L-Lactic acid ((S)-2-Hydroxypropanoic acid) is a natural product produced by the anaerobic glycolysis of pyruvic acid. L-Lactic acid is a sensitive indicator of tissue hypoxia and can be used as a hemodynamic indicator in critically ill patients.

Arachidonic acid (Immunocytophyte) is an unsaturated, essential fatty acid. It is found in animal and human fat as well as in the liver, brain, and glandular organs, and is a constituent of animal phosphatides. It is formed by the synthesis from dietary linoleic acid and is a precursor in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.

AFMK (Formyl-N-acetyl-5-methoxykynurenamine) is an active metabolite of Melatonin with antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity. AFMK is a modulator of apoptosis and improves the anti-tumor effect of Gemcitabine in PANC-1 cells.

5-Aminosalicylic Acid (5-ASA) is an anti-inflammatory agent, structurally related to the SALICYLATES, which is active in INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE. It is considered to be the active moiety of SULPHASALAZINE.

N1-Acetylspermine trihydrochloride is a monoacetylated derivative of spermine which is an endogenous polyamine. N1-Acetylspermine trihydrochloride can be used in studies about the uptake of the anticancer polyamine analog bleomycin-A5 by the human carnitine transporter SLC22A16.

Acetylcysteine (NAC) is an N-acetyl derivative of cysteine, a ROS inhibitor and mucolytic agent. Acetylcysteine induces apoptosis, can be used to reduce mucus thickness, and has anti-influenza viral activity.

Corticosterone (Kendall's compound B) is an adrenocortical steroid with salocorticoid and glucocorticoid activity that is orally active. Corticosterone is involved in the regulation of energy, immune responses, and stress responses in the body.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a naturally occurring hormone involved in various physiological processes, such as smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, vasodilation and constriction, blood pressure regulation, and inflammatory regulation.

Tauroursodeoxycholate (UR 906), also known as ursodoxicoltaurine, is a highly hydrophilic tertiary bile acid that is produced in humans at a low concentration. Tauroursodeoxycholate is the more hydrophilic form of ursodeoxycholic acid, which is the more abundant naturally produced bile acid in humans.Tauroursodeoxycholate is being investigated for use in several conditions such as Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC), insulin resistance, amyloidosis, Cystic Fibrosis, Cholestasis, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

3-Methyladenine (3-MA) is a PI3K inhibitor that selectively inhibits class IB PI3Kγ (IC50 = 60 μM) and class III VPS34 (IC50 = 25 μM). 3-Methyladenine inhibits autophagy.

Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is an essential omega-3 fatty acid prevalent in the brain and retina.

Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) is an arachidonate lipid mediator that regulates leukocyte recruitment and function at sites of inflammation.Leukotriene C4 is a mediator of bronchoconstriction, mucus hypersecretion, and eosinophilia, and has a mediating role in urticaria.

L-Leucyl-L-Leucine methyl ester hydrochloride (Leu-Leu-ome hydrochloride) is a dipeptide condensation product of L-leucine methyl ester produced by human monocytes or polymorphonuclear leukocytes. L-Leucyl-L-Leucine methyl ester hydrochloride selectively eliminates lymphocytes with cytotoxic potential and also induces lysosomal stress.

MDCG sodium (N-methyl-N-dithiocarboxyglucamine sodium) is a metal chelator that promotes biliary excretion of Cd.

Ebaresdax hydrochloride has analgesic activity and is used in the study of painful diabetic neuropathy caused by type I or type II diabetes.

Ursodeoxycholic acid sodium (Sodium Ursodeoxycholate) is a naturally occurring secondary bile acid with anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective activities. Ursodeoxycholic acid sodium acts as signaling molecule, exerting its effects by interacting with bile acid activated receptors,

DL-Borneol ((endo)-Borneol) is a small molecule extracted from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It is an orally bioadjuvant that improves drug delivery to the brain and is commonly used as an adjuvant ingredient in TCM for the treatment of cardio-cerebral vascular diseases.

L-Cysteine hydrochloride (L-Cysteine HCl) is a conditionally essential amino acid,L-Cysteine hydrochloride suppresses ghrelin and reduces appetite in rodents and humans

Xanthine (Isoxanthine) is a product on the pathway of purine degradation. Xanthine is subsequently converted to uric acid by the action of the Xanthine oxidase enzyme. Xanthine is found in most body tissues and fluids in various organisms. Biologically Xanthine is produced from guanine by cypin (guanine deaminase). Furthermore, Xanthines act as antagonists for adenosine receptors, with selectivity depending on whether there are substitution of alkyl groups.
