Fenretinide is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of fenretinide (Item No. 17688) by GC- or LC-MS. Fenretinide is a synthetic derivative of retinoic acid (Item No. 11017) and an inhibitor of dihydroceramide desaturase (IC50 = 2.32 µM).{39681} It promotes the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the degradation of anti-apoptotic MCL-1, and the cleavage of pro-apoptotic PKCδ.{22943} At 5-20 µM, fenretinide selectively activates retinoic acid receptor γ (RARγ) and is reported to inhibit the growth of Caov-3, OVCAR-3, and SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells with IC50 values of 3.7, 6.9, and 8.2 µM, respectively.{24737,17895} It also increases activity of serine palmitoyl transferase (SPT) by 1.75-fold and induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in BMEC cells (IC50 = 2.4 µM).{12547} Fenretinide prevents lipid-induced reductions in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in isolated rat soleus muscle.{39682} In vivo, fenretinide (10 mg/ml in drinking water) reduces liver and soleus muscle neutral lipid content and inhibits high-fat diet-induced increases in dihydroceramide desaturase transcription.{39682}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 100 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.

  • 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}

    (R)-Roscovitine – 500 µg

    Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}
