Steppogenin exhibits significant tyrosinase inhibition activity, ;it also shows strong mushroom tyrosinase inhibitory activity with IC(50) values lower than 50 microM, more potent than kojic acid (IC(50) = 71.6 microM), a well-known tyrosinase inhibitor.

CCI-006 is a selective inhibitor and chemosensitizer of MLL-rearranged leukemia cells. It inhibits mitochondrial respiration resulting in insurmountable mitochondrial depolarization and a pro-apoptotic unfolded protein response in a subset of MLL-r leukemia cells.

cyt-PTPε inhibitor 1 is a potent cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase epsilon (cyt-PTPε) inhibitor, which binds to the catalytic domain of cyt-PTPε and blocks c-Src activation Chemical), and has anti-bone breaking activity.
