Spinacine ((S)-Spinacine) is a GABA uptake inhibitor. Spinacine enhances synaptic GABA effects via inhibition of gamma-aminobutyric acid uptake in cerebral cortex slices. Spinacine inhibits reflex responses of ventral roots in isolated spinal cord. Spinacine inhibits motor activity and reduces approaches to water dispensers in conflict situations. Spinacine raises pain sensitivity threshold via subarachnoidal injection.

Nε-(Carboxyethyl) lysine is an advanced glycation end product (AGE). Nε-(Carboxyethyl) lysine induces cross-linking between proteins, thereby affecting protein structure and function and causing protein denaturation. Nε-(Carboxyethyl) lysine binds to the RAGE receptor, affects cell signal transduction, and regulates processes such as inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. Nε-(Carboxyethyl) lysine affects glutamate transporters, reduces glutamate uptake and S100β protein secretion, influences neurotransmission in the nervous system, and exhibits diabetes-related neurotoxicity.

Carcainium chloride (QX 572) is a quaternary derivative of Lidocaine. Antitussive effect.

Marein has the neuroprotective effect due to a reduction of damage to mitochondria function and activation of the AMPK signal pathway. Marein improves insulin resistance induced by high glucose in HepG2 cells through CaMKK/AMPK/GLUT1 to promote glucose uptake, through IRS/Akt/GSK-3β to increase glycogen synthesis, and through Akt/FoxO1 to decrease gluconeogenesis. Marein is a HDAC inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 100 μM. Marein has beneficial antioxidative, antihypertensive, antihyperlipidemic and antidiabetic effects.

Supercinnamaldehyde is a potent transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) activator with an EC₅₀ value of 0.8 μM. Supercinnamaldehyde activates TRPA1 ion channels through covalent modification of cysteines.

Decanoic acid-d₅ is the deuterium labeled Decanoic acid. Decanoic acid, a component of medium chain triclycerides, is a brain-penetrant and non-competitive inhibitor of AMPA receptor. Decanoic acid has antiseizure effects.

Nepafenac (AHR 9434; AL 6515), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, is a topically administered COX-2 inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 0.12 μM. Nepafenac exhibits only weak COX-1 inhibitory activity (IC₅₀ = 64.3 μM). Nepafenac possesses unique prodrug properties, which enable it to rapidly convert into the active metabolite Amfenac (HY-17479) in the ocular tissues, thereby achieving high concentrations in the retina and choroid. Nepafenac reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting the activity of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes and thereby decreasing the production of prostaglandin PGE_₂. Nepafenac can delay the metastasis of uveal melanoma (UM) in rabbit eyes. Nepafenac is mainly used for pain management and inflammation control after ophthalmic surgeries.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tetrasodium is a kind of metal chelating agent (binds to bivalent and trivalent metal cations, including calcium). Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-hypercalcemia and anticoagulant activities. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium decreases the metal ion-catalyzed oxidative damage to proteins, and allows maintenance of reducing environment during protein purification. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium can alleviate the liver fibrosis. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium can be used for coronary artery disease and neural system disease research.

4-Hydroxy alprazolam is a metabolite of Alprazolam. Alprazolam is metabolized primarily by hepatic microsomal oxidation, yielding 4-Hydroxy alprazolam.

Palmitic acid-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Palmitic acid. Palmitic acid is a long-chain saturated fatty acid commonly found in both animals and plants. Palmitic acid can induce the expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) in in mouse granulosa cells.

Pelubiprofen is an orally active anti-inflammatory agent that inhibits COX enzyme activity (with IC₅₀ values of 10.66 and 2.88 μM for COX-1 and COX-2, respectively). Pelubiprofen has significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

1-Methyl-4-imidazoleacetic acid hydrochloride is a stable metabolite of Histamine (HY-B1204) that is produced by the oxidation of the primary metabolite, N-methylhistamine.

URB937 is an orally active and peripherally restricted FAAH inhibitor (IC₅₀=26.8 nM) and increases anandamide levels. URB937 fails to affect FAAH activity in the brain (not penetrate the blood-brain barrier).

MMK1 is a potent and selective human formyl peptide receptor like-1 (FPRL-1/FPR2) agonist with EC₅₀s of <2 nM and >10000 nM for FPRL-1 and FPR1, respectively. MMK1 is a potent chemotactic and calcium-mobilizing agonist. MMK1 potently activates phagocytic leukocytes and enhances Pertussis Toxin-sensitive production by human monocytes of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1b and IL-6. MMK1 exerts anxiolytic-like activity.

Aegeline, a main alkaloid, mimics the yeast SNARE protein Sec22p in suppressing α-synuclein and Bax toxicity in yeast. Aegeline restores growth of yeast cells suppressed by either αsyn or Bax. Antioxidant activity.

DQP-1105 is a potent noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist. DQP-1105 inhibits GluN2C- and GluN2D-containing receptors (IC₅₀=7.0 and 2.7 μM, respectively). The IC₅₀ values are at least 50-fold lower than those for recombinant GluN2A-, GluN2B-, GluA1-, or GluK2-containing receptors.
