Inhibitors, Agonists, Screening Libraries www.MedChemExpress.com Immunology/Inflammation The immune system has evolved to survey and respond appropriately to the universe of foreign pathogens, deploying an intricate repertoire of mechanisms that keep responses to host tissues in check. The immune system is typically divided into two categories--innate and adaptive. Innate immunity refers to nonspecific defense mechanisms that come into play immediately or within hours of an antigen's appearance in the body. Adaptive immunity refers to antigen-specific immune response. The antigen first must be processed and recognized, and then the adaptive immune system creates an army of immune cells specifically designed to attack that antigen. For the adaptive immune system, specificity and sensitivity are provided by a large repertoire of antigen T-cell receptors (TCRs) constructed in their extracellular domain to recognize antigenic peptide fragments restricted and presented by histocompatibility complex molecules, and coupled through intracellular domains to signal transduction modules that serve to transmit environmental cues inside the cell. Inflammation is triggered when innate immune cells detect infection or tissue injury. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) respond to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or host-derived damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by triggering activation of NF-κB, AP1, CREB, c/EBP, and IRF transcription factors. Induction of genes encoding enzymes, chemokines, cytokines, adhesion molecules, and regulators of the extracellular matrix promotes the recruitment and activation of leukocytes. Besides resolving infection and injury, chronic inflammation is a risk factor for cancer. Immunity has a major impact on inflammatory diseases and cancer, and biologics targeting immune cells and their factors. Immunosuppressant drugs suppress, or reduce, the strength of the body’s immune system, and have been used in the treatment of organ transplantation or autoimmunine diseases. Immunomodulator drugs have contributed to the significant improvement against cancer and other related diseases. References: [1] Sakaguchi S, et al.

Arginase is present in 2 isoforms: arginase I, the hepatic isoform; and arginase II, the extrahepatic isoform; each of which is encoded by a distinct gene. The expression and function of arginase I in macrophages, hepatocytes, and vascular smooth muscle cells, is stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), IL-13, altered oxygen tension, and balloon dilatation of coronary arteries. The activation and expression of endothelial arginase II can also be induced by a variety of vascular insults. Arginase competitively inhibits nitric oxide synthase (NOS) via use of the common substrate L-arginine. Inhibition of arginase activity enhances a variety of parameters relevant to allergic airways disease, possibly by altering NO homeostasis. Arginase inhibition actively augments NO production and has beneficial effects on normal cardiac function and on vascular dysfunction typical of atherogenesis, aging, and erectile dysfunction, and sickle cell disease. 4 Tel: 609-228-6898 Fax: 609-228-5909 Email: [email protected] Arginase Inhibitors & Modulators Arginase inhibitor 1 BEC hydrochloride Cat.

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor is a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in the regulation of biological responses to planar aromatic (aryl) hydrocarbons, and regulates xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome P450s, most notably cyp 1A1. Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor is a member of the family of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors. AhR binds several exogenous ligands including natural plant flavonoids, polyphenolics and indoles, as well as synthetic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and dioxin-like compounds. AhR is a cytosolic transcription factor that is normally inactive, binding to several co-chaperones. Upon ligand binding to chemicals such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), the chaperones dissociate resulting in AhR translocating into the nucleus and dimerizing with ARNT (AhR nuclear translocator), leading to changes in gene transcription. 6 Tel: 609-228-6898 Fax: 609-228-5909 Email: [email protected] Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Inhibitors & Modulators 1,4-Chrysenequinone AHR antagonist 1 (Chrysene-1,4-dione) Cat.
