Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose (Standard) (UDP-D-Glucose (Standard)) is the analytical standard of Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucose (HY-113044). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Uridine 5’-diphosphoglucose (UDP-glucose), secreted by cardiomyocytes during ischemia and reperfu, is a potent agonist of the proinflammatory P2Y14 receptor. It acts an important role in the regulation of inflammation and neutrophil polarization in neutrophils. Uridine 5’-diphosphoglucose is also the precursor of glucose-containing oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids in animal tissues and in some microorganisms. Uridine 5’-diphosphoglucose is promising for research in counteracting myocardial infarction/reperfusion (MIR)-induced inflammation in the heart tissue.

Arachidonic acid (Immunocytophyt) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Arachidonic acid (HY-109590). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid and a major constituent of biomembranes.

Ergosterol (Standard) is the analytical standard of Ergosterol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Ergosterol is the primary sterol found in fungi, with antioxidative, anti-proliferative, and anti-inflammatory effects.

Lithocholic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Lithocholic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Lithocholic acid is a toxic secondary bile acid that can promote intrahepatic cholestasis and promote tumorigenesis. Lithocholic acid is also a FXR antagonist and a PXR/SXR agonist.

Cholic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Cholic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Cholic acid is a major primary bile acid produced in the liver and usually conjugated with glycine or taurine. It facilitates fat absorption and cholesterol excretion. Cholic acid is orally active.

D-Glucose (Standard) is the analytical standard of D-Glucose. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. D-Glucose is the naturally occurring form of glucose and the most abundant monosaccharide. D-Glucose is a critical components of the general metabolism, and serve as critical signaling molecules in relation to both cellular metabolic status and biotic or abiotic stress response.

Glycine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Glycine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS and also acts as a co-agonist along with glutamate, facilitating an excitatory potential at the glutaminergic N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors. Glycine is orally active. Glycine can be used to study cell protection, cancer, neurological diseases, and angiogenesis.

Taurine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Taurine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Taurine, a sulphur-containing amino acid and an organic osmolyte involved in cell volume regulation, provides a substrate for the formation of bile salts, and plays a role in the modulation of intracellular free calcium concentration. Taurine has the ability to activate autophagy in adipocytes.

Ursodeoxycholic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Ursodeoxycholic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Ursodeoxycholic acid (Ursodeoxycholate) is a secondary bile acid issued from the transformation of (cheno)deoxycholic acid by intestinal bacteria, acting as a key regulator of the intestinal barrier integrity and essential for lipid metabolism.
