15(S)-Fluprostenol isopropyl ester (15(S)-Flu-Ipr) is the unnatural C-15 epimer of Travoprost. Travoprost is the Alcon trade name for fluprostenol isopropyl ester, (Flu-Ipr) an F-series prostaglandin analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug.{8839,9613} Flu-Ipr is a prodrug which is converted by esterase enzymatic activity in the cornea to yield the corresponding free acid. The free acid, fluprostenol, is a potent FP receptor agonist.{8322} In human and animal models of glaucoma, FP receptor agonist activity corresponds very closely with intraocular hypotensive activity. Although data is currently not available for the activity of 15(S)-Flu-Ipr, inversion of the stereochemistry at the 15 position of ocular hypotensive prostaglandins generally lowers the potency approximately 100 fold.{1107}

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.

The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 µM compared to 20 µM by resveratrol.{14545}
