  2. AP-1 Nuclear Factor of activated T Cells (NFAT) AMPK Autophagy
  3. Amorphigenin

Amorphigenin is a trothotenone compound. Amorphigenin inhibits osteoclast differentiation by suppressing the expression of c-Fos and NFATc1 in activated T cells. Amorphigenin degrades melanosome proteins by activating the AMPK-dependent autophagy pathway, but not in dependence of the mTOR pathway. Amorphigenin significantly protects bone mass and reduces bone erosion in a mouse model of inflammatory bone loss. Amorphigenin can be used to study inflammatory bone diseases, postmenopausal osteoporosis, and skin pigmentation disorders.

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.
