Tangeritin is a polymethoxylated flavone isolated from peels of citrus fruits. It inhibits signaling in cancer cells, reducing ERK phosphorylation and growth of estradiol-stimulated T47D breast cancer cells (IC50 ~ 3 μM){16516} and blocking p38 MAPK, JNK, and Akt activation in interleukin-1β-stimulated human lung carcinoma A549 cells.{16517} Tangeritin activates the pregnane X receptor, inducing MDR1 expression in human colonic LS180 cancer cells at a concentration of 10 μM.{16518} It also inhibits growth of tumors and tumor implantation in lungs of mice inoculated with murine melanoma B16F10 cells.{16519} Tangeritin has been shown to protect against tunicamycin-induced cell death in isolated murine insulinoma MIN6 cells and in renal tubular epithelium in mice at a concentration of 10 μM.{16520} More recently, tangeritin has been found to significantly reduce serum total and LDL cholesterol and triacylglycerols in hypercholesteremic hamsters.{16521}

  • A potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM; also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H

    (R)-Roscovitine – 5 mg

    Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}

  • 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}
