19(R)-Hydroxylated prostaglandins (PGs) occur in µg/ml concentrations in the semen of certain mammalian species, especially primates. In the case of humans, the compounds are primarily of the PGE series, and the hydroxyl stereochemistry is 15(S),19(R). 19(R)-Hydroxylated PGs are also found in the seminal plasma of...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important gaseous mediator, like nitric oxide, that has significant effects on the immunological, neurological, cardiovascular and pulmonary systems of mammals. WSP-5 is a turn-on fluorescent probe for hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Upon reaction with H2S, WSP-5 releases a fluorophore that...

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an extracellular lipid mediator whose major effects are mediated through five distinct G protein-coupled receptors, S1P1/EDG-1, S1P2/EDG-5, S1P3/EDG-3, S1P4/EDG-6, and S1P5/EDG-8. S1P1 is important for vascular development and lymphocyte maturation, migration, and trafficking. CYM...

CL 82,198 is a selective inhibitor of human collagenase-3, also known as matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13), producing 89% inhibition at 10 µg/ml. It is without effect against MMP-1, MMP-9 or TNF-alpha converting enzyme. CL 82,198 is used to evaluate the role of MMP-13 in diverse processes, including cancer cell...

Tenofovir disoproxil is a prodrug of the acyclic nucleoside phosphonate, tenofovir (Cay-13874). Tenofovir is converted by cellular enzymes to tenofovir diphosphate, an obligate chain terminator that inhibits the activity of HIV reverse transcriptase and hepatitis B virus polymerase. Due to its rapid intracellular...

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that promotes the expression of phase I and II xenobiotic chemical metabolizing enzyme genes, including the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP1A1 and CYP1A2. alpha-Naphthoflavone is a flavone that modulates xenobiotic metabolism at...

Indoxyl sulfate is a uremic toxin and a metabolite of tryptophan (Cay-29600). It is formed via sulfation of indoxyl, an intermediate generated from tryptophan by intestinal bacteria, by the sulfotransferase (SULT) isoform 1A1 variant 2 (SULT1A1*2) in the liver. Indoxyl sulfate activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor...

Clinafloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that displays broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and anaerobic pathogens by inhibiting the bacterial regulatory enzyme DNA gyrase (IC50 = 0.92 µg/ml) as well as topoisomerase IV (IC50 = 1.62 µg/ml).Formal Name:...
