Adhesamine, a dumbbell-shaped molecule, plays a crucial role in activating the MAPK/FAK pathway, thus promoting mammalian cell adhesion and growth. Additionally, it accelerates the differentiation and enhances the survival of mice hippocampal neurons in primary culture.

EM 163 is a TIR-TIR interaction inhibitor, which is a TIR (Toll/interleukin-1 receptor) structural domain mimic of the MyD88 protein. EM 163 targets the TIR structural domain in the IL-1 receptor and blocks the interaction with MyD88. EM 163 inhibits the production of inflammatory cytokines in vivo caused by staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB). EM 163 protects mice from SEB shock-induced death. In rat hippocampal neurons in vitro, EM 163 blocked the activation of p38 and the inhibitory effect of IL-1β on chemically induced long-term potentiation (LTP)-triggered protein synthesis.
