8-iso Prostaglandin F2α (8-iso PGF2α) is an isoprostane produced by the non-enzymatic peroxidation of arachidonic acid in membrane phospholipids.{320,371,855} It is present in human plasma in two distinct forms – esterified in phospholipids and as the free acid. The ratio of these two forms is approximately 2:1, with a total plasma 8-iso PGF2α level of about 150 pg/ml in normal volunteers. In normal human urine, 8-iso PGF2α levels are about 180-200 pg/mg of creatinine.{320,371} 8-iso PGF2α is a weak TP receptor agonist in vascular smooth muscle.{6640} Conversely, 8-iso PGF2α inhibits platelet aggregation induced by U-46619 (10−6 M) and I-BOP (3 x 10−7 M) with IC50 values of 1.6 x 10−6 M and 1.8 x 10−6 M, respectively.{855} 8-iso Prostaglandin F2α MaxSpec® standard is a quantitative grade standard of 8-iso Prostaglandin F2α (Item No. 16350) that has been prepared specifically for mass spectrometry and related applications where quantitative reproducibility is required. The solution has been prepared gravimetrically and is supplied in a deactivated glass ampule sealed under argon. The concentration was verified by comparison to an independently prepared calibration standard. This 8-iso Prostaglandin F2α MaxSpec® standard is guaranteed to meet identity, purity, stability, and concentration specifications and is provided with a batch-specific certificate of analysis. Ongoing stability testing is performed to ensure the concentration remains accurate throughout the shelf life of the product. Note: The amount of solution added to the vial is in excess of the listed amount. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately measure volumes for preparation of calibration standards. Follow recommended storage and handling conditions to maintain product quality.

    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}
