Ursolic acid (Prunol) is a natural triterpenoid carboxylic acid compound with preventive and anticancer activities. Ursolic acid also has proteasome agonist activity, EC50=14 μmol/L. Ursolic acid efficiently induces apoptosis, possibly via the downregulation of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), the upregulation of Bcl-2-associated X protein and the proteolytic activation of caspase-3. Furthermore, the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase is increased by the administration of ursolic acid. In addition, Ursolic acid significantly suppresses the invasive phenotype of the SNU-484 cells and significantly decreases the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2.

| Vacuolin-1
Vacuolin-1 is a cell-permeable inhibitor of Ca2+ dependent fusion of lysosomes to the cell membrane. Vacuolin-1 blocks the Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of lysosomes and prevents the release of lysosomal content without affecting the process of resealing. vacuolin‐1 is a potent and selective PIKfyve inhibitor and inhibits late‐stage autophagy by impairing lysosomal maturation. |
