Methyl 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate (Protocatechuic acid methyl ester), a key metabolite of antioxidant polyphenols in green tea, exhibits significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

L-Cystine dihydrochloride is an Nrf2 inducer with whitening and anti-dark spot effects.L-Cystine dihydrochloride has cytoprotective effects in cells, and is often added to various fungal cultures as a carbon source.

Pyridoxine hydrochloride (Vitamin B6) is the 4-methanol form of vitaminB6 which is converted to pyridoxal phosphate which is a coenzyme for synthesis of amino acids, neurotransmitters (serotonin, norepinephrine), sphingolipids, aminolevulinic acid.

Luteolin (Luteolol) belongs to the flavonoid group of natural products and is a Nrf2 inhibitor, PDE inhibitor. Luteolin has a wide range of biological activities including antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiallergic, and procoagulant.

Ezetimibe (SCH 58235) is a dietary cholesterol absorption inhibitor that exerts its physiologic effect by decreasing cholesterol absorption.

Oltipraz (RP 35972) is a synthetic dithiolethione with potential chemopreventive and anti-angiogenic properties. Oltipraz induces phase II detoxification enzymes, such as glutathione S transferase (GST) and NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). The induction of detoxification enzymes enhances the detoxification of certain cancer-causing agents, thereby enhancing their elimination and preventing carcinogen-induced DNA damages. Although the exact mechanism through which the anti-angiogenesis effect remains to be fully elucidated, oltipraz maybe able to modulate the expression of a number of angiogenic factors, thereby blocking the sustained and focal neovascularization in multiple tumor cell types.

Mangiferin (Hedysarid) is used for antidiabetes. Extracted from Mangifera indica L.

Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) is the 4-methanol form of vitamin B6 and is converted to pyridoxal 5-phosphate in the body. Although pyridoxine and vitamin B6 are still frequently used as synonyms, especially by medical researchers, this practice is erroneous and sometimes misleading.
