Brusatol is a quassinoid that has been found in B. javanica and has diverse biological activities, including antimalarial, lipolytic, antioxidative, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties.{53959,46883,53960,53961} It is active against chloroquine-resistant isolates of P. falciparum (EC50 = 7.58 ng/ml) and induces lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes when used at a concentration of 160 nM.{53959,46883} Brusatol (40 nM) reduces nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) ubiquitination and degradation and Nrf2 target gene expression in A549 lung cancer cells.{53960} It enhances cytotoxicity induced by cisplatin (Item No. 13119) in A549 cells when used at a concentration of 40 nM in vitro and in an A549 mouse xenograft model when administered at a dose of 2 mg/kg. Brusatol also inhibits LPS-induced production of TNF-α, pro-IL-1β, prostaglandin E2 (Item No. 14010), and nitric oxide (NO) in RAW 264.7 macrophages. It reduces diarrhea and the severity of histopathological injury, as well as increases colonic levels of catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), in a mouse model of ulcerative colitis when administered at doses of 0.5 and 1 mg/kg.{53961}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 25 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 small molecule activator of stem cell renewal that allows the propagation of OG2 mES cells for at least 10 passages in an undifferentiated state; activity is mediated by the combined inhibition of RasGAP and ERK1 with Kd values of 98 and 212 nM

    SC-1 – 10 mg

    The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal. SC-1 is a small molecule activator of stem cell renewal that allows the propagation of OG2 mES cells for at least 10 passages in an undifferentiated state.{14533} The activity of SC-1 is mediated by the combined inhibition of RasGAP and ERK1 with Kd values of 98 and 212 nM, respectively.{14533} Inhibition of RasGAP increases Ras signaling via the PI3-kinase pathway which promotes self-renewal, whereas inhibition of ERK blocks differentiation.
