Artemisinic acid is a sesquiterpene that has been isolated from A. annua.{41903} It has been used in the synthesis of the antimalarial agent artemisinin (Item No. 11816).{41904} Artemisinic acid (50-400 µM) decreases triglyceride levels and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity in human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) in a dose-dependent manner and inhibits adipocyte differentiation when used at a concentration of 200 µM.{41905} It reduces mRNA expression and protein levels of C/EBPα, C/EBPδ, and PPARγ as well as the ratio of phosphorylated JNK to JNK in hAMSCs. Artemisinic acid also decreases C/EBPα and HMG-CoA reductase mRNA expression and inhibits cholesterol synthesis and melanogenesis in human epidermal melanocytes.{41906}

    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.
