8-Prenylkaempferol is an effective agent for attenuating pro-inflammatory NO induction, it may be an anti-inflammatory agent for suppressing influenza A virus-induced RANTES production acts by blocking PI3K-mediated transcriptional activation of NF-κB and

Desoxo-narchinol A exhibits protective effects against LPS-induced endotoxin shock and inflammation through p38 deactivation, it shows inhibitory activity against LPS-induced NO production. Desoxo-narchinol A shows cytotoxic activity against P-388 cells.

Salicortin is a phenolic glycoside isolated from many plants such as Populus and Salix species, has anti-adipogenic, anti-amnesic, and immune-modulatory activity.

Manassantin B is a potent inhibitor of NF-κB activation by the suppression of transciptional activity of RelA/p65 subunit of NF-κB. It also possesses anti-EBV lytic replication activity. Manassantin B inhibits interleukin-6-induced signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 activation in Hep3B cells, it has potential as a potent anti-inflammatory drug for use in pathological processes such as sepsis or acute lung injury. Manassantin B exerts antifibrotic activity in HSC-T6 cells, in part, via inhibition of cell proliferation and decrease of collagen production.

Ethacrynic acid (Edecrin) is a nonsulfonamide loop diuretic that inhibits the activity of the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter NKCC2 in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. It also inhibits glutathione S-transferase and Wnt signalling, producing cytotoxicity in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells and other tumour cells.
