Product Overview:
Gram negative bacteria utilize N-acylated homoserine lactones to coordinate expression of virulence in response to the density of the surrounding bacterial population in a process termed quorum sensing. By interfering with this communication and thereby disrupting virulence expression, quorum sensing inhibitors are emerging as an alternative to the conventional ways of fighting bacterial infections. Penicillic acid is a mycotoxin produced from Penicillium species identified in molds on corn and other grains. At 80 μM, penicillic acid inhibits bacterial quorum sensing communication in P. aeruginosa by selectively repressing various virulence factor and other quorum sensing-regulated genes.{20838} It has been shown to inhibit Fas-mediated apoptosis at 100-200 μM by targeting caspase-8 activity in Burkitt’s lymphoma Raji cells.{20839}

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.
