Azaribine is used to study Zika virus (ZIKV) infections, psoriasis and mycosis fungoides.

α-(difluoromethyl)-DL-Arginine (RMI 71897) is an enzyma-activated, irreversible inhibitor of arginine decarboxylase for E. coli (Ki = 800 μM), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. At 0.01 mM, it has been shown to prevent osmotic stress-induced increases in arginine decarboxylase activity and putrescine synthesis in oat leaf cells. When combined with a variety of polyamine analogues, α-(difluoromethyl)-DL-Arginine inhibited the growth of Trypanosoma Crui in mammalian host cells at a minimum concentration of 10 mM and prevented the growth of Trypanosoma Crui in T-cell receptor alpha-deficient mouse models.

Sardomozide dihydrochloride (CGP 48664 dihydrochloride) is an inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC, IC50 = 5 nM).

4-Hydroxyphenylacetamide, HpdBCA decarboxylase inhibitor, is used as a whitening ingredient in cosmetics and skin care products. It can be used in the synthesis of aminoacil.

Methyldopa (MK-351), an alpha-adrenergic agonist (selective for α2-adrenergic receptors) psychoactive medicine, is served as an antihypertensive or sympatholytic.

L-DOPA (Levodopa) is an orally active metabolic precursor of the neurotransmitter dopamine. It can cross the blood-brain barrier and be converted into dopamine in the brain. L-DOPA exhibits anti-hyperalgesic effects and holds potential in Parkinson’s disease research, and it can also be used to induce Parkinson’s disease models.

Benserazide hydrochloride (Ro 4-4602) is a peripherally-acting L-amino acid decarboxylase (AAAD) or DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor.

Isotretinoin (13-cis-Retinoic acid) binds to and activates nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), which act as transcription factors that promote cell differentiation and apoptosis. This naturally occurring retinoic acid has potential antineoplastic activity, exhibits immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory responses, and inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, thereby decreasing polyamine synthesis and keratinization.

5-Hydroxytryptophan (NSC-92523) is a metabolite of tryptophan and a direct precursor of serotonin. It is a substrate of aromatic amino acid decarboxylase and can be used to induce depression models.

L-Allylglycine is an amino acid derivative that reduces glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity by 60% when administered at a dose of 39.8 μmol/g per hour ex vivo in mouse brain preparations. L-Allylglycine (1.2 mmol/kg, i.p.) induces convulsions and decreases GABA concentration throughout the cerebellum, pons, medulla, striatum, cortex, and hippocampus in mice. Chronic administration (3.2 μg/0.5 μl per hour for 13 days) of L-allylglycine in rats increases locomotor activity in an open field test and impairs attention in the 5-choice serial reaction time task (5CSRTT). In vitro, L-allylglycine inhibits GAD only when used at high concentrations (1-80 mM). The more potent in vivo activity can be attributed to metabolic conversion of L-allylglycine to 2-keto-4-pentanoic acid, a more potent convulsant and GAD inhibitor.

Suberic acid (1,8-Octanedioic acid) is present in the urine of patients with fatty acid oxidation disorders. A metabolic breakdown product derived from oleic acid. Elevated levels of this unstaruated dicarboxylic acid are found in individuals with medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCAD). Suberic acid is also associated with carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency, malonyl-Coa decarboxylase deficiency.
