Tau Protein

Tau is well established as a microtubule-associated protein in neurons. They have roles primarily in maintaining the stability of microtubules in axons and are abundant in the neurons of the central nervous system (CNS). However, under pathological conditions, aberrant assembly of tau into insoluble aggregates is accompanied by synaptic dysfunction and neural cell death in a range of neurodegenerative disorders, collectively referred to as tauopathies.

    Hydromethylthionine dihydrobromide
    		Inhibitor
    Hydromethylthionine dihydrobromide (Leukomethylene blue dihydrobromide) is a potent inhibitor of TAU protein aggregation. Hydromethylthionine dihydrobromide reduces neurodegeneration by interacting with TAU proteins and preventing them from forming neurotoxic aggregates. Hydromethylthionine dihydrobromide can be used in the study of Alzheimer's disease and other TAU related disorders.

    BF-170
    		Ligand
    BF-170 is a selective tau fibril binding agent with an EC50 of 221 nM. It exhibits good blood-brain barrier permeability, and after intravenous injection in mice, the concentration in brain tissue reaches 9.1% ID/g within 2 minutes (with a brain clearance rate of 0.25% ID/g after 30 minutes). BF-170 can be used as a probe for tau protein pathology imaging in Alzheimer's disease (AD). It plays an important role in early-stage AD research and holds potential for imaging studies of tau-related neurodegenerative diseases.

    Quercetagitrin (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Quercetagitrin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Quercetagitrin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Quercetagitrin (Quercetagetin-7-O-glucoside) is a natural product that can be isolated from the African marigold (Tagetes erecta). Quercetagitrin has anti-inflammatory activity. Quercetagitrin inhibits Tau accumulation. Quercetagitrin can reverse neuroinflammation and cognitive deficits in P301S-Tau transgenic mouse model through inhibiting NF-κB activation. Quercetagitrin is a dual-target inhibitor of PTPN6 (IC50 = 1 μM) and PTPN9 (IC50 = 1.7 μM). Quercetagitrin enhances glucose uptake by mature C2C12 myoblasts. Quercetagitrin can be studied in research for Alzheimer’s disease and type 2 diabetes.

    Verbenalin (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Verbenalin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Verbenalin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Verbenalin is an orally active terpenoid glycoside that can be extracted from the medicinal plant Verbena officinalis. Verbenalin has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and neuroprotective effects. Verbenalin has a strong binding affinity to the nsp-12 protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Verbenalin can be used in the research of inflammatory and nervous system diseases such as hepatitis and Alzheimer's disease.

    scrambled IONIS-MAPTRx sodium
    		Control
    Scrambled IONIS-MAPTRx (sodium) is a scrambled sequence of IONIS-MAPTRx sodium (HY-132582C). Scrambled IONIS-MAPTRx (sodium) has the same amino acid composition as the active IONIS-MAPTRx sodium fragment, but the sequence is randomly scrambled. Scrambled IONIS-MAPTRx (sodium) is typically used as a negative control. Scrambled IONIS-MAPTRx (sodium) has potential for studying Alzheimer's disease.
