Octadecyl Rhodamine B chloride, also known as RBOE, is a polarity-sensitive dye that is often used as a chromophore with other compounds to stain cell membranes and has applications in the assembly of organic molecules, in membrane structures and in the transfer of electron energy in the structural domains of proteins.

Pinobanksin and some of its ester derivatives from Sonoran propolis have apoptotic induction in a B-cell lymphoma cell line.

Selective antagonist of formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) signaling. Inhibits WKYMVm binding to FPR2 (IC50 = 0.23 μM) and inhibits intracellular calcium release induced by WKYMVm, MMK 1, amyloid β42, and F peptide. Also inhibits FPR2-mediated signaling in human neutrophils; blocks chemotactic migration and superoxide generation by amyloid β42 peptide.
