Sinapinic Acid (Synapoic acid) protects the rat liver from CCl4-induced inflammation, most likely by acting as a free radical scavenger and modulator of NF-κB p65 activation and proinflammatory cytokine expression. Sinapic acid with antioxidant role protects cardiac cells and its functions from I/R induced oxidative stress. Sinapic acid is a potentially useful agent for the protection against liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Sinapic acid prevents the alterations in the levels of lipids and lipoproteins by virtue of its anti-lipidaemic effect in isoproterenol induced myocardial infarcted rats. Sinapic acid ameliorates hyperglycemia through PLC-PKC signals to enhance the glucose utilization in diabetic rats.

L-(+)-Arabinose selectively inhibits intestinal sucrase in a non-competitive manner, thereby preventing glucose elevation induced by sucrose intake.

1-Undecanol (1-Hendecanol) is a natural product in many foods such as fruits, butter, eggs and cooked pork, is used as a flavoring ingredient.

D-mannoheptose is the main non-structural carbohydrate in avocado. D-mannoheptose is a specific inhibitor of D-glucose phosphorylation. D-mannoheptose can prevent the release of insulin and the utilization of carbohydrates in rats.

Ergosta-4,6,8(14),22-tetraen-3-one exhibits cytotoxic activity against human gastric cancer cells and can induce G2 M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells. These findings could facilitate the further use of various medicinal fungi in cancer treatment.

D-Thyroxine (Dextroxin) could lower cholesterol and also increases hepatic lipase which in turn improves utilization of triglycerides, leading to improve apolipoprotein E cholesterol particles.

Moracin treatment can inhibit the double 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) treatment-induced morphological changes reflecting inflammatory response, including leucocyte infiltration, hyperplasia and cell proliferation; moracin treatment furthermo

Goitrin ((S)-Goitrin), formed through glucosinolate-myrosinase reactions, serves as a potent inhibitor of thyroid peroxidase, thereby hindering the thyroid's utilization of iodine. Additionally, it demonstrates anti-influenza virus (H1N1) activity.

Moracin C and moracin D, new phytoalexins from diseased mulberry, are antifungal compounds. Moracin may be protective influence in tumor promotion, utilization of Moracin may open a new avenue in the treatment of tumerigenesis.

Epicatechin pentaacetate is a phenolic compound from the V. mullaha fruit extracts, the utilization of V. mullaha fruit as functional food with prospective pharmaceutical, nutraceuticals and cosmeceutical properties.
