Endocannabinoids such as 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG; Item No. 62160) and arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA; Item No. 90050) are biologically active lipids that are involved in a number of synaptic processes including activation of cannabinoid (CB) receptors. Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) mediate the hydrolysis of AEA and 2-AG, respectively. MAGL inhibitor 21 selectively binds to MAGL (Ki = 0.4 µM) and reversibly blocks the enzyme’s activity in mouse brain with an IC50 value of 0.18 µM.{27369} Comparatively, MAGL inhibitor 21 is reported to inhibit FAAH activity in mouse brain with an IC50 value of 59 µM.{37369} This compound does not bind CB1 or CB2 receptors and does not inhibit the related serine hydrolases ABHD6 and ABHD12 (Kis > 10 µM).{27369} In a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, 5 mg/kg of MAGL inhibitor 21 has been used to ameliorate progression of the disease without producing detrimental CB1-mediated effects.{27369}

  • 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}

  • 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}

    CAY10512 – 100 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}
