Ly93 is a selective and orally active sphingomyelin synthase 2 (SMS2) inhibitor (IC50: 91 nM) used for studying atherosclerosis.

ML-180 is a potent orphan nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1; NR5A2) inverse agonist (IC50 of 3.7 μM) .ML-180 (0.5-5 μM; 24 hours) shows a significant inhibition of cyclin-D1 and cyclin-E1 expression in hepatic cells, but has little effect on repression in SK-OV-3 cells[2]. ML-180 (5 μM; 24 hours) leads to a rapid decrease of LRH-1 expression and efficiently represses endogenous LRH-1 signaling.

Heptyl hexanoate is a lipid compound from pepper and buttercup inflorescences and is a pheromone contained in female Creontiades dilutus.
