MG-002
|
MG-002 is a second-generation, orally bioavailable inhibitor of eIF4A, a key RNA helicase involved in the initiation of cap-dependent mRNA translation. By targeting eIF4A, MG-002 effectively disrupts the translation of certain mRNAs, particularly those with complex 5' untranslated regions (UTRs) that are highly dependent on eIF4A activity. This mechanism of action makes MG-002 a promising candidate for targeting cancers and other diseases driven by dysregulated translation. |

EGPI-1
|
EGPI-1 is a potent small molecule that inhibits the translation initiation factors eIF4E/eIF4G interaction.EGPI-1 has potent antiproliferative and proapoptotic activity in multiple myeloma cells, Jurkat cells, and A549 lung cancer cell lines, inhibts A549 proliferation with IC50 of 2.61 uM, which is better than that of 4EGI-1 (IC50=58.6 uM), inhibits cancer cell growth by inhibiting eIF4E phosphorylation and inhibiting PI3K/Akt/mTOR signal pathway.EGPI-1 induces autophagy, apoptosis, G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and ROS generation in A549 cells, disrupts the mitochondrial membrane potential (∆ψ m).EGPI-1 demonstrated in vivo anti-tumor activities in A549-xenografted athymic mice (25 mg/kg/day, 50 mg/kg/day, i.p.). |

Zotatifin
|
Zotatifin (eFT226) is a potent, selective, and well-tolerated eIF4A inhibitor. Zotatifin promotes eIF4A binding to specific mRNA sequences with recognition motifs in the 5’-UTRs (IC50=2 nM) and interferes with the assembly of the eIF4F initiation complex. Zotatifin shows robust antiviral effects, it effectively reduces viral infectivity by inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 NP protein biogenesis (IC90=37 nM). Zotatifin induces cell apoptosis. |

4E2RCat
|
4E2RCat is an inhibitor of eIF4E-eIF4G interaction with an IC50 of 13.5 μM. |
