Cat. No.: HY-N7101S
Synonyms: U-76-d7,252-d7; CS-807-d7
Cefpodoxime proxetil-d7 (U-76-d7,252-d7; CS-807-d7) is the deuterium labeled Cefpodoxime Proxetil (HY-N7101). Cefpodoxime Proxetil is an orally active broad spectrum third-generation cephalosporin with potent antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including staphylococci, streptococci, Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pnuemoniae, Citrobacter spp, and Proteus spp. Cefpodoxime Proxetil binds to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs), which inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis, finally results in interfering bacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Cefpodoxime Proxetil can be used against skin structure infections, acute otitis media, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, upper respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases .

Lignin Staining Solution (Pianeze Method) is a multichromatic staining solution for plant histology composed of malachite green, Martius yellow and acid fuchsin. Lignin Staining Solution (Pianeze Method) enables lignified secondary walls to appear bright green, non-lignified secondary walls to appear red, and tracheid pit membranes to appear pale red after long-time immersion. Lignin Staining Solution (Pianeze Method) can be used to distinguish lignified cell walls from non-lignified structures and observe the morphology of pit membranes in plant tissue sections such as fern rhizomes. Lignin Staining Solution (Pianeze Method) can be applied to relevant studies on flax wilt and root rot .

Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus is a subclass of carboxylesterases that hydrolyzes the ester linkages between hydroxycinnamic acids and arabinoxylan/pectin polysaccharides in plant cell walls. Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus can hydrolyze ethyl ferulate to release ferulic acid, disrupt plant cell wall structure, promote fiber swelling, and facilitate cellulase hydrolysis. Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus synergizes with xylanase by removing ferulic acid side chains, thereby promoting efficient hydrolysis of xylan into monomers. Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus acts as a virulence factor for Verticillium dahliae VdFAE and Magnaporthe oryzae Fae1, facilitating host infection and colonization. Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus promotes the degradation of cotton GhDFR through binding to its NADPH domain, thereby inhibiting flavonoid-mediated innate immunity and inducing cell death in Nicotiana benthamiana. Feruloyl esterase, Acetivibrio cellulolyticus can be used in studies related to verticillium wilt and rice blast .

Target:  

Fungal Bcl-2 Family

Research Areas:  

Infection

Decyl gallate is an antifungal (fungal) agent. Decyl gallate downregulates the expression of the pro-apoptotic (apoptosis) protein Bak, upregulates the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, and inhibits DNA damage. Decyl gallate disrupts ALG12-mediated N-glycosylation, overactivates the UPR pathway, and simultaneously reduces fungal cell wall enzyme activity, chitin levels, mitochondrial activity, budding ability, cell viability, and host cell adhesion capacity. Decyl gallate reduces inflammatory responses induced by fungal infection and disrupts fungal membrane structure. Decyl gallate can be used in studies related to paracoccidioidomycosis and invasive fungal infections .

Antibiotics are types of antimicrobial products used for the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections. Antibiotics can kill or inhibit bacterial growth. Although the target of an antibiotic is bacteria, some antibiotics also attack fungi and protozoans. However, antibiotics rarely have an effect on viruses. The major mechanism underlying antibiotics is the inhibition or regulation of enzymes involved in cell wall biosynthesis, nucleic acid metabolism and repair, protein synthesis, or disruption of membrane structure. Many of these cellular functions targeted by antibiotics are most active in multiplying cells. Since there is often overlap in these functions between prokaryotic bacterial cells and eukaryotic mammalian cells, it is not surprising that some antibiotics have also been found to be useful as anticancer agents.

MCE supplies a unique collection of 748 antibiotics, including penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines, macrolides, etc. MCE Antibiotics Library is a useful tool for anti-bacterial or anti-cancer drugs discovery.

Antifungal agent 176 is an antifungal agent. Antifungal agent 176 disrupts the cell wall and cell membrane integrity of Phomopsis sp., leading to electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde accumulation. Antifungal agent 176 induces dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential in Phomopsis sp., indicating impaired mitochondrial function. Antifungal agent 176 exhibits protective efficacy against kiwifruit soft rot caused by Phomopsis sp. Antifungal agent 176 can be used in studies related to Phomopsis sp. infections such as kiwifruit soft rot .

The high rates of morbidity and mortality caused by fungal infections are associated with the current limited antifungal arsenal and the high toxicity of the compounds. Additionally, identifying novel drug targets is challenging because there are many similarities between fungal and human cells. The most common antifungal targets include fungal RNA synthesis and cell wall and membrane components, though new antifungal targets are being investigated. Nonetheless, fungi have developed resistance mechanisms, such as overexpression of efflux pump proteins, overexpression and changes in drug targets and biofilm formation, emphasizing the importance of discovering new antifungal drugs and therapies. Due to the limited antifungal arsenal, researchers have sought to improve treatment via different approaches, such as the combination of antifungal drugs, development of new formulations for antifungal agents and modifications to the chemical structures of traditional antifungals, etc.

MCE offers a unique collection of 585 compounds with validated antifungal activities. MCE antifungal compound library is an effective tool for drug repurposing screening, combination screening and biological investigation.
