N1-Acetylspermine
N1-Acetylspermine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acetamides. These are organic compounds with the general formula RNHC(=O)CH3, where R= organyl group. N1-Acetylspermine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Outside of the human body, N1-Acetylspermine has been detected, but not quantified in several different foods, such as purple lavers, jutes, yams, pineapples, and fireweeds. This could make N1-acetylspermine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. N1-Acetylspermine is a polyamine that has been postulated to be an intermediate in the conversion of spermine to spermidine. N1-Acetylspermine is a polyamine that has been postulated to be an intermediate in the conversion of spermine to spermidine [HMDB]. N1-Acetylspermine is found in many foods, some of which are chinese cinnamon, purple laver, common sage, and mexican oregano.

Acetylhydrazine
The acetylhydrazine metabolite was found to be much less cytotoxic than hydrazine in this hepatocyte inflammation model. (PMID: 18295292) In the pathogenesis of isoniazid-induced hepatic injury, cytochrome P450-dependent metabolic activation of the metabolite, acetylhydrazine (AcHz), is the crucial step. (PMID: 8852701) The mechanism of action of acetylphosphabenzide is likely to involve the formation of acetylhydrazine, capable of producing active electrophiles attacking DNA.

Zanamivir
Zanamivir is only found in individuals that have used or taken this drug. It is a guanido-neuraminic acid that is used to inhibit neuraminidase. [PubChem]The proposed mechanism of action of zanamivir is via inhibition of influenza virus neuraminidase with the possibility of alteration of virus particle aggregation and release. By binding and inhibiting the neuraminidase protein, the drug renders the influenza virus unable to escape its host cell and infect others.

N-Acetylcadaverine
N-Acetylcadaverine is the acetylated form of the polyamine cadaverine. Cadaverine is produced by the breakdown of amino acids in living and dead organisms and is toxic in large doses. Cadaverine is largely responsible for the foul odor of putrefying flesh, but also contributes to the odor of such processes as bad breath and bacterial vaginosis. Cadaverine is also found in semen. Polyamines (and their acetylated forms) are known to be closely related with cell growth, cell proliferation, and synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Their concentrations are adjusted either by regulating the activity levels of the biosynthetic and catabolic reactions or by controlling the net direction of polyamine acetylation-deacetylation. In Alzheimers disease (AD), the neurotoxic amyloid β-peptide is known to up-regulate polyamine metabolism by increasing ornithine decarboxylase activity and polyamine uptake by initiating free radical damage. Because of these findings, polyamines have been considered to play an important role in response to neurodegenerative conditions. Altered levels of polyamines have been found in tissue, hair and body fluids of patients with neuromuscular diseases and neurodegenerative conditions. (PMID: 17723614).
