Coptisine is an isoquinoline alkaloid that has been found in Coptis chinensis and has diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, antiproliferative, and anti‑hypercholesterolemic properties.{47685,52041,47686,50112,50111} It inhibits the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in isolated kidney mitochondria in a 2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA; Item No. 85155) assay (IC50 = 48.93 μM).{47685} Coptisine inhibits acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) but not β-secretase 1 (BACE1) in cell-free enzyme assays (IC50s = 0.8, 5.81, and >100 μM, respectively). It also inhibits indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) in vitro (IC50 = 6.3 μM), as well as organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1), OCT2, and OCT3 in MDCK cells (IC50s = 0.931, 2.27, and 2.27 μM, respectively, for the human transporters).{52041,47686} It inhibits proliferation of A549, H460, and H2170 human lung cancer cells with IC50 values of 18.09, 29.5, and 21.6 μM, respectively.{50112} Coptisine (70.05 mg/kg) decreases total serum cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL-cholesterol levels and increases serum HDL-cholesterol levels in Syrian golden hamsters fed a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet.{50111}

    CAY10512 – 50 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 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}
