The biology of highly reactive oxygen radical species is of great interest in many biomedical research disciplines, including neurodegeneration, aging, cancer, and infectious diseases.{9477} There are a number of fluorescent reagents, such as 2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCDHF), that can be used to detect free radicals, but they have significant limitations due to their facile oxidation by light and numerous non-radical oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).{12088} HPF is a cell-permeable aromatic amino-fluorescein derivative that has little intrinsic fluorescence.{11242} It undergoes oxidation only by highly reactive oxygen species (hROS) such as the hydroxyl radical, peroxynitrite, and hROS generated from a peroxidase/H2O2 system. It is inert to hypochlorite ion, nitric oxide, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide, and other oxidants. Upon oxidation, HPF is converted to the highly fluorescent molecule fluorescein, with excitation/emission maxima of 490/515 nm, respectively, allowing the simple direct detection of highly reactive biological radicals.

  • 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}
