UN-No:
Non-Hazardous - /

Urolithin A is a secondary metabolite of ellagic acid (Item No. 10569), a polyphenolic antioxidant, that has antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant properties.{40131} It decreases proliferation in ECC-1, Ishikawa, and HEC-1A human endometrial cancer cell lines at a concentration of 1 µM, arrests the cell cycle at the G2/M transition, and modulates estrogen receptor-regulated gene expression.{40132} It also potentiates the antiproliferative effect of 5-fluorouracil (Item No. 14416) in Caco-2, SW480, and HT-29 cells.{40128} In a rat model of colitis, urolithin A reduces inflammation, decreasing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; Item No. 14010) levels and preventing upregulation of COX-2 gene expression and protein levels in colonic mucosa.{40129} It also induces mitophagy in C. elegans, C2C12 myoblasts, and Mode-K intestinal cells in correlation with improved fitness and extended lifespan in C. elegans and increased exercise capacity in mice.{40130}

  • 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}
