Inhibitor of PDE4 enzyme

Vandetanib is antineoplastic kinase inhibitor that binds to the ATP-binding site of the enzyme squamous cell carcinoma kinase (SQSTM1). This binding inhibits the phosphorylation of the Bcl-2 protein and causes apoptosis. Vandetanib has been shown to have an effect on polymerase chain reaction amplification, terminal erythrocyte differentiation, and on gene expression in human tissue. Vandetanib is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work.

Tadalafil is a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by inhibiting the enzyme PDE, which is responsible for breaking down cGMP, a molecule that relaxes smooth muscle cells in the penis and allows for increased blood flow. Tadalafil has an ability to also act as a channel inhibitor and nerve growth factor inhibitor. Additionally, it is said to aid with pulmonary arterial hypertension by relaxing the blood vessels in the lungs to allow blood to flow more easily. Tadalafil is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

Inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2 kinases

Dabigatran is an anticoagulant that is used for the treatment of atrial fibrillation and prevention of venous thromboembolic events. It is a drug that acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme thrombin. Dabigatran inhibits platelet activation and aggregation, which reduces the risk of stroke or other vascular events. Dabigatran is a prodrug and does not have any activity in its active form. Dabigatran etexilate is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

A prodrug of the DNA-intercalating agent daunorubicin with anti-tumoral activity, used for suicide gene therapy and activity-dependent ablation of cells. Daun02 is an inactive form of the toxin, which gets activated upon cleavage with prodrug-activating enzyme β-galactosidase, yielding daunorubicin. Genetic constructs have been designed carrying the lacZ gene, coding for β-galactosidase, under control of application-specific promoters. The cells expressing the β-gal undergo cell death since the enzyme hydrolizes the prodrug into the active toxin.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitor

Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to reduce inflammation, relieve pain and reduce fever. The mechanism of action of ibuprofen has not been fully elucidated, but it may be due to inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase and thus decreasing the synthesis of prostaglandins allowing a reduction of pain and inflammation. Ibuprofen is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready to use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.

Dihydrocyclosporin A is an immunosuppressant, which is a cyclic undecapeptide derived from fungal metabolites, specifically from the soil fungus Tolypocladium inflatum. This compound functions through the inhibition of calcineurin, which is a crucial phosphatase involved in the activation of T-cells. By binding to the intracellular protein cyclophilin, Dihydrocyclosporin A forms a complex that inhibits calcineurin activity, subsequently blocking the transcription of interleukin-2 and other cytokines essential for T-cell proliferation. The primary use of Dihydrocyclosporin A is in preventing organ transplant rejection, where it helps to maintain graft survival by curtailing the host's immune response against the transplanted organ. Additionally, it may be employed in treating autoimmune diseases, such as psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis, where excessive immune activity causes tissue damage. As an expert in the field, it is crucial to understand the pharmacodynamics and precise molecular interactions that underlie its use, ensuring therapeutic efficacy while minimizing potential adverse effects.

RET receptor tyroine kinase inhibitor

Inhibitor of CK2 protein kinase; anti-proliferative

An active product of vitamin A metabolism. Activates RXR and RAR receptor isoforms with high binding affinity. Induces differentiation of neural stem cells into neurons.

A potent small-molecule activator of UNC-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1), a serine-threonine kinase involved in autophagy. Promotes cytoprotective autophagy in MPP+-treated SH-SY5Y cells, via the ULK complex. Improves motor dysfunction and reduces loss of dopaminergic neurons, mediated by MPTP, in in vivo models of Parkinson’s disease.
