Epidermal Growth Factor, murine submaxillary gland, is a bioactive polypeptide isolated from the submaxillary gland of mice. This growth factor acts as a mitogen, promoting the proliferation of epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and glial cells under a variety of experimental conditions.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a naturally occurring hormone involved in various physiological processes, such as smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, vasodilation and constriction, blood pressure regulation, and inflammatory regulation.

Eglandulosine is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T124699 and the CAS number is 53508-33-1.

15-deoxy-Δ-12,14-Prostaglandin J2 is a PPARγ agonist.

8-Isoprostaglandin F2α is a natural product for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T37164 and the CAS number is 27415-26-5.

11-Deoxyprostaglandin F2β (11-deoxy PGF2β), an analog of PGF2β, is derived through the cyclooxygenase metabolism of arachidonic acid. PGF2β is known to prompt a dose-dependent secretion of hexose-containing mucin [1] [2] [3].

Prostaglandin B1 (PGB1), a metabolite of Prostaglandin E1, acts as a prostanoid receptor ligand [1] [2].

Calf thymus DNA (DNA from calf thymus, Thymonucleic acid) is a high-quality double-stranded template DNA extracted from the bovine thymus gland, widely used in studying DNA binding anticancer agents and DNA binding agents that regulate DNA structure and function.

Testosterone Propionate is a short acting oil-based injectable formulation of testosterone. Testosterone inhibits gonadotropin secretion from the pituitary gland and ablates estrogen production in the ovaries, thereby decreasing endogenous estrogen levels.

Erythromycin (E-Mycin) is a Macrolide and Macrolide Antimicrobial. The physiologic effect of erythromycin is by means of Decreased Sebaceous Gland Activity.

Acetylcholine Chloride is the chloride salt form of acetylcholine, a synthetic, quaternary amino alcohol with cholinergic properties. Acetylcholine chloride (Pilofrin) mimics the parasympathomimetic effect of the endogenous compound acetylcholine. Administered as an ophthalmic solution, this drug stimulates the cholinoceptors in the sphincter muscle of the iris, causing the pupil to constrict.

Melatonin (Melatonine) is a natural hormone secreted by the pineal gland that activates melatonin receptors. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates the biological clock and also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

L-Allothreonine (L-allo-Threonine) is an essential amino acid in humans. L-Allothreonine is abundant in human plasma, particularly in newborns. Severe deficiency of threonine causes neurological dysfunction and lameness in experimental animals. L-Allothreonine is an immunostimulant which promotes the growth of thymus gland. L-Allothreonine also can probably promote cell immune defense function. L-Allothreonine is highly concentrated in meat products, cottage cheese, and wheat germ.

L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is the major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. L-Thyroxine (NSC 36397) is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.

Deoxycorticosterone (Desoxycortone) is a steroid metabolite produced by the adrenal gland. Deoxycorticosterone is an aldosterone precursor and possesses mineralocorticoid activity.

Cortodoxone (11-Desoxycortisol) is a glucocorticoid steroid hormone that is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of cortisol in the adrenal gland.

7(Z)-Tricosene is an insect pheromone and endogenous metabolite for mating and interspecific recognition.

Syringaresinol diglucoside (Syringaresinol-di-O-glucoside) protects the animals from the stress-induced decreases in sex behaviours and in rectal temperature, the stress-induced failure of retrieval of memory, and the stress-induced enlargement of adrenal gland.

1. Acetylshikonin exhibits weak cytotoxicity against human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with IC5 of over 2 microM, exhibits the antiangiogenic and antitumorigenic effects by suppressing proliferation and angiogenic factors. 2. Acetylshikonin inhibits the generation of NADPH oxidase complex in the activation of respiratory burst of PMNs, but does not directly inhibit the activity of NADPH oxidase already generated. 3. Certain shikonin derivatives(such as Acetylshikonin) act as modulators of the Nur77-mediated apoptotic pathway and identify a new shikonin-based lead that targets Nur77 for apoptosis induction. 4. Acetylshikonin, shikonin, and alkannin have accelerative effect on the proliferation of granulation tissue in rats. 5. Acetylshikonin has inhibitory effect on the edematous response is due neither to the release of steroid hormones from the adrenal gland nor to the glucocorticoid activity, but probably partly to the suppression of mast cell degranulation and partly to protection of the vasculature from mediator challenge. 6. Acetylshikonin induces apoptosis of hepatitis B virus X protein-expressing human hepatocellular carcinoma cells via endoplasmic reticulum stress.

1. Farrerol has antioxidative activity.2. Farrerol modulates TAP and BNBD5 gene expression in mammary gland, enhances bMEC defense against S. aureus infection and could be useful in protection against bovine mastitis. 3. Farrerol inactivates KEAP-1 or act

Bufarenogin (3beta,12beta,14-Trihydroxy-11-oxo-5beta-bufa-20,22-dienolide) is a bufadienolide isolated from parotoid gland secretions of the Cuban endemic toad Peltophryne fustiger. Bufarenogin shows anti-tumor activity.

Hamamelitannin has cytotoxic, and antibiofilm activities. It increases the susceptibility of S. aureus to antibiotic treatment in in vivo Caenorhabditis elegans and mouse mammary gland infection models. It also has a high protective activity on cell damag

10-Methyl Lauric Acid (10-Methyl Dodecanoic Acid) is an alkyl-substituted fatty acid found in the Gram-positive bacterium B. acetylicum and in the mandibular gland secretions of wood ants.
