Glipizide is a hypoglycemic agent.{46791} It inhibits ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in primary mouse pancreatic β cells (IC50 = 6.4 nM). Glipizide induces insulin release from isolated rat pancreatic tissue with an EC50 value of 40 nM.{46792} Dietary administration of glipizide (5 mg/kg per day for 10 days) increases the number of insulin receptors on isolated and purified mouse liver plasma membranes.{46793} It reduces plasma glucose and triglyceride, but not total cholesterol, levels and increases plasma insulin levels in a rat model of diabetes induced by a high-fat diet and streptozotocin (STZ; Item No. 13104) when administered orally at a dose of 5 mg/kg.{46794} Formulations containing glipizide have been used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 50 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 powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 250 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}
