MK-886 (L 663536) is an inhibitor of leukotriene biosynthesis, acting by inhibiting the 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP), and serves as a moderately potent PPARα antagonist.

Deoxythymidine-5'-triphosphate trisodium (Deoxythymidine-5'-triphosphate (dTTP) trisodium salt) is one of the four natural deoxynucleotides. It is used for the biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid by DNA polymerase and reverse transcriptase.

Eleutheroside B1 mediates its anti-influenza activity through POLR2A and N-glycosylation. Eleutheroside B1 inhibits the mRNA expression of several chemokine genes and the influenza nucleoprotein (NP) gene, and exhibits low cytotoxicity. Antiviral and anti

Triparanol (NSC-65345) interferes with posttranslational modification of Hedgehog signaling molecules as well as the sterol sensing domain of its receptor PTCH1, leading to down-regulation of Hedgehog signaling. Triparanol suppresses human tumor growth and is an antilipemic agent with high ophthalmic toxicity.

Menthofuran is a natural product.

Diallyl disulfide has antitumor effect, the effect can be enhanced by miR-200b and miR-22.

Lapaquistat is a cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitor and is the active metabolite of TAK-475. Lapaquistat can reduce statin-induced myotoxicity in lipid-lowering therapy.

Traumatic Acid (Dodec-2-Enedioic Acid) is a product of the hydroperoxide lyase pathway in plants. Potential as a wound healing agent that stimulates cell division near a wound site to form a protective callus.

Brassinazole is a selective inhibitor of triazole-type steroid (BR) biosynthesis.Brassinazole can be used to modulate the oleuropein steroid (BR) signaling pathway, which is used to regulate plant xylem growth and development.

Tryptanthrin is a natural DNA gyrase inhibitor.

7-Ketocholesterol is a metabolite of Cholesterol

AY 9944 is a specific cholesterol biosynthesis inhibitor that targets the 7-dehydrocholesterol Δ7-reductase (DHCR7) enzyme (IC50=13 nM). At high doses, AY 9944 also inhibits sterol Δ7-Δ8 isomerase in cultured embryos, leading to the accumulation of cholest-8-en-3β-ol[1][2][3]. Additionally, AY 9944 causes hypocholesterolemia and accumulation of 7DHC.

D-Cycloserine (RO-1-9213) is a broad spectrum antibiotic used as a second line agent for treatment of drug resistant tuberculosis, always in combination with other antituberculosis agents.

Nicosulfuron (Milagro) is a pesticide that works by inhibiting the acetolactate synthase enzyme. Nicosulfuron has not been found to induce mutagenic or carcinogenic effects. Nicosulfuron is a herbicide to protect corn crops from weeds.

Prochloraz (Prelude) is a broad-spectrum contact imidazole fungicide. Prochloraz inhibits human placental microsomal aromatase in vitro (IC50 = 40 nM). Prochloraz also acts as an estrogen receptor (IC50s = 25 μM) and androgen receptor (IC50 = 4 μM) antagonist, and activates aryl hydrocarbon receptors (EC50 = 1 μM).

Epoxiconazole (BAS-480F) is a 14-α demethylase inhibitor. It inhibits ergosterol synthesis and fungal cell wall formation.

Velutin shows the strongest inhibitory effect in NF-κB activation and exhibits the greatest effects in blocking the degradation of inhibitor of NF-κB as well as in inhibiting mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 and JNK phosphorylation. Velutin has anti-inflammatory property. Velutin exhibits the greatest potency among all flavones which reduce TNF-α and IL-6 production.

Fenhexamid (Elevate), a sterol biosynthesis inhibitor, shows antifungal activity against the plant pathogenic fungus. Fenhexamid is used for agriculture and is present in measurable amounts in fruits and vegetables.

Fenpropidin (Ro-12-3049), a fungicide, is a specific inhibitor of sterol 14-reductase and biosynthesis.
