Sodium Salicylate (Salicylic acid sodium salt) inhibits cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) activity independently of transcription factor (NF-κB) activation. Sodium Salicylate is also a S6K inhibitor.Sodium Salicylate is a NF-κB inhibitor that decreases inflammatory gene expression and improves repair in aged muscle.

Periplocin is a cardiotonic steroid isolated from root-bark Periploca sepium Bunge. Periplocin promotes tumor cell apoptosis and inhibits tumor growth. Periplocin has the potential to facilitate wound healing through the activation of Src/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways mediated by Na/K-ATPase.

Gymnemic acid I is a bioactive triterpene saponin found in Gymnema sylvestre. Gymnemic acid I is an antisweetness inhibitor via human sweet receptor type 1 receptor 2 (T1R2) and T1R3. Gymnemic acid I is a ribosomal protein biosynthesis inhibitor. Gymnemic acid I has antidiabetic effects. Gymnema acid I induces autophagy-protected MIN-6 cells from apoptosis under high glucose stress by inhibiting the phosphorylation activity of mTOR.

Isovanillin is an aldehyde oxidase inhibitor. Antispasmodic activities. Antidiarrheal activities.

Caudatin is an orally active and brain-penetrant C-21 steroidal found in Cynanchum bungei decne with a variety of biological activities. Caudatin can inhibit cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cause cell phase arrest, induce apoptosis, autophagy, ROS prodution and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. Caudatin activates PARP, caspase-3, -7, -9, upregulates pro-apoptotic Bad and Bax and downregulates anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL. Caudatin suppresses VEGF, FAK phosphorylation, upregulates p21, p27, DR5 protein expression, activates the p38 MAPK, JNK and PPARα/TFEB-mediated autophagy-lysosomal signaling pathways. Caudatin can be used for the research of cancer, inflammation and neurological disease, such as glioma and Alzheimer's disease.
