Abietic acid (AA), a diterpene produced by conifer species, such as grand fir and lodgepole pine, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects and can be used as a wound-healing agent. Its treatment elevates cell migration and tube formation in human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells by the activation of ERK and p38 MAPKs. In addition was shown, that abietic acid could be used as an antimetastatic agent or as an adjuvant for anticancer therapy. AA acts as a PPARα/γ dual activator to inhibit age-related inflammation by suppressing NF-κB and the MAPK/AP-1 pathway and can be a useful agent for improving skin photoaging.

Thiosalicylic acid is an analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent. It is used (in form of sodium salt) to relieve symptoms of acute gout, painful musculoskeletal conditions, osteoarthritis and rheumatic fever. The drug exerts its action by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. Thiosalicylic acid usage is associated with the risk of contact dermatitis.

Gibberellic acid was first discovered in Japan in 1935 as a result of the study of a condition common in rice plants called "foolish seedling" disease, which caused the plants to grow much taller than normal. The effects of gibberellins weren't widely understood until years later. Gibberellic acid, GA3 is a naturally occurring plant hormone that regulates the growth of plants, including triggering seed germination. Gibberellic Acid is not manufactured; it's a natural product extracted from the Gibberella fujikuroi fungus. There are over 100 known forms of gibberellic acid; GA3 is the most effective. Gibberellic acid (GA3) is used extensively in Egypt and other countries, to increase the growth of many fruits (such as strawberries and grapes) and vegetables (such as tomatoes, cabbages and cauliflower). Carcinogenic effect of Gibberellic acid has being demonstrated in several studies. Gibberellic acid increased the activity of testicular 3β-HSD and 17β-HSD and elevated testosterone content in rats, acting as an agonist of steroidogenesis in male rats. Gibberellic acid has being suggested to promote ulcer-healing, healing of surgical wounds or open fractures and treatment of bronchitis or thrombophlebitis in animals including humans.
