Thyropropic Acid (also known as Triopron) is a hydrocinnamic acid derivative and naturally occurring thyroid analog with antigoitrogenic and anticholesteremic activity. Thyropropic Acid acts as potent antagonist of thyroid hormone receptors and may be useful in the therapy of resistance to thyroid hormone and corticosteroid-induced skin atrophy. In preclinical models, Thyropropic Acid reduced serum cholesterol 27% and liver incorporation of acetate into cholesterol 37% but did not affect liver cholesterol levels.

Hyodeoxycholic acid, also known as HDCA, is a secondary bile acid. Natural 6alpha-hydroxylated bile acids are receptor-specific activators of nuclear liver X receptor alpha (LXRalpha), a nuclear receptor regulating the expression of the cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase gene. AHRO-001 (Hyodeoxycholic acid) is in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of atherosclerosis. Through a complex signaling processes utilizing LXR receptors, the compound is designed to increase the efficiency of cholesterol efflux using the HDL cells, which act on all cholesterol in the arterial circulation as well as in the lipid core of plaque deposits in the artery walls. Use of AHRO-001 has shown no adverse effects on morbidity, mortality or toxicity and has been well tolerated at high doses.
Fusaric acid (J-butylpicolinic acid) is a fungal toxin with low to moderate toxicity synthesized by some Fusurium species which cause infections in cereal grains and other agricultural commodities. It may potentiate the effects of other Fusurium toxins. Fusaric acid is a potent inhibitor of DNA synthesis. Fusaric acid has potent anti-proliferative activity in vitro on various normal and cancer cell lines and suggest that it exhibits some cytotoxic specificity for growing and confluent colorectal adenocarcinoma and mammary adenocarcinoma cell lines. Fusaric acid is known as a potent dopamine-beta-hydroxylase inhibitor of high specificity. Fusaric acid calcium salt elicited the hypotensive response primarily through the reduction of total peripheral vascular resistance index.

Urocanic acid is a breakdown (deamination) product of histidine. In the liver, urocanic acid is an intermediate in the conversion of histidine to glutamic acid, whereas in the epidermis, it accumulates and may be both a UV protectant and an immunoregulator. Urocanic acid (UA) exists as a trans isomer (t-UA, approximately 30 mg/cm2) in the uppermost layer of the skin (stratum corneum). t-UA is formed as the cells of the second layer of skin become metabolically inactive. During this process, proteins and membranes degrade, histidine is released, and histidase (histidine ammonia lyase) catalyzes the deamination of histidine to form t-UA. t-UA accumulates in the epidermis until removal by either the monthly skin renewal cycle or sweat. Upon absorption of UV light, the naturally occurring t-UA isomerizes to its cis form, c-UA. Because DNA lesions (e. g. , pyrimidine dimers) in the lower epidermis can result from UV-B absorption, initial research proposed that t-UA acted as a natural sunscreen absorbing UV-B in the stratum corneum before the damaging rays could penetrate into lower epidermal zones. c-UA also suppresses contact hypersensitivity and delayed hypersensitivity, reduces the Langerhans cell count in the epidermis, prolongs skin-graft survival time, and affects natural killer cell activity. It has also been proposed that c-UA may mediate the transient alteration in immune surveillance resulting in immunosuppression induced after UV-irradiation, by interacting with immune cells locally and/or systemically to generate T cells with suppressor function.

Tibric Acid is a sulfamoylbenzoic acid derivative patented by American multinational pharmaceutical corporation Pfizer Inc. as a hypolipidemic agent. In preclinical models, Tibric acid, given orally, was more effective than clofibrate in preventing the hyperlipemic and hypercholesteremic effects of various diets in rats. At high concentrations in vitro, Tibric acid moderately inhibited ADP- or thrombin-induced aggregation of rabbit blood platelets. In patients with severe type IV hyperlipoproteinemia and chylomicronemia, Tibric Acid lowered serum triglyceride and cholesterol values but administration of Tibric Acid to a normal subject did not affect serum lipid levels.
