Protease-Activated Receptor-1, PAR-1 Agonist corresponds to PAR1 tethered ligand and which can selectively mimic theactions of thrombin via this receptorIn VitroProtease-Activated Protease-Activated Receptor-1, PAR-1 Agonist is a selective proteinase-activated receptor1 (PAR-1) agonist peptide. Protease-Activated Receptor-1, PAR-1 Agonist corresponds to PAR1 tethered ligand and which can selectively mimic theactions of thrombin via this receptorIn VitroProtease-Activated Receptor-1, PAR-1 Agonist induces activation of protein kinase C isoenzymes alpha and epsilon in human HT-29 colon carcinoma cells expressing PAR1 endogeneously. On the cellular level, Protease-Activated Receptor-1, PAR-1 Agonist and thrombin prompted HT-29 cell migration and matrix adhesion by a PKCepsilon-dependent mechanism as concluded because of the inhibition of PAR1-mediated effects by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I and the PKCepsilon translocation inhibitory peptide EAVSLKPT but not by the PKC inhibitor Gö 6976. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.Form:SolidIC50& Target:PAR-1...

Appears to play a role in wound healing by up-regulating, in skin fibroblasts, the expression of a number of genes involved in angiogenesis, inflammation and matrix remodeling including VEGA-A, VEGA-C, MMP1, MMP3, TIMP1, uPA, PAI-1 and integrins alpha-3 and alpha-5. CYR61-mediated gene regulation is dependent on heparin-binding. Down-regulates the expression of alpha-1 and alpha-2 subunits of collagen type-1. Promotes cell adhesion and adhesive signaling through integrin alpha-6/beta-1, cell migration through integrin alpha-v/beta-5 and cell proliferation through integrin alpha-v/beta-3.Banckground:Cyr61, also known as CCN1, is a 40-45 kDa matricellular glycoprotein that plays an important role in cellular adhesion and migration (1). Cyr61 consists of an IGFBP domain, a VWF type C domain, a TSP type I domain, and a cysteine knot domain (2). Mature human Cyr61 shares 93% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat Cyr61. It is widely expressed during development and in adult tissues (2, 3). Cyr61 associates with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and with many cell surface molecules including Integrins alpha V beta 3, alpha V beta 5, alpha M beta 2, and alpha 6 beta 1, Syndecan-4, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (1, 3). Cyr61 mediates the adhesion and migration of multiple cell types and also promotes vascular endothelial cell tubule formation (4-6). Plasmin cleavage of ECM-bound Cyr61 releases a 28 kDa N-terminal fragment which retains the ability to promote endothelial cell migration (7). Cyr61 exhibits both tumorigenic and tumor suppressor properties. It is up-regulated and promotes tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, and metastasis in breast, renal, gastric, squamous cell, and colorectal carcinomas as well as in glioma (8-12). In contrast, whendown-regulated, it suppresses tumor growth in endometrial, hepatic, and non-small cell lung cancers (8, 13, 14). Cyr61 is also up-regulated in injured skin and bone where it induces the expression of growth factors, cytokines, proteases, and integrins involved in wound repair (15, 16)...

It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Purity:>98%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description:Heme oxygenase (HMOX) is the rate limiting enzyme in heme catabolism. It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. The mechanism of HMOX is unique in that heme serves as the substrate of the enzyme and as the prosthetic group for the activation of iron-bound O2. HMOX activity is highest in spleen where senescent erythrocytes are sequestered and destroyed. Two isoforms, HMOX1 and HMOX2, are expressed in most tissues. HMOX1 is an inducible enzyme in response to heme, heavy metals, oxidative stress, cytokines, and many drugs. Whereas HMOX2 displays a constitutive expression. HMOX1 is expressed mainly in spleen, liver, and kidney, and HMOX2 is prominently expressed in the brain and testes. The increased expression of HMOX1 levels is related to a variety of pathological states, where it functions as a cytoprotective molecule through its by products. HMOX1 also plays important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis... Read More |
