<p>Ginsenoside Rh4 is a bioactive compound, which is a type of saponin. It is derived from Panax ginseng, a plant that has been used traditionally in herbal medicine. The mode of action of Ginsenoside Rh4 involves modulating various biochemical pathways, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. This compound influences the expression of cytokines and reactive oxygen species, contributing to its potential therapeutic effects.</p>

<p>Clinodiside A is a triterpenoid saponin, which is a type of secondary metabolite found in certain marine sponges. The source of this compound is primarily marine organisms, particularly sponges in the genus Cliona. Clinodiside A operates through various biochemical pathways, including disrupting cell membrane integrity and inducing apoptosis in certain cell types. This mode of action is particularly relevant in the context of inhibiting cancer cell proliferation and providing antitumor activities.</p>

<p>Formononetin 7-O-glucoside-6''-O-malonate is a naturally occurring flavonoid compound, which is often derived from various plant sources, particularly those in the legume family. It is a malonylated glucoside derivative of formononetin, a well-known isoflavone. This compound plays a significant role in the plants' defense mechanisms and contributes to their physiological processes.</p>

<p>Luteolin-7-O-neohesperidoside is a flavonoid glycoside, which is predominantly derived from various plant sources, particularly those belonging to the families Rosaceae and Lamiaceae. It is structurally characterized by the attachment of luteolin to a neohesperidose sugar moiety, which alters its solubility and bioavailability properties. The mode of action of Luteolin-7-O-neohesperidoside involves its capacity to act as a potent antioxidant, scavenging free radicals and protecting cells from oxidative stress. It also demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting key enzymes and signaling pathways involved in inflammatory responses.</p>

<p>Rebaudioside B is a type of steviol glycoside, which is a naturally occurring compound extracted from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. This plant, native to Paraguay, is known for its intensely sweet leaves, which have been utilized for centuries by indigenous peoples for sweetening purposes.</p>

<p>Rebaudioside J is a non-caloric sweetener, which is a purified glycoside derived from the Stevia rebaudiana plant. The Stevia plant, native to South America, is well known for its sweet-tasting compounds, mainly the steviol glycosides. Rebaudioside J is one of these glycosides, specifically noted for its high sweetness intensity and favorable taste profile compared to other steviol glycosides.</p>

<p>Calendoflavoside is a flavonoid-based compound, which is an extract derived from the calendula plant, known for its rich flavonoid content. It functions primarily through the modulation of inflammatory pathways, acting on specific signaling molecules to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. This mode of action is particularly valuable in therapeutic contexts, as it allows Calendoflavoside to target and mitigate inflammation at the cellular level.</p>

<p>Ziziphin is a triterpene glycoside which exhibits taste-modifying properties and derives from the leaves of Ziziphus jujuba (Rhamnaceae). In a study, Ziziphin was up to 4 times more active in suppressing the sweet taste of sucrose than other anti-sweet constituents (Suttisri, 1995). Ziziphin suppressed the sweetness induced by D-glucose, D-fructose, stevioside, glycine, sodium saccharin, aspartame and naringin dihydrochalcone. Ziziphin however showed no uppressive effect on the sour taste of hydrochloric acid and the bitter taste of quinine, indicating that ziziphin is highly specific to the sweet taste (Kurihara, 1992). Ziziphin was found to inhibit the sweet taste receptors in humans (Smith, 1983) by a mechanism known as taste modification. In comparison with known gymnemic acids, effects suggest that net dissociation of ziziphins from taste receptor membranes and/or inactivation in the membrane may be much faster than with gymnemic acids (Mahajan, 2009).</p>
