LM22A-4 is a brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mimetic and agonist of the receptor tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB; IC50 = 47 nM in a fluorescence anisotropy assay).{38767} It selectively inhibits BDNF binding to 3T3 cells expressing TrkB over those expressing TrkA, TrkC, or p75NTR. In vitro, LM22A-4 increases survival of hippocampal neurons via activation of TrkB as well as Akt and ERK downstream pro-survival signaling pathways. In vivo, LM22A-4 increases dwell time in an accelerating rotarod task, indicating improved motor learning in a rat model of traumatic brain injury. LM22A-4 restores TrkB phosphorylation in the medulla and pons and breathing frequency to wild-type levels in a mouse model of Rett syndrome when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg.{38768} It reduces neurite degeneration, formation of intranuclear huntingtin aggregates, and improves downward climbing and grip strength in mouse models of Huntington’s disease.{38769} LM22A-4 (0.22 mg/kg) also improves limb swing speed and accelerates return to normal gait accuracy in a mouse model of hypoxic-ischemic stroke.{38770}

    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.

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

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 500 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}
