Ginsenoside CK is a metabolite of the saponin ginsenoside Rb1 (Item No. 15319) that has diverse biological activities.{52367,52368,52369,52370} Ginsenoside CK is formed from ginsenoside Rb1 via intestinal bacterial exo-β-D-glucosidase.{52367} It reduces protein levels of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and pro-MMP-9 in, and inhibits growth, adhesion, and invasion of, MHCC97-H human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCCs) when used at concentrations of 50 and 75 µM.{52368} It inhibits metastasis in an MHCC97-H mouse xenograft model but does not reduce tumor growth. Ginsenoside CK reduces the percentage of memory B cells in the spleen, the number of swollen joints, and lymph node hyperplasia in an adjuvant-induced model of rheumatoid arthritis.{52369} It increases the activity of pSer9-glycogen synthase kinase and insulin degrading enzyme (IDE) and reduces the accumulation of amyloid-β (1-42) (Aβ42; Item No. 20574) in the rat hippocampal CA1 and CA3 regions in a model of vascular dementia induced by chronic cerebral hypofusion.{52370} It also increases the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant of the Morris water maze when administered at doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg in the same model.

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 10 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) – 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}
