(±)-α-Tocopherol acetate is an acetate form of (±)-α-tocopherol (Item No. 25985), a biologically active form of vitamin E. It prevents reductions in the percentage of embryos developing into blastocysts and the levels of glutathione (GSH), as well as prevents increases in oxidative stress, in zygotes from mice exposed to heat stress prior to mating when administered to dams prior to heat stress at a dose of 1 g/kg.{48558} (±)-α-Tocopherol acetate (>1,050 IU/kg in the diet) prevents body weight loss and prevents decreases in pulmonary dynamic compliance in mice exposed to sidestream cigarette smoke but not in sham exposure animals.{48559} However, it also increases the levels of IL-1β, IL-4, and IFN-γ in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of sidestream cigarette smoke-exposed, but not sham exposure, mice.

  • A powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 500 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}
