γ-Mangostin is a xanthone that has been found in G. mangostana and has diverse biological activities.{48253,48254,48255,48256} It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH; Item No. 14805) radicals in vitro with an IC50 value of 23.6 μM.{48253} γ-Mangostin is cytotoxic to HL-60, SMMC-7721, A549, MCF-7, and SW480 cancer cells and BEAS-2B non-cancerous pulmonary epithelial cells in vitro (IC50s = 7.39, 6.57, 10.07, 5.33, 8.4, and 7.43 μM, respectively).{48254} It inhibits LPS-induced expression of IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α in human macrophages in a concentration-dependent manner.{48255} Macrophage-conditioned media from macrophages pre-incubated with γ-mangostin (30 μM) prior to stimulation with LPS has a reduced ability to induce inflammation and insulin resistance in primary human adipocytes. γ-Mangostin (5 and 10 mg/kg) inhibits carbon tetrachloride-induced increases in serum levels of aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and decreases in hepatic superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) activity and glutathione (GSH) content in a mouse model of liver fibrosis.{48256}

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

    (R)-Roscovitine – 10 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) – 50 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}
