- Product Overview:
Isolated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, which spontaneously beat in culture, are used to evaluate the antiarrhythmic effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA).{21675} In this model, the ?-3 PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 3-10 ?M) reduces the contraction rate of cells, indicating a positive antiarrhythmic effect.{21675} Cytochrome P450 metabolites of EPA are more potent, with 17,18-epoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (17,18-EET) reducing contractions at 30 nM.{18672} CAY10665 is a bioisostere of 17,18-EET which is approximately 50% more effective at reducing arrhythmic contraction frequency, without affecting amplitude, when tested at 30 nM.{19905} This disubstituted oxamide represents a stable analog of 17,18-EET which may be used to study the mechanism of regulation of cardiomyocyte contractility by EPA metabolites.
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.
