Allantoic acid
Allantoic acid is the end product of Allantoicase [EC:3.5.3.4], an enzyme involved in uric acid degradation (Purine metabolism). Although it is commonly accepted that allantoicase is lost in mammals, it has been identified in mice and humans. (PMID 11852104). A crystalline, transparent, colorless substance found in the allantoic liquid of the fetal calf. It was formerly called allantoic acid and amniotic acid. Isolated from coffee beans and leaves KEIO_ID A139 Allantoic acid is a degradative product of uric acid and associated with purine metabolism[1][2][3].
3b,17b-Dihydroxyetiocholane
The unspecified form of the steroid, normally a major metabolite of testosterone with androgenic activity. It has been implicated as a regulator of gonadotropin secretion. [HMDB] The unspecified form of the steroid, normally a major metabolite of testosterone with androgenic activity. It has been implicated as a regulator of gonadotropin secretion.
Prunetin
Prunetin is a hydroxyisoflavone that is genistein in which the hydroxy group at position 7 is replaced by a methoxy group. It has a role as a metabolite, an EC 1.3.1.22 [3-oxo-5alpha-steroid 4-dehydrogenase (NADP(+))] inhibitor, an anti-inflammatory agent and an EC 1.2.1.3 [aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD(+))] inhibitor. It is a hydroxyisoflavone and a member of 7-methoxyisoflavones. It is functionally related to a genistein. It is a conjugate acid of a prunetin-5-olate. Prunetin is a natural product found in Iris milesii, Prunus leveilleana, and other organisms with data available. Occurs in several Prunus subspecies and Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice). Prunetin is found in tea, herbs and spices, and sour cherry. Prunetin is found in herbs and spices. Prunetin occurs in several Prunus species and Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice). A hydroxyisoflavone that is genistein in which the hydroxy group at position 7 is replaced by a methoxy group. Prunetin, an O-methylated isoflavone, possesses anti-inflammatory activity. Prunetin is a potent human aldehyde dehydrogenases inhibitor[1][2]. Prunetin, an O-methylated isoflavone, possesses anti-inflammatory activity. Prunetin is a potent human aldehyde dehydrogenases inhibitor[1][2]. Prunetin, an O-methylated isoflavone, possesses anti-inflammatory activity. Prunetin is a potent human aldehyde dehydrogenases inhibitor[1][2].
Isopentanol
Isopentanol, also known as isoamyl alcohol or 3-methylbutanol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as primary alcohols. Primary alcohols are compounds comprising the primary alcohol functional group, with the general structure RCOH (R=alkyl, aryl). Thus, isopentanol is considered to be a fatty alcohol lipid molecule. Isopentanol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble in water, and relatively neutral. Isopentanol exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Isopentanol is an alcoholic, banana, and burnt tasting compound. Isopentanol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within milk (cow). Isopentanol has also been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as chinese cinnamons, grapefruits, walnuts, wild leeks, and spearmints. This could make isopentanol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Isopentanol is one of several isomers of amyl alcohol. Isopentanol is the major higher chain alcohol in alcoholic beverages and is present in cider, mead, beer, wine, and spirits to varying degrees, being obtained by the fermentation of starches. Isopentanol, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with the diseases such as ulcerative colitis; isopentanol has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder celiac disease. Isopentanol is a metabolite found in Escherichia (PMID:18676713). Isopentyl alcohol is one of several isomers of amyl alcohol. It is a by-product of gut microbial fermentation (PMID: 17452087). It can be produced by 3-methylbutanal reductase (EC 1.1.1.265) from 3 methylbutanal. Isopentyl alcohol is the major higher chain alcohol in alcoholic beverages and is present in cider, mead, beer, wine, and spirits to varying degrees, being obtained by the fermentation of starches. Isopentanol has been shown to induce expression of CYP3A and CYP2E1 in human liver (PMID: 7574728). Isopentyl alcohol can also be found in many foods, some of which are chinese cabbage, white cabbage, elliotts blueberry, and pasta. It can be used as a flavouring agent.

Allantoic acid
A member of the class of ureas that consists of acetic acid in which the two methyl hydrogens are replaced by carbamoylamino groups respectively. Allantoic acid is a degradative product of uric acid and associated with purine metabolism[1][2][3].
