Ferulic acid is a hydroxycinnamic acid that is abundant in plants and originally derived from giant fennel (F. communis). This naturally-occurring phenolic has antioxidant activities that provide protection against inflammation and cancer.{1430,1420,19116,15917} Ferulic acid ethyl ester is a lipophilic derivative of ferulic acid, demonstrating increased ability to cross cell membranes.{21329} Ferulic acid ethyl ester has less antioxidant capacity than ferulic acid in neuronal PC12 cells (IC50 = 66.7 μM for ferulic acid ethyl ester vs. 44.6 μM for ferulic acid, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging).{21327} However, ferulic acid ethyl ester increases the expression of heme oxygenase-1, Hsp70, and Hsp72, providing neuroprotection against amyloid β-peptide.{21330,21328} Moreover, ferulic acid ethyl ester (25 μM) completely prevents cytotoxicity induced by ultraviolet B irradiation of normal human epidermal melanocytes, again associated with an induced expression of heme oxygenase-1 and Hsp70.{21326}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 25 µg

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
