Microcystins are a group of cyclic heptapeptide hepatotoxins produced by a number of cyanobacterial genera. The most notable of which, and namesake, is the widespread genus Microcystis. Structurally, all microcystins consist of the generalized structure cyclo(-D-Ala1-X2-D-MeAsp3-Y4-Adda5-D-Glu6-Mdha7-). X and Y are variable L-amino acids, D-MeAsp is D-erythro-β-methylaspartic acid and Mdha is N-methyldehydroalanine. Adda is the cyanobacteria unique C20 β-amino acid 3-amino-9-methoxy-2,6,8-trimethyl-10-phenyl-deca-4,6-dienoic acid. Substitutions of the variable L-amino acids at positions 2 and 4 give rise to at least 21 known primary microcystin analogs and alterations in the other constituent amino acids result in more than 90 reported mycrocystins to date.

Endogenous cannabinoid. Weak ligand of CB1 (Ki=23.8µM) and CB2 (Ki=13.9µM) receptor. Inhibits fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) (IC50=5.1µM). Immunosuppressant, anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive and anti-convulsant in vivo. The exact mode of action has not yet been revealed. It has been suggested that PEA: i) binds to a yet to be discovered cannabinoid receptor similar to CB2; ii) administered in vivo elicits the synthesis of endogenous agonists of CB2; iii) acts as an "entourage" compound by enhancing the activity and/or by influencing the turnover of endogenous agonists of CB2, possibly but not uniquely, by inhibiting their degradation.

USP21 is a ubiquitin-specific protease that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ubH2A thereby acting to relieve ubH2A-specific repression. USP21 is also thought to be involved with hepatocyte regeneration. Furthermore, in addition to its deubiquitinylating activity, USP21 is capable of removing NEDD8 from NEDD8 conjugates but has no effect on SUMO conjugates.

Potent, selective inhibitor of iNOS (NOS II). The Ki values for inhibition of iNOS (NOS II), nNOS (NOS I), and eNOS (NOS III) by ENIPO are 17, 10.3 and 58.2 µm, respectively, as determined using initial rate binding kinetics. However, ENIPO is a time-dependent inhibitor that, with longer incubations, demonstrates reversible tight binding inhibition that is selective for iNOS (NOS II) over nNOS (NOS I) or eNOS (NOS III). This selectivity results from iNOS (NOS II) exhibiting a 4-fold faster binding and 10-fold slower dissociation with ENIPO compared to nNOS (NOS I). Ki values for ENIPO binding to iNOS (NOS II) and nNOS (NOS I) are 0.56 and 6 µm, respectively. Accurate determination of the Ki value of ENIPO for eNOS (NOS III) has not been determined but is expected to be 50-fold less than iNOS (NOS II).

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (7-36) amide (GLP-1 (7-36) amide) is the principal active form of GLP-1, the other being GLP-1 (7-37). GLP-1 is a peptide hormone of the glucagon family, produced by the L cells of the intestinal mucosa from the same prohormone as glucagon. The active forms are potent stimulators of glucose-dependent insulin secretion. The sequence of GLP-1 is fully conserved in all mammalian species examined so far.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (9-36) amide and GLP-1 (9-37) are the forms of GLP-1 which result from rapid degradation of the active forms of the peptide (GLP-1 (7-36) amide and GLP-1 (7-37)) by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV, also known as CD26 or adenosine deaminase binding protein). GLP-1 is a peptide hormone of the glucagon family, produced by the L cells of the intestinal mucosa from the same prohormone as glucagon. The active forms are potent stimulators of glucose-dependent insulin secretion. The sequence of GLP-1 is fully conserved in all mammalian species examined so far.

Dog neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL; also lipocalin 2 or siderocalin) may, by analogy with its homologues in other mammalian species, be released from activated neutrophils in inflammation or infection from certain epithelial cancers, and more dramatically from renal tubular cells in response to ischemic or nephrotoxic injury.

Human gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) is a 42-amino-acid peptide belonging to the glucagon-secretin family of peptide hormones. It is secreted by endocrine cells in the duodenal mucosa and stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion as well as GLP-1 release from more distal endocrine (L) cells in the intestinal mucosa. GIP shows amino-acid sequence similarities to glucagon, GLP-1 and GLP-2 (from approximately 50% identity for glucagon to 30% identity for GLP-2).

C5b-9, also known as the terminal complement complex (TCC), consists of C5b, C6, C7, C8 and C9, and it forms the membrane attack complex (MAC) as well as the non-lytic fluid-phase SC5b-9 complex (with protein S). The MAC forms channels in target cell membranes leading to cell lysis by osmotic leakage. The complexes contain neoantigens absent from the individual native components from which they are formed, and the antibody is directed against a neoepitope exposed on C9 when incorporated into the TCC.
