Dexamethasone is a synthetic glucocorticoid that binds the human glucocorticoid receptor with a higher affinity than a natural ligand, cortisol (Kd = 5 nM versus 17 nM, respectively). Through receptor activation, dexamethasone has both transactivating and transrepressing effects on gene expression, producing, in...

(R,S)-Anatabine is an alkaloid that has been found as a minor component in tobacco (Nicotiana). It is an agonist of alpha4beta2 and alpha6/alpha3beta2beta4 subunit-containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs, EC50s = 6.1 and 3.6 µM, respectively). It is selective for alpha4beta2 and alpha6/alpha3beta2beta4...

rPLA2 is a calcium-dependent cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) initially isolated and characterized from bovine and human red blood cells (RBCs). It has a molecular mass of 42 kDa and biochemical properties similar to cPLA2 Type IV. EA4 is a quinone derivative that inhibits rPLA2 with a Ki of 130 µM. It inhibits...

Thromboxane A2 (TXA2) is a potent thrombogenic and vasoconstrictor eicosanoid, produced in large quantities by activated platelets. TXA2 has been implicated as a causal factor in the onset of stroke and myocardial infarction. BM 567 is a dual acting antithrombogenic agent, acting as an inhibitor of thromboxane A2...

N-Oleoyl dopamine (ODA) is a selective, endogenous vanilloid receptor 1 (VR1) agonist isolated from bovine brain. Structurally, it is the amide of oleic acid and dopamine and is therefore a "hybrid" analog which incorporates components of both the anandamide-like and dopamine neurotransmitter pathways. ODA binds to...

Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is an important signal carrier necessary for the proper biological response of cells to hormones, neurotransmitters, and other extracellular signals. Forskolin is a naturally occurring diterpene that is produced by the Indian Coleus plant (C. forskohlii). It directly activates adenylyl cyclase...

A23187 is a calcium ionophore and a microbial metabolite that has been found in S. chartreusensis. It induces calcium overload and mitochondrial apoptosis in HEK293 cells when used at a concentration of 5 µM. A23187 (5 µM) induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and neutrophil extracellular trap...

Delphinidin (chloride) is an anthocyanidin, a natural plant pigment which serves as the precursor of certain anthocyanins that provide the blue-red colors of flowers, fruits, and red wine. Delphinidin induces the release of nitric oxide by vascular endothelium, causing vasorelaxation. It also inhibits signaling...

The transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) receptor is a nonselective cation channel gated by noxious heat, protons, and capsaicin. TRPV1 is present in primary sensory neurons and in both central and peripheral sensory nerve terminals and plays a role in thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia. SB-366791...

all-trans Retinoic acid is a metabolite of vitamin A and a ligand for retinoic acid receptors (RARs) with IC50 values of 9, 3, and 10 nM for RARalpha, RARbeta, and RARgamma, respectively, in radioligand binding assays. It induces expression of a luciferase reporter in COS-7 cells expressing RARalpha, RARbeta, or...
