Tricine can clearly visualize tumors, may as melanoma imaging agents. Using the combination of tricine and a phosphine ligand, HYNIC-derivatized peptides or other small molecules can be labeled with 99mTc in high specific activity and with high stability for potential use as radiopharmaceuticals.

Guvacine can enhance the inhibition of spinal neurones by GABA.

ND-646 是一种口服生物可利用的 ACC 酶 ACC1 和 ACC2 变构抑制剂（重组 hACC1 和 hACC2 的 IC50 分别为 3.5 nM 和 4.1 nM） ND-646 - ACC 酶的变构抑制剂。 ACC1 和 ACC2 阻止 ACC 亚基二聚化，从而抑制体外和体内脂肪酸合成。
