Eldelin
Deltaline is a diterpene alkaloid, a tertiary alcohol, a tertiary amino compound, an acetate ester, a cyclic acetal and an organic polycyclic compound. It derives from a hydride of an aconitane. Deltaline is a natural product found in Delphinium cheilanthum, Delphinium andersonii, and other organisms with data available. Deltaline. CAS Common Chemistry. CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society, n.d. https://commonchemistry.cas.org/detail?cas_rn=6836-11-9 (retrieved 2024-07-09) (CAS RN: 6836-11-9).

Deltaline itself has analgesic properties, and plants of the genus Delphinium delavayi Franch have also been therapeutically used to treat rheumaticpain, paralysis due to stroke, rheumatoid arthritis[1].

GDP-L-fucose
GDP-L-fucose is a sugar nucleotide and a readily available source of fucose. Fucose is a deoxyhexose that is found in nearly all plant and animal species. The monosaccharide plays several important metabolic roles in complex carbohydrates and in glycoproteins. Fucosylated oligosaccharides are involved in cell-cell recognition, selectin-mediated leukocyte-endothelial adhesion, and mouse embryogenesis. They form the basis of the Lewis-type blood group antigens, are involved in the formation of atherosclerosis, and mediate host-bacterial interactions. A decrease in the availability of fucose is associated with leukocyte adhesion deficiency type-II disorder, and fucosylated glycoproteins have been implicated in memory processes. Fucose is made available during the synthesis of fucosylated glycolipids, oligosaccharides, and glycoproteins via a sugar nucleotide intermediate, specifically GDP-L-fucose. GTP-L-fucose pyrophosphorylase (GFPP, E. C. 2.7.7.30) catalyzes the reversible condensation of guanosine triphosphate and beta-L-fucose-1-phosphate to form the nucleotide-sugar GDP-L-fucose. The enzyme functions primarily in the mammalian liver and kidney to salvage free L-fucose during the breakdown of glycolipids and glycoproteins. (PMID: 16086588). Gdp-l-fucose, also known as gdp fucose or guanosine diphosphate fucose, is a member of the class of compounds known as purine nucleotide sugars. Purine nucleotide sugars are purine nucleotides bound to a saccharide derivative through the terminal phosphate group. Gdp-l-fucose is slightly soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Gdp-l-fucose can be found in a number of food items such as breadnut tree seed, okra, pineapple, and pitanga, which makes gdp-l-fucose a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Gdp-l-fucose can be found primarily throughout most human tissues. Gdp-l-fucose exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. In humans, gdp-l-fucose is involved in a couple of metabolic pathways, which include fructose and mannose degradation and fructose intolerance, hereditary. Gdp-l-fucose is also involved in fructosuria, which is a metabolic disorder. Acquisition and generation of the data is financially supported in part by CREST/JST.
