Product Overview:
Echinocystic acid is a triterpene that has been found in G. sinensis and has diverse biological activities.{48377,48378,48379,48380,48381} It induces nuclear translocation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and reduces TNF-α-induced NF-κB signaling in HEK293 cells overexpressing GFP-GR.{48377} Echinocystic acid (12.5, 25, and 50 μM) suppresses RANKL-induced NF-κB activation, ERK phosphorylation, and osteoclastogenesis in mouse bone marrow macrophages (BMMs).{48378} It induces neurite outgrowth in Neuro2A cells in a concentration-dependent manner, an effect that can be blocked by the JNK inhibitor SP 600125 (Item No. 10010466).{48379} In vivo, echinocystic acid (10 mg/kg per day) decreases escape latency in the Morris water maze and increases the length of neurite processes in the hippocampus of aged mice. Topical administration of echinocystic acid reduces expression of COX-2, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), TNF-α, and IL-1β and ear edema induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA; Item No. 10008014) in a mouse model of dermatitis.{48380} Echinocystic acid also recovers reductions in femoral bone mineral density and trabecular thickness and number in a rat model of ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis.{48381}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
