Dehydroglyasperin D exhibits anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, antioxidant and anti-aldose reductase effects, it inhibits the proliferation of HT-29 human colorectal cancer cells through direct interaction with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; it also mediates suppression of both COX-2 expression and the MLK3 signalling pathway through direct binding and inhibition of MLK3. Dehydroglyasperin D shows strong ferric reducing activities and effectively scavenged DPPH, ABTS(+), and singlet oxygen radicals.

3-O-Acetyl-16α-hydroxydehydrotrametenolic acid (3-O-Acetyl-16 alpha-hydroxydehydrotrametenolic acid) exhibits anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting NO production and iNOS expression in LPS-stimulated Raw264.7 cells.

Euscaphic acid has anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities, it inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory responses by interference with the clustering of TRAF6 with IRAK1 and TAK1, resulting in blocking the activation of IKK and MAPKs signal transduction

3-O-Acetyl-α-boswellic acid (α-Boswellic acid acetate) exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity.

Afzelin (Kaempferol-3-O-rhamnoside) exhibits several cellular activities such as DNA-protective, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and UV-absorbing properties, potentially protecting human skin from UVB-induced damage through a combination of UV-absorbing and cellular actions. Afzelin mitigates mitochondrial damage, promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, and reduces levels of mitophagy-related proteins, parkin and PTEN-induced putative kinase 1.

ExcisaninA may be a potent inhibitor of AKT signaling pathway in tumor cells, it can inhibit invasion by suppressing MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression, it may be a potential anti-metastatic chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of breast cancer. Excisanin A shows comparable inhibitory effects on the LPS-induced production of NO and PGE2, and activation of NF-kappaB without affecting cell viability.Excisanin A induces apoptosis in colon cancer cell line SW620 as determined by Annexin V staining, the cleavage of caspase-3 and the proteolytic degradation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP).

Skullcapflavone I has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic potential, it can significantly inhibit LPS stimulated NO and PGE(2) release in J774A.1 macrophages and inhibit LPS induced IL-6 production in a concentration dependent manner. Skullcapflavone I se
