Resveratrol (SRT 501) is a polyphenolic natural product, a plant antitoxin with antioxidant and chemopreventive activities. Resveratrol has a wide range of targets including COX, SIRT, LOC, etc. Resveratrol induces autophagy and apoptosis.

Juglone (Regianin) is a natural naphthoquinone found in the black walnut (J. nigra) and other plants in the Juglandaceae family. Juglone also irreversibly inhibits peptidyl-prolyl cis trans isomerases of the parvulin family, including human Pin1, yeast Ess1 Ptf1, and E. coli parvulin (Ki = 55.9 nM). Juglone also blocks transcription by RNA polymerases I, II, and III (IC50s = 2-7 μM) and attenuates kidney fibrosis in rats treated with unilateral ureteral obstruction, both through Pin1-independent mechanisms.

Rifamycin sodium (Rifamycin sodium salt) salt is an antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. It is effective against Gram-positive bacteria.

Fidaxomicin (Tiacumicin B) is a semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic used to treat Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea in adults. Fidaxomicin has minimal systemic absorption and has not been linked to serum enzyme elevations during therapy or to instances of clinically apparent, acute liver injury.

Maslinic acid (Crategolic acid) is a DNA polymerase B inhibitor.

Pseudouridimycin is a C-nucleoside analogue. Pseudouridimycin is an antibiotic and is a selective bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) inhibitor. It is effective against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

Cynaroside (Luteolin 7-O-Glucoside) is a flavone, a flavonoid-like chemical compound. It has an anti-oxidant effect, inhibiting lipid and protein oxidation.

Ferrocin A is a lipopeptide compound that targets the SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (nsp12). It binds stably to nsp12 and, by chelating iron, reduces the concentration of free iron in the environment. This action inhibits bacterial growth by preventing the acquisition of essential metal cations. As an iron-chelating antiviral agent, Ferrocin A is applicable for research in COVID-19 and bacterial infections.
