    Protoporphyrin IX purchased from MCE. Usage Cited in: Genome Biol. 2022 Dec 15;23(1):259.  [Abstract]

    Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX; 0, 5, 15, 25 µM; 2 h) rapidly results in increased nuclear G4 levels in HeLa cells. Immunostaining of G4 using BG4-EGFP (green). The nuclei are stained with DAPI (blue).

    Protoporphyrin IX purchased from MCE. Usage Cited in: Zhonghua Wei Zhong Bing Ji Jiu Yi Xue. 2015 Jul;27(7):568-73.  [Abstract]

    To determine whether the inhibition of caveolin-1 tyrosine residues 14 ( Cav-1-Y14 ) phosphorylation with protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors ( PP2 ) will upregulate heme oxygenase-1 ( HO-1 ) activity to protect against ventilation induced lung injury in vivo of an animal model. The group D1 or D2 receive high tidal volume ventilation for 1 hour or 2 hour respectively, but they are given PP2 1 hour before high tidal volume ventilation. The groups E1 and E2 also receive high tidal volume ventilat

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
