Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is, like nitric oxide, an important gaseous mediator that has significant effects on the immunological, neurological, cardiovascular and pulmonary systems of mammals. Sodium hydrogen sulfide is an H2S donor commonly used in cellular and whole animal experimental systems. For example, it has...

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...

Diets high in fiber contain plant lignan species that may be directly responsible for some observed health benefits of these diets. Enterolactone is an enterobacterial breakdown product of plant lignans that is absorbed and can be measured in human serum. Enterolactone and other lignans and phytoestrogens have been...

Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) is the major carrier of cholesterol in the blood, accounting for more than 60% of total plasma cholesterol. LDL is taken up by hepatic and extrahepatic tissues through LDL receptor-mediated endocytosis where it is internalized and degraded to free cholesterol and amino acids. Uptake of...

Casein Kinase 2 (CK2) is a serine/threonine-selective protein kinase involved in many signal transduction pathways. CK2 is known to negatively regulate apoptosis, and its activity is increased in many proliferating tissues and tumors, which lends promise as an anticancer drug target. NSC 210902 inhibits CK2 with an...

Resolvins are a family of potent lipid mediators derived from both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, Cay-90110) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, Cay-90310). In addition to being anti-inflammatory, resolvins promote the resolution of the inflammatory response back to a non-inflamed state. Resolvin D1 (RvD1) is produced...

The biological effects of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) are transduced by at least two 7-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors, designated DP1 and CRTH2/DP2. In humans, CRTH2/DP2 is expressed on Th2 cells, eosinophils, and basophils where it mediates the chemotactic activity of PGD2. CAY10595, as a racemic mixture, is...

Phytomonic acid is a saturated fatty acid found mainly in a gram-negative bacteria, L. arabinosus, but also in protozoa and in the seed oil of B. coccineus (Connaraceae). Its cyclopropane ring structure has some properties of a double bond, and it may serve to regulate cell membrane fluidity.Formal Name:...
