Gemcitabine elaidate (CP-4126), is a lipophilic, unsaturated fatty acid ester derivative of gemcitabine (dFdC), an antimetabolite deoxynucleoside analogue, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon hydrolysis intracellularly by esterases, the prodrug gemcitabine is converted into the active metabolites difluorodeoxycytidine di- and tri-phosphate (dFdCDP and dFdCTP) by deoxycytidine kinase. dFdCDP inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, thereby decreasing the deoxynucleotide pool available for DNA synthesis; dFdCTP is incorporated into DNA, resulting in DNA strand termination and apoptosis.

Wogonoside (Wogonin 7-O-glucuronide) acts as a positive allosteric modulator of the benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptor.

Ivacaftor (VX-770) (VX-770) is a potentiator of CFTR targeting G551D-CFTR (EC50: 100 nM) and F508del-CFTR (EC50: 25 nM) in Fisher rat thyroid cells, respectively.

1. Oxyresveratro can inhibit tyrosinase activity. 2. Oxyresveratro is useful to trauma models, as toxicity to glia could be beneficial by inhibiting reactive gliosis. 3. Oxyresveratrol (trans-Oxyresveratrol) has antioxidant activity, can reduce neuronal oxidative damage and protect hepatocytes against oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, which may be associated with activation of Nrf2.

16-Hydroxycleroda-3,13-dien-15,16-olide, and prodigiosin are presented as candidates for autophagy inducers that can trigger cell death in a supplement or alternative medicine for cancer therapy. 16-Hydroxycleroda-3,13-dien-15,16-olide regulates the expre
