Tirucallol is an antiinflammatory agent isolated from Euphorbia lactea.Tirucallol exerts a topical anti-inflammatory effect in vivo, via a mechanism of action related to the neutrophil migration.

Kaurenoic acid (kaurenoate) has anti-inflammatory potential in acetic acid-induced colitis, decreases in MDA level. Kaurenoic acid exerts a uterine relaxant effect acting principally through calcium blockade and in part, by the opening of ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Kaurenoic acid exhibits an analgesic effect in a consistent manner and that its mechanisms involve the inhibition of cytokine production and activation of the NO-cyclic GMP-protein kinase G-ATP-sensitive potassium channel signaling pathway. Kaurenoic acid derivatives have an antimicrobial activity of substituted on carbon-15 at concentrations greater than or equal to 250 μg/ml. Kaurenoic acid has inhibitory effects on the LPS-induced inflammatory response in RAW264.7 macrophages.

Octyl Gallate shows antimicrobial activity against H. pylori, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 125 ug/mL. 4. Combination therapy with octyl gallate and ferulic acid improves cognition and neurodegeneration in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.5. Octyl Gallate is a potential anticancer agent, it exhibited decreased MCF-7 & MDA-MB-231 survival and induced apoptosis, with IC50 value of 40 uM. 6. Octyl gallate (Octyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate) has antiviral activity, it shows an inhibitory effect on the growth of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in HEp-2 or Vero cells. 7. Octyl gallate shows antifungal activity against Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC7754 and Zygosaccharomyces bailii ATCC 60483.

Ferulamide (4-Hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamide), a Ferulic acid derivative, shows potent inhibitory activity against arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation.
