- Product Overview:
Tubercidin is a nucleoside analog that has been found in S. tubercidicus and has diverse biological activities.{64535,64536,64537,64538} It is active against S. faecalis (IC50 = 0.02 µM) and cytotoxic to P388 murine leukemia and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells (IC50s = 0.008 and 0.019 µg/ml, respectively).{64535,64536} Tubercidin reduces infection of Calu-3 cells by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2; EC50 = 0.05 µM) but is toxic to A549 cells expressing human ACE2 (A549-ACE2) and Vero cells.{64537} Tubercidin (5 mg/kg per day), in combination with the nucleoside transport inhibitor prodrug NBMPR-P, increases survival in a mouse model of schistosomiasis but is hepato- and nephrotoxic and induces mortality when administered alone at the same dose for four days.{64538}
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.
