7α-Hydroxycholesterol is a cholesterol oxide and can serve as a biomarker for oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation. 7α-Hydroxycholesterol has cytotoxic and pro-inflammatory activities. 7α-Hydroxycholesterol can also inhibit sterol synthesis and reduce the activity of HMG-CoA reductase. 7α-Hydroxycholesterol can be used in the research of diseases such as diabetes and atherosclerosis.

Teplizumab (MGA-031) is a Fc receptor non-binding anti-human CD3 monoclonal antibody. Teplizumab reduces the loss of beta-cell function. Teplizumab can be used in the research of type 1 diabetes.

Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol), drived from plant sources or dietary supplements, could be used as supplement of Vitamin D.

Acetazolamide sodium is a carbonic anhydrase (CA) IX inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 30 nM for hCA IX. Acetazolamide sodium has diuretic, antihypertensive and anti-gonococcal activities.

Anti-Mouse IL-10R/CD210 Antibody (1B1.3A) is a rat-derived IgG1 κ type antibody inhibitor, targeting to mouse IL-10R/CD210. Anti-Mouse IL-10R/CD210 Antibody (1B1.3A) blocks IL-10R signaling. Anti-Mouse IL-10R/CD210 Antibody (1B1.3A) can be used for the researches of cancer, infection and metabolic disease, such as diabetes and malaria.

Sitagliptin (MK-0431) phosphate monohydrate is an orally active and highly selective DPP4 inhibitor with an IC₅₀ value of 19 nM. Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate blocks the degradation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) by competing inhibition mechanism (Kᵢ = 1 nM), thereby increasing the level of active incretin. Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate can also directly stimulate the secretion of GLP-1 by intestinal L cells by activating the cAMP/PKA and ERK1/2 pathways, and this effect is independent of DPP-4. Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate shows protective effects on pancreatic islet grafts in 1-type diabetes models. Sitagliptin phosphate monohydrate can be used for the study of 1-type and 2-type diabetes.
