Ginsenoside Rb2 is a steroid glycoside found in plants of the genus Panax that has diverse biological activities.{24877} It inhibits LPS-stimulated increases in vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) expression in vitro. It dose-dependently reverses LPS-induced decreases in the expression of IκBα in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).{25807} Ginsenoside Rb2 reduces adhesion of THP-1 cells to LPS-stimulated HUVEC cells, also in a dose-dependent manner. Ginsenoside Rb2 reduces UVB-induced cytotoxicity and apoptotic nuclear fragmentation in HaCaT cells.{25810} It also lowers total cholesterol and triacylglycerol in 3T3-L1 adipocytes cultured under high fatty acid conditions to levels comparable to lovastatin (Item No. 10010338).{39216}

  • A powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 100 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}
