Ketoprofen (RP-19583) is a propionic acid derivative and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase I and II, decreasing the formation of prostaglandin and thromboxane precursors. This reduction in prostaglandin synthesis, mediated by prostaglandin synthase, is responsible for its therapeutic effects. Additionally, Ketoprofen decreases thromboxane A2 formation via thromboxane synthase, inhibiting platelet aggregation.

Berberine has antineoplastic effects, including breast cancer, leukemia, melanoma, epidermoid carcinoma, hepatoma, pancreatic cancer, oral carcinoma, tongue carcinoma, glioblastoma, prostate carcinoma and gastric carcinoma, etc.

4"-C18 EGCG is an effective inhibitor of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, with IC50 values of 3.74 μM and 0.81 μM respectively. It inhibits carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, and demonstrates anti-diabetic activity. Additionally, 4"-C18 EGCG downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines and exhibits cytotoxicity at 50 μM in primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), and non-cancerous cell lines 3T3-L1 and HEK 293.

4''-C18 EGCG is an effective inhibitor of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, with IC50 values of 3.74 and 0.81 μM, respectively. This compound suppresses carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes, reduces oxidative stress and inflammation, and exhibits anti-diabetic activity. Moreover, 4''-C18 EGCG downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines and demonstrates cytotoxicity at 50 μM against primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), as well as non-cancerous cell lines 3T3-L1 and HEK 293.

Wnt/β-catenin activator 1 (Compound 5m) is an orally active activator of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. It induces cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase, inhibits early proliferation of adipocytes, and suppresses adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 cells with an IC50 of 330 nM. In a high-fat diet-fed Syrian golden hamster model, Wnt/β-catenin activator 1 exhibits anti-adipogenic and anti-dyslipidemic activities.

Galegine hemisulfate, a guanidine derivative, aids in weight reduction in mice. It activates AMPK in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, L6 myotubes, H4IIE rat hepatoma cells, and HEK293 human renal cell lines. Galegine hemisulfate also exhibits antibacterial activity, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 4 mg/L against Staphylococcus aureus strains.

Galegine hydrochloride, a guanidine derivative derived from G. officinalis, plays a role in inducing weight loss in mice and has contributed to the development of biguanides, including metformin and phenformin. This compound stimulates AMPK activation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, L6 myotubes, H4IIE rat hepatoma, and HEK293 human kidney cell lines. Additionally, galegine hydrochloride exhibits antibacterial properties, particularly demonstrating a minimum inhibitory concentration of 4 mg/L against Staphylococcus aureus strains[1][2].

MD001 is a dual agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) and PPARγ.1 It binds to PPARα and PPARγ (Kds = 9.55 and 0.14 μM, respectively) but does not bind to PPARβ/δ at concentrations up to 500 μM. It increases transcriptional activity of PPARα and PPARγ in a cell-based luciferase reporter assay when used at a concentration of 10 μM. MD001 (10 μM) increases expression of PPARα, PPARγ, and retinoid X receptor (RXR), as well as PPARα and PPARγ target genes, in HepG2 cells. It increases glucose consumption as well as expression of GLUT2 and GLUT4 in HepG2 and 3T3-L1 cells, respectively, in a concentration-dependent manner. MD001 (20 mg/kg) decreases levels of glucose, insulin, free fatty acids, triglycerides, LDL, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in blood and reduces the size and number of hepatic lipid droplets in diabetic db/db mice.References1.

Ternatin is a cyclic heptapeptide first isolated from the mushroom C. versicolor that has been shown to have cytotoxic and anti-adipogenic effects in vitro. It inhibits adipogenesis with an IC50 value of 27 nM and becomes cytotoxic to 3T3-L1 mouse adipocytes at 10-fold higher concentrations. Ternatin is reported to inhibit HCT116 cell proliferation with an IC50 value of 71 nM. Note that this metabolite should not be confused with the plant flavonoid of the same name.
