CDy9 is a highly selective fluorescent probe for the detection and isolation of mESC using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. CDy9 allows the detection and isolation of intact stem cells with marginal impact on their function and capabilities. CD
Rooperol is a norlignan derivative with numerous biological activities including immunomodulatory, antitumor, antibacterial, anticonvulsant, and antioxidant activities. It is a novel p38α inhibitor.
8-iso-15(R)-Prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-15(R) PGF2α) is a chemically distinct member within a broad group of prostaglandin-like eicosanoids, produced through the free radical peroxidation of arachidonic acid contained in membrane phospholipids. It represents the C-15 epimer of 8-isoPGF2α, distinguished as the sole isoprostane isomer extensively examined across numerous biological systems.
Neurotensin-related hexapeptide exists in retinal ganglion cells and in their central projections in pigeons and may be utilized as a neuroactive substance by the central terminals of numerous retinal ganglion cells in birds.
FTY720 is a derivative of ISP-1 (myriocin), a fungal metabolite of the Chinese herb Iscaria sinclarii as well as a structural analog of sphingosine. It is a novel immune modulator that prolongs allograft transplant survival in numerous models by inhibiting lymphocyte emigration from lymphoid organs. FTY720 is phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase, which then acts as a potent agonist at four of the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors (S1P1, S1P3, S1P4, and S1P5). Down-regulation of S1P1 receptors on T and B lymphocytes by FTY720 results in defective egress of these cells from spleen, lymph nodes, and Peyer's patch. azido-FTY720 is a highly photoreactive analog of FTY720 that can be used to identify receptor binding sites for this ligand.
