trans-Caffeic acid is a growth stimulator that enhances the elongation growth of coleoptile sections.

Cnicin is an orally bioavailable sesquiterpene lactone. Cnicin has antibacterial and antiproliferative properties and induces apoptosis in primary myeloma cells. Cnicin also exhibits activity against SARS-CoV-2. Cnicin inhibits the viral replication of SARS CoV-2 with an IC₅₀ of 1.18 μg/mL. Cnicin can promote functional nerve regeneration.

Albizziin is an amino acid analog with activity as a competitive inhibitor of asparagine synthetase. Albizziin has been used to isolate Chinese hamster ovary cell mutants with altered levels of the target enzyme. Several mutational classes of albizziin can be distinguished based on cross-resistance to β-aspartic hydroxamic acid. Studies on asparagine synthetase have shown that resistance to albizziin may be associated with altered regulation of asparagine synthetase, structural mutations of the enzyme, and gene amplification.

trans-Caffeic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of trans-Caffeic acid (HY-121231). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. trans-Caffeic acid is a hydroxycinnamic acid widely distributed in coffee, propolis, and Lamiaceae herbs. trans-Caffeic acid exhibits significant antioxidant and photoprotective activities, and can be used in cancer-related research. trans-Caffeic acid readily undergoes reversible isomerization to form its cis-isomer in protic solvents, under high temperature, ultraviolet radiation, and stress conditions. Binding of trans-Caffeic acid with aluminum, lead, or copper ions attenuates isomerization and inhibits the formation of vinylcatechol, while complexation with lead or copper ions also promotes the formation of aesculetin.
