  • HY-N9481
    Lipoteichoic acid
    		Activator
    Lipoteichoic acid is an orally effect anti-inflammatory and antitumor agent. Lipoteichoic acid is a crucial immune molecule in Gram-positive bacteria that activates the complement system by inducing C3 and inhibiting CD55. Lipoteichoic acid regulates macrophage autophagy through the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Lipoteichoic acid induces lung damage in mice. Lipoteichoic acid inhibits the production of melanin.
  • HY-P3448
    Certepetide
    		Activator 99.40%
    Certepetide (CEND-1) is a bifunctional cyclic peptide (a.k.a. iRGD). Certepetide is a tumor-penetrating enhancer via RGD motif interaction with alphav-integrins and via activating NRP-1, and transforms the solid tumor microenvironment into a temporary agent conduit. Certepetide accumulates in tumors, and is used in the research of pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors.
  • HY-W130878
    4-Octylphenol
    		Activator
    4-Octylphenol is a hormone disruptor that has gender-specific effects on male reproductive cells, significantly reducing the mitotic index and the number of spermatogonia. 4-Octylphenol can cause inflammatory damage to fish gills by activating the complement system through the C3a/C3aR axis and the C5a/C5aR1 axis, this leads to complement activation and causes immune suppression due to the imbalance between Th1/Th2 cells and regulatory T cells (Treg)/Th17 cells, as well as inflammatory damage via the Toll-like receptor 7 (Toll-like Receptor (TLR))/IκBα/NF-κB pathway.
