3-Phenylbutyric acid undergoes metabolism through initial oxidation processes involving both its benzene ring and side chain. It serves as an effective agent for the isolation of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PB1 from compost soil.

Corydine is the adrenolytic and weak cholinergic agent, it shows antimicrobial, and antineoplastic activities. Corydine shows irritant and respiratory stimulant and CNS depressant activities. Injected intravenously in rabbits corydine produced an initial

12-oxo Leukotriene B4 (12-Oxo-LTB4) is a potent pro-inflammatory lipid mediator classified as a dihydroxy fatty acid that is enzymatically derived from arachidonic acid metabolism via the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway, and it promotes a diverse array of leukocyte functional responses including cellular aggregation, stimulation of transmembrane ion fluxes, enhancement of lysosomal enzyme release, superoxide anion generation, chemotaxis, and chemokinesis; 12-oxo Leukotriene B4 is an initial oxidative metabolite formed from Leukotriene B4 via the LTB4 12-hydroxydehydrogenase pathway, which undergoes rapid enzymatic conversion first to 10,11-dihydro-12-oxo-LTB4 followed by reduction of the 12-oxo group to yield 10,11-dihydro-LTB4, and this metabolite exhibits significantly reduced biological potency, being approximately 70-fold less potent than LTB4 in stimulating Ca2+ mobilization in human neutrophils (EC50 = 33 nM vs. 0.46 nM) and also markedly less effective at stimulating neutrophil migration (EC50 = 170 nM vs. 2.7 nM).

Tellimagrandin II (Eugeniin) is the initial intermediate in the 4 C 1 -glucose derived series of ellagitannins. Additionally, it possesses the ability to inhibit antibiotic resistance exhibited by drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Granaticin A inhibits the initial stages of RNA biosynthesis and exhibits activity against Gram-positive bacteria, mycobacteria (weak), and Trichomonas vaginalis, as well as tumor cells.

Granaticin B inhibits the initial phase of RNA biosynthesis and exhibits activity against Gram-positive bacteria, mycobacteria (weak), and Trichomonas vaginalis, along with the ability to suppress tumor cells.

Aflatrem is a tremorgenic mycotoxin with acute neurotoxic effects, a single low dose of aflatrem is able to induce degeneration of neuronal processes in hippocampal neurotransmitter systems. Aflatrem potentiates the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-induced

Fructose-leucine (Fru-Leu) is an Amadori compound that can be detected in tobacco and serves as an aroma precursor formed during the initial stages of the Maillard reaction.
