A water-soluble radiographic contrast media for cholecystography and intravenous cholangiography.

Somatostatin (GHIH), a peptide hormone, regulates the endocrine system and affects neural transmission and cell proliferation by interacting with G-protein-coupled somatostatin receptors and inhibiting the release of multiple secondary hormones. Somatostatin inhibits secretion of insulin and glucagon.

Irisflorentin blocks apoptosis pathways, by exerting its effects by promoting rpn-3 expression to enhance the activity of proteasomes and down-regulating egl-1 expression.
