Magnolin is a lignan originally found in M. fargesii that has anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities.{43313} It inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in BV-2 cells (IC50 = 20.5 µM).{43314} Magnolin inhibits ERK1 and ERK2 (IC50s = 87 and 16.5 nM, respectively) and EGF-induced NF-κB transactivation activity when used at concentrations of 30 and 60 µM.{43316} It suppresses migration of JB6 C141 cells in a concentration-dependent manner and decreases markers of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in A549 cells. Magnolin decreases phosphorylation of Akt, increases caspase-3 levels, and upregulates p53 and p21 in PC3 and DU145 prostate cancer cells.{43315} It inhibits proliferation, halts the cell cycle, and induces apoptosis in PC3 and DU145 cells when used at concentrations of 50 and 100 µM. Magnolin also reduces tumor growth and increases apoptosis of tumor cells in a PC3 prostate cancer mouse xenograft model when administered at a dose of 50 µmol/kg.

    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.

  • PtdIns-(3

    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) – 50 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}
