CALCIUM PHYTATE is a calcium salt of phytic acid (also known as myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6), inositol polyphosphate), which is a strong chelator (complexing agent) of important minerals such as calcium, iron. In nature, it functions as storage for phosphorus in plants, especially in the hulls of nuts and seeds. Phytic acid (IP6) for a long period was considered an antinutritional factor. However, in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated its beneficial effects in the prevention and treatment of several pathological conditions and cancer. It also exhibits protective action in Parkinson's disease and this is correlated with its anti-inflammatory effect, which may be associated with suppression of pathways that involved in NF-κB and p-ERK. In addition was discovered, that phytic acid might provide a viable treatment option for Alzheimer's disease.
Sphingosine harbors two chiral centers and therefore exhibits four stereoisomers, only one of which, the D-erythro (2S,3R) is known to exist naturally. ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (±)- is a mixture of two isomers: inactive ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (+)- and the active ERYTHRO-SPHINGOSINE, (-), also known as D-erythro (2S,3R)-SPHINGOSINE or D-erythro –SPHINGOSINE. It was found, that D-erythro –SPHINGOSINE acts as a potent inhibitor of protein kinase C and of transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7). Besides, was shown, that sphingosine may be efficacious against alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, irrespective of TP53 mutation status. It also could evolve as alternative treatment options for aggressive lymphomas via PKC inhibition, apoptosis, and autophagy.

CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)

The 17-ketosteroid epiandrosterone is a metabolite of testosterone precursor dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Epiandrosterone have been considered to be merely inactive end product of DHEA, but may in fact be physiological effectors in their own right. It is formed in peripheral tissues, from which it is released into the circulation and is ultimately excreted in the urine. Epiandrosterone is only a weak androgen, but it is widely recognized to inhibit the pentose phosphate pathway and to decrease intracellular NADPH levels. Epiandrosterone may act as a L-type Ca2+ channel antagonist. Epiandrosterone mainly transformed into 17beta-hydroxylated derivatives, 7- or 16alpha-hydroxylated metabolites under NAD(P)H conditions, and 5alpha-androstane-3,17-dione under NAD(P)+ conditions. Epiandrosterone is used as an anabolic agent (dietary supplement, a precursor to dihydrotestosterone) to increase strength, muscle hardness and also improves libido.
