FR900359 is a depsipeptide selective inhibitor of Gα_q/11/14 in mammalia, can inhibits ERK pathway. FR900359 suppresses the proliferation of melanoma cells and decreases of blood pressure. FR900359 also protected against airway hyperreactivity in murine models of allergen sensitization in Ovalbumin, low endotoxin (HY-W250978A)-induced sensitization model of asthma. FR900359 can be used for cancer and cardiovascular disease research.

Embelin (Embelic acid), a potent, nonpeptidic XIAP inhibitor (IC₅₀=4.1 μM), inhibits cell growth, induces apoptosis, and activates caspase-9 in prostate cancer cells with high levels of XIAP. Embelin blocks NF-kappaB signaling pathway leading to suppression of NF-kappaB-regulated antiapoptotic and metastatic gene products. Embelin also induces autophagic and apoptotic cell death in human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells.

5-Pentadecylresorcinol (Adipostatin A) is a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 4.1 μM. Adipostatin A shows good larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti.

Ardisiacrispin B displays cytotoxic effects in multi-factorial agent resistant cancer cells via ferroptotic and apoptotic cell death.

Ardisiacrispin A (Deglucocyclamin) is a common triterpenoid saponin from Ardisia species. Ardisiacrispin A has similar biological properties with some triterpenoid saponins in A. crenata which is one of the species of genus Ardisia and exhibits cytotoxic effect on tumor cells, immunomodulatory and antiviral activities.

Rapanone is a natural benzoquinone. Rapanone exhibits a broad spectrum of biological actions, including anti-tumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiparasitic. Rapanone also is a potent and selective human synovial PLA₂ inhibitor, with an IC₅₀ of 2.6 μM.

Ardisicrenoside A exhibits anti-cancer activity.

2-Methyl-3-phenylpropanal is a volatile aromatic compound found in the flowers of legume host plants such as cowpeas and lentils. 2-Methyl-3-phenylpropanal can specifically bind to the odor-binding protein MvitOBP3 of the bean pod moth and exert potential oviposition attraction activity. 2-Methyl-3-phenylpropanal can be used for pest control.

Embelin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Embelin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Embelin (Embelic acid), a potent, nonpeptidic XIAP inhibitor (IC50=4.1 μM), inhibits cell growth, induces apoptosis, and activates caspase-9 in prostate cancer cells with high levels of XIAP. Embelin blocks NF-kappaB signaling pathway leading to suppression of NF-kappaB-regulated antiapoptotic and metastatic gene products. Embelin also induces autophagic and apoptotic cell death in human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells.

5-Pentadecylresorcinol (Standard) is the analytical standard of 5-Pentadecylresorcinol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 5-Pentadecylresorcinol (Adipostatin A) is a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) inhibitor with an IC50 of 4.1 μM. Adipostatin A shows good larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti.

1-Ketoaethiopinone is an abietane-diterpenoid. 1-Ketoaethiopinone has an α, β-unsaturated carbonyl function. 1-Ketoaethiopinone shows cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines MOLT-4 (human lymphoblastic leukemia) and MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma).

Microstegiol is a diterpene that can be isolated from Salvia microstegia and the root of Zhumeria majdae.
