Alkannin is a hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone. Alkannin， Found in Alkanna tinctoria as a food coloring agent. Alkannin has anti-cancer activity, inhibits cell cycle, and induces cell apoptosis.Alkannin improves liver inflammation in the Rho kinase pathway.

1-Octacosanol is an ultra-long-chain primary fatty alcohol that is octacosane in which a hydrogen attached to one of the terminal carbons is replaced by a hydroxy group. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is an ultra-long-chain primary fatty alcohol and a fatty alcohol 28:0. It derives from a hydride of an octacosane. 1-Octacosanol is reported to possess cholesterol-lowering effects, antiaggregatory properties, cytoprotective use, and ergogenic properties, it is used as a nutritional supplement. 1-Octacosanol is a straight chain aliphatic 28 carbon fatty alcohol and the main component of cholesterol lowering agent docosanol. 1-Octacosanol has various activities such as anti fatigue, anti angiogenesis, cholesterol lowering, and insecticidal.

Alpha-Solanine is a glycoalkaloid poison found in species of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), such as the potato (Solanum tuberosum). It is a trisccharide derivative of solanidine [(22beta)-solanid-5-en-3beta-ol]. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, a phytotoxin, an apoptosis inducer and a plant metabolite. It is a glycoalkaloid, an organic heterohexacyclic compound, a steroid saponin and a trisaccharide derivative. It is functionally related to a solanidine. Alpha-Solanine alters antioxidative enzyme activities and MDA and PCO concentrations and GST activity in fat body and midgut. Alpha-Solanine has proliferation-inhibiting and apoptosis-promoting effect on multiple cancer cells, such as clone, liver, melanoma cancer cells.

The oxygenated sterols( 26-oxygenosterols ganoderol A, ganoderol B, ganoderal A, and ganoderic acid Y) from G. lucidum can inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis via conversion of acetate or mevalonate as a precursor of cholesterol.

Raddeanoside 20 can slightly suppress the superoxide generation induced by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) in a concentration dependent manner.
