The calpains are a family of calcium-dependent cysteine proteases that catalyze limited proteolysis of substrates.{13816} Calpain Inhibitor III is a cell permeable, selective inhibitor of μ-calpain (calpain-1) and m-calpain (calpain-2).{22713} Calpain Inhibitor III crosses the blood-brain barrier to inhibit brain cysteine protease activity and has been reported to have neuroprotective effects in numerous rodent neurotrauma models, including spinal cord injury, cortical impact trauma, neonatal hypoxia-ischemia, and focal cerebral ischemia.{22714} Additionally, Calpain Inhibitor III has been shown to attenuate depression in myocardial contractile performance that occurs during reperfusion following cardiac ischemia.{22712}

  • A powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 250 mg

    The tetracycline repressor (TetR) is a transcriptional regulator which normally binds tightly to its palindromic tetO operator DNA, blocking gene expression.{17508} Tet causes the repressor to dissociate from the DNA, allowing transcription to occur. A novel reverse TetR (revTetR) requires tetracycline as a co-repressor to bind tetO and block transcription.{17509,17510} Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a powerful effector in both the tetracycline repressor (TetR) and reverse TetR (revTetR) systems, binding the Tet repressor 35-fold more strongly than Tet.{17508,17511} Moreover, anhydrotetracycline poorly binds the 30S ribosomal subunit, compared to Tet,{17512} so it does not act as a general inhibitor of translation and is a poor antibiotic. Perhaps related to this, the concentration of anhydrotetracycline that inhibits eukaryotic cell growth is more than a 1,000-fold above the dose that alters transcription through TetR.{17508}
