- Product Overview:
trans-?-Viniferin is a stilbene polyphenol and dimer of trans-resveratrol (Item No. 70675) that has been found in various red wines and has diverse biological activities.{47517,47518,47519,47520,47521} It induces disaggregation of aggregated amyloid-? (1-42) (A?42; Item No. 20574) fibrils in a cell-free assay and decreases A?42- and IL-1?-induced release of TNF-? and IL-6 in primary mouse neuron and astrocyte cocultures.{47518} trans-?-Viniferin reduces cytotoxicity induced by truncated huntingtin (Htt) in PC12 cells (EC50 = 30 nM).{47519} It also reduces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial dysfunction, and PGC-1? depletion and increases protein levels and deacetylase activity of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) in cells expressing mutant Htt. trans-?-Viniferin inhibits calcium-activated chloride channel currents in HT-29 cells (IC50 = ~1 ?M).{47520} In vivo, trans-?-viniferin (2 ?g per animal) reduces rotavirus-induced secretory diarrhea in mice without affecting the rotaviral infection. Dietary administration of trans-?-viniferin reduces hepatic triglyceride accumulation and body weight increases in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity.{47521}
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.
