E1301New Imlunestrant Imlunestrant(LY3484356) is a potent, orally bioavailable selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) that functions as a pure antagonist of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα). It inhibits ER-dependent gene transcription and cell proliferation, resulting in sustained suppression of estrogen-driven growth in ER-positive cells.
E4845New Ulipristal Ulipristal(Deacetyl CDB-2914, CDB-3236) is a selective modulator of progesterone receptors used in a single dose as an emergency postcoital contraceptive.
E1903New SLU-PP-332 SLU-PP-332 is an agonist of pan-Estrogen Receptor/ERR with EC50 values of 98nM, 230nM, and 430 nM for ERRα, ERRβ, and ERRγ, respectively with the highest potency for ERRα. SLUPP-332 amplifies mitochondrial function and cellular respiration in skeletal muscle cell lines and also offers opportunities for researching metabolic ailments and enhancing muscle functionality.
S8687New MPP dihydrochloride Methyl-piperidino-pyrazole (MPP) dihydrochloride is a highly selective antagonist for estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), with an affinity 200 times greater than for estrogen receptor beta (ERβ). It inhibits 17β-estradiol binding to ERα by inducing conformational changes that alter the receptor’s binding site and also increases the energy required for genistein's interaction with ERα.
E1842New Palazestrant Palazestrant(OP-1250) is an orally bioavailable complete antagonist of estrogen receptor (ER) that blocks ER activity. It exhibits antiproliferative and antitumor activity in ER-positive (ER+) breast cancer models.
