muc5ac

Fudosteine is a novel mucoactive agent and a MUC5AC mucin hypersecretion inhibitor.

1. Obtusifolin has antioxidant properties and improves chemically induced diabetes and its complications by modulation of oxidative stress. 2. Obtusifolin suppresses phthalate esters-mediated bone resorption, thus may be a novel anti-breast-cancer bone me

MUC5AC motif peptide, a 16-amino acid fragment of mucin 5, is a key component in the study of glycoproteins and their biological functions.

1. Prunetin (Prunusetin) significantly reduces serum levels of inflammatory cytokines and mortality in mice challenged with lipopolysaccharide. 2. Prunetin mediates anti-obesity/adipogenesis effects by suppressing obesity-related transcription through a feedback mechanism that regulates the expression of adiponectin, adipoR1, adipoR2, and AMPK. 3. Prunetin and biochanin A are potent reducers of NF-κB and ERK activation, zonula occludens 1 tyrosine phosphorylation, and metalloproteinase-mediated shedding activity, which may account for the barrier-improving ability of these isoflavones. 4. Prunetin significantly suppresses ATP-induced mucin secretion from cultured RTSE cells; Prunetin inhibits the production of MUC5AC mucin protein induced by EGF or PMA from NCI-H292 cells; Prunetin also inhibits the expression of MUC5AC mucin gene induced by EGF or PMA from NCI-H292 cells.

Ambroxol-D5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ambroxol by GC- or LC-MS. Ambroxol (T0920) is an expectorant and active metabolite of bromhexine. It decreases short-circuit currents in electrically stimulated isolated canine tracheal epithelial cells when applied submucosally. Ambroxol (T0920) decreases IL-13-induced production of mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) in primary human airway epithelial cells and inhibits IL-13-induced decreases in the mucociliary transport rate of endogenous particles in the same cells. Ambroxol (T0920) increases phenol red secretion, a marker of expectorant activity, in mice when administered at doses of 30, 60, or 120 mg/kg. Formulations containing ambroxol have been used in the treatment of acute or chronic respiratory conditions.

Guaifenesin-D3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of guaifenesin by GC- or LC-MS. Guaifenesin (T0739) is an expectorant. It inhibits production of mucin 5AC (MUC5AC), reduces mucus viscosity and elasticity, and increases the mucociliary transport rate of endogenous particles in primary human tracheobronchial epithelial cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Guaifenesin (T0739) increases phenol red secretion, a marker of expectorant activity, in rats.3 Formulations containing guaifenesin have been used as expectorants in the treatment of the common cold and chronic bronchitis.

Ensituximab (NEO-102) is a quasi-selective IgG1 monoclonal antibody against the MUC5AC variant with anti-tumour activity that inhibits colorectal and pancreatic cancer.

Obtusifolin (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving Obtusifolin. 1. Obtusifolin has antioxidant properties and improves chemically induced diabetes and its complications by modulation of oxidative stress. 2. Obtusifolin suppresses phthalate esters-mediated bone resorption, thus may be a novel anti-breast-cancer bone metastasis agent. 3. Obtusifolin has beneficial effects on the development of diabetic retinopathy via inhibition of accumulation of oxidatively modified DNA and nitrotyrosine in the retina, can help prevent vision loss in diabetic patients. 4. Obtusifolin and gluco-Obtusifolin produce significant antinociceptive action in rodent behavioral models of inflammatory/neuropathic pain, and that this activity is associated with modulation of neuroinflammation in spinal cord. 5. Gluco-Obtusifolin and its aglycone may be useful for the treatment of cognitive impairment, and that its beneficial effects are mediated, in part, by the enhancement of cholinergic signaling.
