δ-Tocotrienol is a form of vitamin E that has been found in rice bran and has diverse biological activities.{3679,14290,14291,58093} It reduces cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide, paraquat, S-nitrocysteine, SIN-1 (Item No. 82220), or L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO; Item No. 14484) in rat striatal cultures when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 µM.{14290} δ-Tocotrienol (10 µM) reduces 25-hydroxycholesterol-induced surface expression of VCAM-1 in human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs), as well as reduces 25-hydroxycholesterol-induced HAEC adhesion to U937 monocytes.{14291} It inhibits LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO), TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and IFN-γ in RAW 264.7 cells. δ-Tocotrienol (60 mg/kg) increases the glomerular filtration rate and decreases renal malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in a rat model of nephrotoxicity induced by ochratoxin A (Item No. 11439).{58094}

Description

At 0.1-10 µM, .delta.-tocotrienol significantly suppresses H2O2-induced cell death of rat striatal neurons and provides protection against S-nitrocysteine-induced cell death and SIN-1 cytotoxicity in a concentration dependant manner.{14290} At concentrations of 10 µM, .delta.-tocotrienol displays more inhibitory action on adhesiveness of HAECs to U937 monocytic cells, via inhibition of VCAM-1 expression, than α-tocopherol and other tocotrienols at the same concentration.{14291}

  • 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}
