VU0409551 is a positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5).{29045} It induces calcium mobilization in HEK293 cells expressing human mGluR5 (EC50 = 260 nM). It is selective for mGluR5 over mGluR1-4 and mGluR6-8 at 10 μM. VU0409551 reverses amphetamine-induced hyperlocomotion in rats (ED50 = 23 mg/kg), indicating antipsychotic-like activity.{29045} It increases levels of c-fos and expression of BDNF, Arc/Arg3.1, syntaxin 1A, and post-synaptic density-95 (PSD-95) in the hippocampus in the BACHD mouse model of Huntington’s disease when administered at a dose of 3 mg/kg.{48494} VU0409551 (3 mg/kg) also improves object location memory in the novel object location test and associative memory in the cued fear conditioning test in the BACHD mouse model.

  • 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}

    CAY10512 – 10 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}
