SILAC Reagents
Stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) is the most commonly used method for quantitative proteomic analysis, thanks to its simplicity and high reproducibility. It was first used in quantitative proteomics by Ong et al. from the Mann Laboratory in Denmark in 2022. It can provide accurate relative quantification without any chemical derivatization or other operations, and is widely used in research on cell biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, etc [1][2].

L-Glutamine-1-13C is the 13C-labeled L-Glutamine (HY-N0390). L-Glutamine is an orally active nutritional agent and cellular metabolism regulator. L-Glutamine is taken up in a Na+-dependent manner and targets multiple key molecules including glutaminase, mTORC1, NF-κB, STAT-3 and HIF-1α. L-Glutamine enhances glutaminolytic catabolism, drives the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate, thereby regulating gene expression, integrating metabolic signals, mediating glutamine flux and maintaining redox homeostasis. L-Glutamine also promotes cell proliferation, osteogenic differentiation and fracture healing, exerts neuroprotective and cardioprotective effects, and inhibits osteoarthritis. L-Glutamine can be applied to research related to osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, ischemic stroke and acute cantharidin-induced cardiotoxicity.
