Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside (EH-201) is a low MW inducer of erythropoietin. Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside induces expression of erythropoietin, PPAR-γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) and haemoglobin in astrocytes and PC12 neuronal-like cells. In vivo, Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside treatment restores memory impairment, as assessed by the passive avoidance test, in SD, Aβ and KA mouse models. In the hippocampus of mice given Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside in their diet, levels of erythropoietin, PGC-1α and haemoglobin were increased. Treatment with Tetrahydroxystilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside might be a therapeutic strategy for memory impairment in neurodegenerative disease, physiological ageing or traumatic brain injury.

Hemin (Hemin chloride) is a chlorinated iron-containing porphyrin, a heme oxygenase (HO)-1 inducer. Hemin has therapeutic activity in porphyrias by reducing heme deficiency in patients, thereby inhibiting δ-aminolevulinic acid synthetase activity through biochemical feedback.

Terpinen-4-ol (4-Carvomenthenol) is a natural compound derived from Pimpinella yunnanensis.

Jasplakinolide(Jaspamide), a naturally occurring cyclic peptide from marine sponges, is a potent inducer of actin polymerization.Jasplakinolide exhibits antifungal and antitumor activity and stabilizes pre-existing actin filaments. Jasplakinolide competitively binds to F-actin with the ghost pen cyclic peptide and has a Kd value of 15 nM for F-actin.

Ginsenoside F2 has antiproliferative activity against breast cancer stem cells (CSCs). It induces apoptosis in breast CSCs by activating the intrinsic apoptotic pathway and mitochondrial dysfunction.
