P53R3 is a novel p53 reactivator that restores sequence-specific DNA binding of the endogenously expressed p53(R175H) and p53(R273H) mutants in gel-shift assays; induces p53-dependent antiproliferative effects with much higher specificity and over a wider range of concentrations than PRIMA-1; strongly enhances the mRNA, total protein and cell surface expression of DR5.
SCH529074 is a potent and orally active p53 activator. SCH529074 binds specifically and conformation-dependently to p53 DBD ( DNA binding domain) with a Ki of 1-2 μM in a saturable manner. SCH529074 restores mutant p53 function and interrupts HDM2-mediated ubiquitination of wild Type p53. SCH529074 can be used for the study of non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC)[1][2].
HLI373 dihydrochloride is an efficacious Hdm2 inhibitor. HLI373 dihydrochloride inhibits the ubiquitin ligase activity of Hdm2. HLI373 dihydrochloride is effective in inducing apoptosis of several tumor cells that are sensitive to DNA-damaging agents[1]. Antimalarial activity[2].
Hexapeptide-11 is a bioactive peptide with anti-aging effect. Hexapeptide-11 protects fibroblasts against oxidative stress-mediated premature cellular senescence by mediating a downregulation of cellular proteins, such as ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and p53 [1].
MI-773 is a new small molecule inhibitor of the MDM2-p53 interaction, binds to MDM2 with high affinity (Ki=0.88 nM) and blocks the p53-MDM2 interaction.
Tenovin-6 is a water soluble inhibitor of SIRT1 and SIRT2, slightly inhibits HDAC8, and is also a potent activator of p53, with IC50s of 21 μM, 10 μM, and 67 μM for SirT1, SirT2, and SirT3, respectively.
PK11007 is a mild thiol alkylator with anticancer activity. PK11007 stabilizes p53 via selective alkylation of two surface-exposed cysteines without compromising its DNA binding activity. PK11007 induces mutant p53 cancer cell death by increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels[1][2].
BI-0282 (Compound 1) is a potent MDM2-p53 interaction inhibitor[1].
MMRi62, a Ferroptosis inducer targeting MDM2-MDM4 (negative regulators of tumor suppressor p53). MMRi62 shows a P53-independent pro-apoptotic activity against pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells and induce Autophagy. MMRi62 inducesFerroptosis, resulting in a increase of reactive oxygen and lysosomal degradation of ferritin heavy chain (FTH1). MMRi62 also leads to proteasomal degradation of mutant p53, also inhibits orthotopic xenograft PDAC mouse model in vivo with high frequency mutation characteristics of KRAS and TP53.12[1][2].
Kevetrin hydrochloride is a small molecule and activator of the tumor suppressor protein p53, with potential antineoplastic activity. Target:p53in vitro: Kevetrin activates p53 which in turn induces the expressions of p21 and PUMA (p53 up-regulated modulator of apoptosis), thereby inhibiting cancer cell growth and causing tumor cell apoptosis. Kevetrin may be effective in drug-resistant cancers with mutated p53. p53 tumor suppressor, a transcription factor regulating the expression of many stress response genes and mediating various anti-proliferative processes, is often mutated in cancer cells. in vivo: Kevetrin has demonstrated potent anti-tumor efficacy against various carcinoma xenograft models: lung, breast, colon, prostate and squamous cell carcinoma, and in a leukemia tumor model. In drug-resistant cell lines, Kevetrin has shown excellent activity, galvanizing the Company to focus on Kevetrin's development potential in this area.
Anticancer agent 42 (compound 10d) is an orally active anticancer agent, and shows a potent antitumor activity against MDA-MB-231 cell with an IC50 of 0.07 μM. Anticancer agent 42 can exert its anticancer activity by activating apoptotic pathway and p53 expression. Anticancer agent 42 can be used to study metastatic breast cancer[1].
Lepadin E is a significantly cytotoxic ferroptosis inducer that induces iron death through the classical p53-SLC7A11-GPX4 pathway. Lepadin E promoted p53 expression, decreases SLC7A11 and GPX4 levels, and leads to increased ROS and lipid peroxide production, and upregulated ACSL4 expression, thus causes cell death. Lepadin E has significant antitumor effect[1].
Verminoside is an iridoid isolated from Kigelia africana, exhibits anti-inflammatory and remarkable antioxidant activity with a radical-scavenging activity of 2.5 μg/mL. The genotoxicity of Verminoside on human lymphocytes is associated with elevated levels of PARP-1 and p53 proteins[1][2][3].
CTX1 is a novel small molecule p53 activator.
