Cancer is most accurately described as a class of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and division.There are more than a hundred defined types of cancer.
Cancer can occur in nearly every organ or tissue in the body.
Various small molecules are widely used in the research of cancer. Especially in the last decade, cancer research has evolved from a one-size-fits-all approach that emphasized cytotoxic chemotherapy to a more personalized medical strategy that focuses on the discovery and development of targeted drugs.
These drugs are designed, on a molecular level, to exploit particular genetic dependencies, addictions, and vulnerabilities of cancer cells.
Much current cancer research is concentrated in the areas of programmed cell death, tumor invasion and angiogenesis, tumor immunology, oncogenic signaling, gene expression and copy number, epigenetic regulation, toxicity and chemoresistance, metabolic stress and damage to DNA. Fermentek offers more than 30 unique biochemicals currently being used in cancer research.

Wortmannin is a steroid metabolite of the fungus Talaromyces wortmannii. It is a specific covalent inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinases. Wortmannin has been used as precursor of an experimental anti-cancer drug PX-866
DMSO, Methanol.
Wortmannin is unstable in aqueous and ethanolic solutions.
Wortmannin is an inhibitor of phosphatidyl-inositol 3-kinase Wortmannin inhibits the growth of mammary tumors despite the existence of a novel wortmannin-insensitive phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase. Wortmannin inhibits repair of DNA double-strand breaks in irradiated normal human cells. Wortmannin was shown to have enhancing influence on memory and impair learning abilities. .
Cyclic polypeptide antibiotic Virginiamycin S1 is a major component of virginiamycin complex, which is used in veterynary medicine to treat Gram-positive infections, and as a growth promoter in young swine and cattle.
Virginiamycin is originated in Streptomyces virginiae, but also other strains of streptomycettes. Virginiamycin S1 is a cyclic polypeptide antibiotic, of Streptogramin group B class. Reportedly, it targets the 60S ribosomal protein L37 affecting translation, ribosomal structure. It binds to the 23S rRNA
Virginiamycin S1 is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMSO, Dichloromethane, DMF, and sparingly, in water .
Cyclic peptide antibiotic, Streptogramin group

Tunicamycin is a mixture of homologous nucleoside antibiotics.
The main homologs differ in the length of the fatty chain moiety.
The following table defines the four main Tunicamycin homologs.
Tunicamycins inhibit protein glycosylation. They arrest cell cycle in late G1As Tunicamycin affects cell membrane permeability, it was shown to increase production of antibiotics, such as streptomycin PRODUCT USE A tool to study glycoprotein synthesis in a wide variety of biological systems. Family of nucleoside antibiotics produced by Streptomyces lysosuperificus. Tunicamycin interferes with glycoprotein synthesis in yeast and mammalian systems and enhances antiviral and anticellular activity of interferon. Possesses cell - surface altering activity. Inhibits the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate from UDP -N- acetylglucosamine to dolichol monophosphate and thereby blocks the formation of N-glycosidic protein-carbohydrate linkages. Active in vitro against Gram-positive bacteria, yeasts, fungi and viruses.

Thiostrepton is a broad spectrum polypeptide antibiotic which targets a wide range of gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
Thiostrepton is soluble in chloroform, dichloromethane, dioxane, pyridine, glacial acetic acid, DMF. Practically insoluble in water, the lower alcohols, nonpolar organic solvents, diluted aqeous acids or bases. It may be dissolved by methanolic acid or base, but with decomposition. Working solution of 1% in DMSO is unstable and should be freshly prepared and protected from light.
Polypeptide antibiotic
Antimicrobial
Thiostrepton is used as a reagent for both positive and negative selection of genes involved in nucleotide metabolism. Thiostrepton is highly active against gram-positive bacteria. In its crude form, Thiostrepton is used in veterinary medicine, in mastitis caused by gram-negative organisms and in dermatologic disorders. inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. Inhibits mRNA-tRNA translocation by GTPase elongation factor G (EF-G), EF-TU(GTP)-catalyzed aa-tRNA delivery and the activity of initiation factor 2 (IF-2).
As an antitumoragent Thiostrepton induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in breast cancer cells via downregulation of FOXM1 expression. Thiostrepton is a FoxM1 specific inhibitor.
