VU036172 is a positive allosteric modulator of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5; Ki = 195 nM).{47575} It is selective for mGluR5 over mGluR1, mGluR3, and mGluR4 at 10 µM. VU036172 (20 and 50 µM) prevents TNF-α and nitric oxide (NO) production by IFN-γ- or LPS-stimulated BV-2 and primary microglial cells.{47576} It reduces the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and increases the expression of Ym1 and arginase 1 in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells when used at a concentration of 20 µM. VU036172 (50 mg/kg) reduces the size of cortical lesions, prevents neuronal degeneration, and improves sensorimotor deficits in the beam walk test in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury (TBI), indicating improved recovery of motor function.

  • 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}
