Product Overview:
Baccatin III is a polycyclic diterpene originally isolated from the yew tree (Taxus) that is a precursor of paclitaxel (Item No. 10461).{37435,37436} Baccatin III induces apoptosis in JR4-Jurkat leukemia, HepG2 liver hepatocellular carcinoma, HeLa cervical, OVCAR-3 ovarian carcinoma, and T47D breast cancer cell lines (IC50s = 3.5, 3, 4, 5, and 2 μM, respectively).{37437} It dose-dependently increases the antigen presenting cell (APC) capacity of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BM-DCs) sensitized to OVA peptide but does not affect their phagocytic activity.{37438} Baccatin III (0.5 mg/kg per day) decreases tumor growth of 4T1 mammary carcinoma and CT26 colon carcinoma flank implants by 65.6 and 63.9%, respectively, as well as inhibits the accumulation and activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in spleen in immunocompetent mice.{37439}

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.
