NK) cells, and plays a role in regulating immune responses by transmitting inhibitory signals through its intracellular immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs).
