1-Pyridin-4-yl-imidazolidin-2-one is a potent inhibitor of the growth hormone receptor, which in turn prevents the activation of the insulin receptor and glycogenolysis. It has been shown to attenuate cachexia in mice by reducing their weight loss. 1Pyridin-4-yl-imidazolidin-2-one also exerts an antihypertensive effect on congestive heart failure by inhibiting alpha 2 adrenergic receptors. This drug has been shown to have a stimulatory effect on premarin production and to be an effective insecticide against aphids, mites, and caterpillars.

3-Acetamido-4-picoline (3AP) is a fatty acid that has been used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. It is also a potent activator of AMPK, which is an enzyme that regulates cellular metabolism and energy homeostasis. 3AP has been shown to have antibacterial activity against a wide range of bacteria, including Mycoplasma and endophytic fungi. 3AP also inhibits leukotriene receptor antagonists, which are important for the inflammatory response. 3AP may be used as a diagnostic agent to measure body fat mass and body mass index in humans. The type strain for this compound is ATCC 21797.

4-(Benzyloxy)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde is a functional compound that has various tautomeric forms. It can be found in the mesomorphic form at low temperatures and in the imine form at higher temperatures. It is also active as an anti-inflammatory agent, inhibiting cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes. 4-(Benzyloxy)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde has been shown to have a protective effect on cells from Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases by preventing the aggregation of beta-amyloid proteins that are implicated in these diseases.

Dicyclohexylacetic acid is an organic compound that is used as a reagent to measure the binding constants of proteins. It has a hydrophobic effect, which may be due to its particle size, and it has been shown to have antioxidant properties. Dicyclohexylacetic acid is also used in the production of chemical structures, such as hydrogen bond and carboxylate. It can be used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases by inhibiting serine protease activity and radiation therapy. Naphthenic acids are found in crude oil, and FT-IR spectroscopy can be used to detect these acids.
