Quinidine (15% dihydroquinidine) exerts sustained block and open-channel block effects on I_K(f). Quinidine (15% dihydroquinidine) alters the urinary metabolic ratio of Amphetamine, modulates the Pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure threshold, and regulates the anticonvulsant effect of Dextromethorphan. Quinidine (15% dihydroquinidine) can be used in studies related to uterine sarcoma and seizures.

Aurachin D is an antibiotic and selective cytochrome bd oxidase inhibitor. Aurachin D exhibits inhibitory effects against Gram-positive bacteria and a small number of fungi, with an IC₅₀ value of 0.1 μM against Escherichia coli and an IC₅₀ value ranging from 0.13 to 33 μM against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Aurachin D binds to and inhibits cytochrome bd oxidase, thereby blocking the electron transfer process, disrupting the respiratory chain and energy metabolism of pathogens. Aurachin D can be used in research related to leishmaniasis, malaria, Chagas disease, African trypanosomiasis, and tuberculosis[2].

(S)-10-Hydroxycamptothecin (10-HCPT;10-Hydroxycamptothecin) is a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor of isolated from the Chinese plant Camptotheca accuminata. (S)-10-Hydroxycamptothecin exhibits a remarkable apoptosis-inducing effect. (S)-10-Hydroxycamptothecin has the potential for hepatoma, gastric carcinoma, colon cancer and leukaemia treatment.

Quinine hydrochloride dihydrate (Qualaquin) is an orally active and can be used in anti-malarial studies. Quinine hydrochloride dihydrate is a potassium channel inhibitor that inhibits WT mouse Slo3 (K_Ca5.1) channel currents evoked by voltage pulses to +100 mV with an IC₅₀ of 169 μM.

Kynurenic acid sodium, an endogenous tryptophan metabolite, is a broad-spectrum antagonist targeting NMDA, glutamate, α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Kynurenic acid sodium is also an agonist of GPR35/CXCR8.

Cinchonine is a natural compound present in Cinchona bark with antimalarial, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti platelet-aggregation and anti-obesity properties. Cinchonine inhibits cells proliferation and autophagy and induces apoptosis through activation of Caspase-3. Cinchonine activates endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis in human liver cancer cells.

Noscapine ((S,R)-Noscapine) is an orally active phthalideisoquinoline alkaloid with potent antitussive. Noscapine exerts its antitussive effects by activating sigma opioid receptors and is a non-competitive Bradykinin inhibitor. Noscapine disrupts microtubule dynamics, induces mitotic arrest and apoptosis. Noscapine possesses anticancer, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory activities, and can cross the blood-brain barrier.
