- Product Overview:
Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) are a diverse family of low molecular weight PLA2s with tissue-specific expression patterns and actions.{23479} The group IIA sPLA2 (sPLA2-IIA) was originally purified from platelets and exudates from patients with rheumatoid arthritis.{23479} Its expression can be induced by inflammatory mediators, and mouse studies suggest that it may play roles in colorectal polyposis, atherosclerosis, and bacterial infections.{23479,23478} YM-26734 is a derivative of a compound isolated from the fruit of H. amygdaline that competitively inhibits rabbit platelet sPLA2 with an IC50 value of 85 nM.{28705} It inhibits sPLA2-hGIIA, -mGIIA, -rGIIA, -hGV, -mGV, -hGX, and -mGX with IC50 values of 80, 30, 120, 110, 520, >1600, and >1600 nM, respectively.{28706,28707} YM-26734 displays minimal activity at cytosolic PLA2, COX and lipoxygenase.{28705} At 45 µg/ear or 11 mg/kg i.v., YM-26734 has been used to ameliorate local inflammatory responses in TPA-induced mouse ear edema.{28705}
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.
