MK-3984 is a selective androgen receptor modulator, used in the study of conditions caused by androgen deficiency.

Rhizoferrin is a novel iron carrier from the fungus Rhizopus microsporus var. rhizopodiformis for the study of iron-deficiency-induced chlorosis in plants.

Hepcidin antagonist-1 is an iron-modulating antagonist.Hepcidin antagonist-1 can be used to study metabolic disorders such as iron-deficiency diseases and anemia.

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is a vitamin B9 that is essential for the synthesis of DNA RNA and for the production and maintenance of new cells. Folic acid deficiency can lead to anemia, neural tube closure defects, tumors, aging, and other diseases.

Niacinamide is an important compound functioning as a component of the coenzyme NAD. Its primary significance is in the prevention and or cure of blacktongue and PELLAGRA. Most animals cannot manufacture this compound in amounts sufficient to prevent nutr

Cyanocobalamin is a cobalt-containing coordination compound generated by intestinal microbes and a natural water-soluble vitamin of the B-complex family that must combine with Intrinsic Factor for absorption by the intestine. Cyanocobalamin is necessary for hematopoiesis, neural metabolism, DNA, and RNA production, and carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. B12 improves iron functions in the metabolic cycle and assists folic acid in choline synthesis. B12 metabolism is interconnected with that of folic acid. Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) deficiency causes pernicious anemia, megaloblastic anemia, and neurologic lesions.

2'-Deoxyinosine (Guanine deoxyriboside) inhibits the growth of human colon-carcinoma cell lines and is associated with purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency.

5'-Guanylic acid (5'-guanosine monophosphate) is implicated in several metabolic disorders, including the AICA-ribosiduria pathway, adenosine deaminase deficiency, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency (APRT), and the 2-hydroxyglutric aciduria pathway.

Zinc sulfate heptahydrate is a dietary supplement used for zinc deficiency and to prevent the condition in those at high risk.

p-Phenylenediamine, N,N'-diphenyl- (NSC-761) is a bioactive chemical. It has been used to prevent vitamin E deficiency in lambs.

Maleuric acid (N-Carbamoylmaleamic acid) is anti-mitotic and can be used in biological research in conjunction with radioautography.Maleuric acid is used to improve the growth and fertility of plants and animals as well as to treat whey acid deficiency.

Pyridoxal phosphate (Vitamin B6 phosphate) is the active form of vitamin B6 and a coenzyme for many pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes. PLP is involved in numerous enzymatic transamination, decarboxylation and deamination reactions; it is necessary for the synthesis of amino acids and amino acid metabolites, and for the synthesis and or catabolism of certain neurotransmitters, including the conversion of glutamate into gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and levodopa into dopamine. PLP can be used as a dietary supplement in cases of vitamin B6 deficiency. Reduced levels of PLP in the brain can cause neurological dysfunction.

L-Leucine ((S)-Leucine) is one of nine essential amino acids in humans (provided by food), L-Leucine is important for protein synthesis and many metabolic functions. L-Leucine contributes to regulation of blood-sugar levels; growth and repair of muscle and bone tissue; growth hormone production; and wound healing. L-Leucine also prevents breakdown of muscle proteins after trauma or severe stress and may be beneficial for individuals with phenylketonuria. L-Leucine is available in many foods and deficiency is rare.

Mitapivat (PKR-IN-1), also known as PKM2 activator 1020 is a PKM2 activator (pyruvate kinase activator) for the treatment of pyruvate kinase deficiency.

Magnesium glycinate (magnesium 2-aminoacetate) is a supplement that boost magnesium levels in people with a deficiency of the mineral. Magnesium is a vital nutrient for regulating many body processes, including muscle and nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure. This mineral also supports the making of protein, bone, and DNA.

Fursultiamine (Alinamin F) is a disulfide derivative of thiamine, or an allithiamine. It has potential uses in the treatment of vitamin B1 deficiency.

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.

Methylglutaric acid is a leucine metabolite. A large amount of methylglutaric acid is identified in urine of patients with deficiency of 3-methylglutaconyl coenzyme A hydratase (PMID 6181239 ). Methylglutaric acid is also found to be associated with 3-hyd

Pyruvic acid (Acetylformic acid) is an intermediate compound in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. In thiamine deficiency, its oxidation is retarded and it accumulates in the tissues, especially in nervous structures.
