D-Methyldopa is an inactive isomer of methyldopa. It is known, that only L-isomer has the ability to inhibit dopa decarboxylase and possesses the antihypertensive activity in man. Moreover, about twice the dose of the racemate (DL-form of methyldopa) is required for the equal antihypertensive effect.

(E)-Endoxifen is the E-isomer of (Z)-Endoxifen, potent selective estrogen receptor modulator. Endoxifen exists as the potently anti-estrogenic (Z)-isomer and the lesser known (E)-isomer. It is assumed that (E)-Endoxifen, structurally related to (E)-4-OH-tamoxifen, have similar pharmacological properties. The (E)-isomer is an impurity in (Z)-Endoxifen drug substance and increases under certain storage conditions. (E)-Endoxifen is identified as the primary degradant.

Oleandrin is a toxic cardiac glycoside found in oleander (Nerium oleander L.). Along with neandrin it is primarily responsible for the toxicity of the sap of oleander. Oleandrin has been used for many years in China and Russia for its properties as a cardiac glycoside, for both suicidal and therapeutic purposes as in treatment of cardiac insufficiency. Because of its properties as a cardiac glycoside, oleandrin interferes in some essential processes within the cell, the most important of these being the inhibition of the Na-K ATPase. This protein enables the cell to exchange the cations Na+ and K+ between the intercellular and extracellular spaces by which, for instance, electronic signaling is made possible in nerve cells. Oleandrin binds to specific amino acids in the protein, causing it to lose its function. After depolarization of the cell in which Na+ flows into the cell, the Na+ cannot be transported back into the extracellular membrane, causing the sodium gradient to disappear. This gradient is the driving force for other transport proteins, such as the sodium-calcium exchanger, which plays an important role in cardiomyocytes. To make muscle contraction possible, a calcium influx from the extracellular fluid into the cell is crucial. After the muscle contraction, the calcium is normally pumped out of the cell and exchanged for sodium. When the sodium gradient is depleted, calcium cannot be pumped back and, as a consequence, accumulates in the cardiomyocyte. As a result of the high calcium concentration, actin and myosin filaments will bind stronger, unable to relax properly to make a new contraction possible. This may result in cardiac arrhythmias, in the worst case decreasing cardiac output and causing a shortage in oxygen supply in vital tissues. Apart from being a potent toxic compound, it may also be used in therapeutic ways. Both oleandrin and oleandrigenin, as well as their relatives, may be able to inhibit proliferation of tumor cells and stimulate their apoptosis as a result of the high concentration of intracellular calcium. In addition, it inhibits excretion of fibroblast growth factor 2 through membrane interaction and through inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase pump. However, there are no results from clinical testing on humans that support any use as a cancer treatment. Oleandrin has been reported to be lethal, but exact dosages are not fully documented. The fatal blood concentration of oleandrin has been estimated for humans to be approximately 20 ng/ml in decreased blood by extrapolation of intoxication symptoms. Symptoms present in poisoned animals include bloody diarrhea and colic, the latter especially in horses. Because the leaf itself is quite bitter, only starving animals will be likely to eat the plant. The lethal dosage for animals is estimated to be about 0.5 mg/kg.

Zinc telluride is a binary chemical compound with the formula ZnTe. Zinc telluride (ZnTe) is a wide-band-gap II–VI semiconductor (E g=2.25 eV at 300 K) crystallizing in the cubic, zinc-blende structure. This material is promising for application as a purely green light-emitting diode. As Zinc telluride can be easily doped, and for this reason it is one of the more common semiconducting materials used in optoelectronics. Zinc telluride finds applications in the following: LEDs and laser diodes Solar cells Tetrahertz imaging Electro-optic detector Holographic interferometry Laser optical phase conjugation devices. Gold–zinc telluride (Au–ZnTe) core–shell nanoparticles were synthesized to support surface modifications for enhanced drug delivery in cancer therapeutics.

4,4’-Diamino-2,2’-stilbenedisulfonic acid (also known as amsonic acid) is used in the synthesis of dyes and optical brighteners or fluorescent whitening agents. Amsonic acid possesses estrogenic activity, and thus provided a possible mechanistic explanation for the complaints of impotency in factory workers exposed to this compound. In the 2-year feed studies on rodents, there was no evidence of carcinogenic activity of amsonic acid, in male or female F344/N rats receiving 12,500 or 25,000 ppm. In addition, there was no evidence of carcinogenic activity of this compound in male or female B6C3F1 mice receiving 6,250 or 12,500 ppm.

Adrenochrome is a member of a class of chemicals known as aminochromes, each one derived by the oxidation of its precursor amine. Adrenochrome was proposed for the biogenesis of schizophrenia in 1952. Since that time the adrenochrome theory has been one of the most established and discussed theories in this field. It is known, that adrenochrome is toxic to myocar-dial tissue and may be responsible for fibril-lation and sudden death under stress. Aminochrome has been suggested as a physiological preclinical model capable of inducing five of the six mechanisms of Parkinson's disease. Until now, there is no evidence that aminochrome induces glial activation related to neuroinflammation, an important mechanism involved in the loss of dopaminergic neurons, but was shown, aminochrome neuroinflammatory ability and supported the hypothesis that it might be a better PD preclinical model to find new pharmacological treatment that stop the development of this disease.

D-aspartic acid is an essential amino acid and a key ingredient in various testosterone boosting anti-estrogen supplements. D-aspartic acid is not used to build proteins; instead, it plays a role in making and releasing hormones in the body. It is an endogenous NMDA receptor agonist with similar activity to the L-isomer. D-aspartic acid also enhances the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone. This action is mediated in the pituitary by cGMP and in the testis by cAMP, which acts as the second messengers in the signal transduction in the pituitary and testes respectively. The pituitary and testis possess a D-Aspartate racemase, which provides the necessary production of this isomer.
