Meranzin exhibits strong anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. Meranzin hydrate can induce similar effect to Fructus Aurantii on intestinal motility and it was, at least in part, mediated by stimulation of H1 histamine receptors.

Cytisine is an organic heterotricyclic compound that is the toxic principle in Laburnum seeds and is found in many members of the Fabaceae (legume, pea or bean) family. An acetylcholine agonist, it is widely used throughout Eastern Europe as an aid to giving up smoking. It has a role as a phytotoxin, a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist and a plant metabolite. It is an alkaloid, a lactam, an organic heterotricyclic compound, a bridged compound and a secondary amino compound. Cytisine is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, has been widely used for central nervous system (CNS) diseases treatment. It is a partial agonist at alpha4/beta2 nAChRs, and a full agonist at alpha3/beta4 and alpha7 nAChRs, has antidepressant-like properties in several rodent models of antidepressant efficacy.

5-hydroxymethyl-2-furoic acid is a member of the class of furoic acids that is 2-furoic acid substituted at position 5 by a hydroxymethyl group. It has a role as a nematicide, a fungal metabolite, a bacterial xenobiotic metabolite and a human urinary metabolite. It is an aromatic primary alcohol and a furoic acid.

Yohimbine hydrochloride is an alpha 2-adrenoreceptor antagonist, blocking the pre- and postsynaptic alpha-2 adrenoreceptors and causing an increased release of noradrenaline and dopamine.It is an antagonist to xylazine hydrochloride-ketamine hydrochloride immobilization of white-tailed deer. Yohimbine has been used as a mydriatic and in the treatment of impotence. It is also alleged to be an aphrodisiac.

(-)-Guaiol is a biocatalyst. Guaiol has insecticidal activity.

Bufotenin is a tertiary amine that consists of N,N-dimethyltryptamine bearing an additional hydroxy substituent at position 5. It has a role as a hallucinogen and a coral metabolite. It is a tertiary amine and a tryptamine alkaloid. It is functionally related to a N,N-dimethyltryptamine.

Bacopaside I is a modulator of Aquaporin-1 channel, has neuroprotective functions, it has anti-Alzheimer's disease, it ameliorates cognitive impairment in APP/PS1 mice via immune-mediated clearance of β-amyloid. Bacopaside I also exhibits an obvious antidepressant-like effect in mouse model of CUMS-induced depression that was mediated, at least in part, by modulating HPA hyperactivity and activating BDNF signaling pathway.

Gelsemine is a highly toxic compound and may be a glycine receptor agonist. Gelsemine has antitumor, anti-hyperlipidemic,anti-oxidative activities,it also has marked antinociception in inflammatory, neuropathic and bone cancer pains without inducing antinociceptive tolerance.

Miltirone is a CYPs inhibition, it has been characterized as a low-affinity ligand for central benzodiazepine receptors, it might ameliorate the symptoms associated with discontinuation of long-term administration of ethanol or of other positive modulators of the GABA A receptor. Miltirone possesses significant anticancer, antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities, the hepatocyte metabolism is the major route of clearance for miltirone. Miltirone is collateral sensitive in multidrug-resistant P-gp-overexpressing cells, induces G2/M arrest, and triggeres apoptosis via ROS-generated breakdown of MMP and DNA damage. Miltirone has antiprotozoal activity against T. brucei rhodesiense STIB 900.

N,N,N-Trimethylserotonin is a citraconoyl group.
