Δ4-Abiraterone (D4A) is an active metabolite of the CYP17A1 inhibitor abiraterone (Item No. 9002768).{47328} D4A is an androgen receptor antagonist (IC50 = 5.3 nM) that reduces expression of the androgen receptor target genes PSA, TMPRSS2, and FKBP5 in LNCaP, LAPC4, and C4-2 cell lines. It inhibits the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP17A1 by 66.5% when used at a concentration of 1 nM. D4A (10 μM) also blocks SRD5A conversion of Δ4-androstenedione to 5α-androstanedione in LAPC4 cells. In vivo, D4A delays tumor progression in a VCaP mouse xenograft model and increases progression-free survival in a C4-2 mouse xenograft model.

  • 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}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 50 µg

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
