Leucomethylene blue mesylate (TRx0237 mesylate) 是一种 Methylene blue (亚甲基蓝)的还原形式, 亚甲基蓝是一种化学指示剂和生物染色剂。它是一种具有口服活性的二代 tau 蛋白聚集的抑制剂 (Ki=为0.12 μM),可用于阿尔兹海默症的研究。
BTC AM is a cell-permeable acetoxy-methyl ester of BTC . As BTC AM enters cells, it is hydrolyzed by intracellular esterases to produce BTC. BTC is a low affinity calcium indicator (Kd = 7-26 μM) that displays excitation emission spectra of 401 529 nm, respectively. It exhibits a shift in the excitation maximum from approximately 480 to 401 nm upon calcium binding, enabling determination of ratiometric calcium measurements. BTC is suitable for detecting elevated calcium levels associated with activation of smooth muscle, neurons, and intracellular calcium stores.
True blue is a fluorescent neuronal retrograde tracer that labels the nucleus, nucleolus, cell body, proximal dendrites, and axons of neurons. It displays excitation emission maxima of 373 404 nm, respectively.
