Cetirizine is a bioactive carboxylated metabolite of hydroxyzine (Item No. 24039) that acts as a selective histamine H1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 10 nM).{15199,31604} As a second generation antihistamine, it is non-sedating due to low lipophilicity, which prevents blood-brain barrier transit.{31603} Cetirizine is a racemic mixture composed of equal amounts of two enantiomers, (R)-cetirizine (Item No. 23992) and (S)-cetirizine, with pharmacological activity residing primarily in the (R) isomer.{31604} Cetirizine inhibits eosinophil chemotaxis and leukotriene B4 (LTB4; Item No. 20110) release independent from H1 antagonism.{31605} It inhibits aerosol histamine-induced bronchospasm in guinea pigs (ED50 = 100 μg/kg, p.o.).{47108} Formulations containing cetirizine have been used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria.

  • 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}

    CAY10512 – 100 mg

    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}

  • 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 – 5 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.
