Description: 5-(and-6)-Carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate, succinimidyl ester is a useful fluorescent tracer that can passively diffuse into cells and covalently label intracellular proteins, resulting in long-term cell labeling. The reagent itself is colorless and nonfluorescent but becomes brightly green fluorescent once it is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases.

Description: Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) constitute a family of heparin-binding polypeptides involved in the regulation of biological responses such as growth, differentiation and angiogenesis. The biological effects of FGFs are mediated by four structurally related receptor tyrosine kinases denoted FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. FGF-1 is a powerful mitogen of cells of mesodermal, ectodermal and endodermal origin. FGF-1 association with heparan sulfate is a prerequisite for activation of FGF receptors. FGF-1 plays a role in various stages of development and morphogenesis as well as in angiogenesis and wound healing processes. Recent data indicate a role of FGF-1 in inflammation and obesity. FGF-1 is selectively induced in fat cells by high-fat diet feeding and established the PPARgamma-FGF-1 axis as a critical pathway that regulates adipose tissue remodeling.

Description: N-Hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone is a small diffusible signaling molecule involved in quorum sensing, controlling gene expression and affecting cellular metabolism. The diverse applications of this molecule include regulation of virulence in general and in cystic fibrosis, infection prevention, slime and biofilm reduction in commercial agriculture and aquaculture industries, food spoilage prevention and septicemia in fish.

Description: Nonacetylated salicylate. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Reduces pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and related rheumatic conditions. Prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor in vivo. Inactivates cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and -2 (COX-2). IKKbeta/NF-kappaB inhibitor (at significantly higher concentrations than required for COX inhibition). Used to target inflammation in the treatment of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, or rheumatic pain. It reduces blood glucose concentrations in patients with type 2 diabetes, as well as in insulin-resistant patients without diabetes. Reduces blood glucose, triglyceride, free fatty acid and C-reactive protein concentrations, improves glucose utilization and increases circulating insulin and adiponectin concentrations in obese adults at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes as well as for patients with type 2 diabetes. Dimeric prodrug comprising two esterified salicylate moieties. It is advantageous over sodium salicylate because it is insoluble at the acid pH of the stomach and passes suspended but undissolved into the small intestine, sparing the gastric mucosa direct contact.

Description: The amine-reactive fluorescein derivatives are probably the most common fluorescent derivatization reagents for covalently labeling proteins. Carboxyfluorescein is better retained in cells than is fluorescein, its pKa of ~6.5 is lower than the cytosolic pH of most cells (pH ~6.8-7.4). Carboxyfluorescein is commonly employed as a polar tracer.

Description: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a 133 amino acid glycoprotein with one intramolecular disulfide bond and variable glycosylation. It is secreted by activated T cells and induces proliferation and maturation of activated T cells, natural killer cells, and lymphokine activated killer cells. IL-2 also stimulates proliferation of antibody-producing B cells, activates neutrophils, and induces mononuclear cells to secrete IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha and -beta. Moreover, studies have shown that IL-2 is required for activation-induced apoptosis, an important hemeostatic mechanism in the immune system, which is involved in the maintenance of peripheral tolerance to self-antigens.

Description: Cell permeable, non-alkylating, non-thiol, adduct-forming, redox cycling quinone. Intracellular superoxide anion formation/ROS generation inducer. Anticancer agent. Shown to induce cell proliferation, apoptosis, necrosis and necroptosis in vitro, dependent on concentration, time, temperature and cell type. Valuable tool for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in order to study the role of ROS in cell toxicity, apoptosis and necrosis. Useful as reference compound in characterizing the effects of oxidative stress. Can be used to eliminate any mechanistic ambiguity involving redox cycling quinoids as the source of reactive oxidant species/oxidative stress in biological studies.

Description: Cochlin is an extracellular matrix protein expressed in the cochlea and vestibule of the inner ear. Mutations in the cochlin gene are linked to the autosomal-dominant DFNA9 syndrome, a disorder characterized by hearing loss. Cochlin is also expressed in follicular dendritic cells of the spleen and the lymph nodes. The N-terminus of cochlin contains a LCCL domain also present in Factor C, a serine protease of the horseshoe crab Limulus, involved in activating the coagulation cascade in response to LPS. A recent study showed that in response to inflammation, LPS or bacterial infection, cochlin is cleaved by the proteases aggrecanases and secreted into blood circulation. The secreted cochlin (LCCL domain) seems to have a role in local cytokine production, recruitment of immune effector cells and bacterial clearance. Cochlin is secreted as two forms p8 and p18, whereas p18 being the glycosylated form of p8.
