Chemical activators of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B can be pivotal in regulating its function through various biochemical pathways. Forskolin is a well-known activator of adenylate cyclase, which catalyzes the conversion of ATP to cAMP, a secondary messenger that activates protein kinase A (PKA). Upon activation, PKA can phosphorylate a spectrum of proteins, including major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B, leading to its functional activation. Similarly, IBMX acts to raise cAMP levels by inhibiting phosphodiesterases that break down cAMP, thus prolonging the activation of PKA and subsequent activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. Epinephrine, a hormone and a neurotransmitter, binds to adrenergic receptors and induces an increase in cAMP levels, which then activates PKA. The activated PKA is then capable of phosphorylating major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B, enhancing its activity. Isoproterenol, another adrenergic agonist, also elevates cAMP levels and activates PKA, which may lead to the phosphorylation and activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B.

Additionally, cholera toxin activates adenylate cyclase in an irreversible manner, causing an upsurge in cAMP and activation of PKA, which is likely to result in the phosphorylation and activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. Dibutyryl-cAMP, a synthetic analogue of cAMP, can directly activate PKA, bypassing the need for adenylate cyclase activation, thus leading to the activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. PMA, an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), can phosphorylate major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B on different residues, providing an alternative pathway for its activation. Ionomycin, by increasing intracellular calcium levels, can activate calmodulin-dependent kinase (CaMK), which may also phosphorylate and activate major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. The calcium ionophore A23187 functions similarly to Ionomycin, possibly leading to the activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B through CaMK-mediated phosphorylation. Anisomycin activates the JNK pathway, which can lead to the activation of transcription factors that upregulate kinases, which in turn can phosphorylate and activate major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. Okadaic acid, by inhibiting protein phosphatases that dephosphorylate proteins, helps maintain proteins such as major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B in a phosphorylated, active state. Finally, phosphatidic acid can activate the mTOR signaling pathway, which may result in the phosphorylation and consequent activation of major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B. Through the interaction with these diverse signaling molecules and pathways, major facilitator superfamily domain containing 13B can be actively regulated within the cell.
