    Tetracycline

     

    In Vitro

    Doxycycline calcium (0.01-10 µg/mL, 4 d) affects growth of glioma cells only under high concentrations[2].
    Doxycycline calcium (0.01-10 µg/mL, 24 h) decreases MT-CO1 protein content with concentrations of 1 µg/mL and higher in SVG cells[2].
    Doxycycline calcium (100 ng/mL, 1 µg/mL; 24 h) reduces proliferation of human cell lines[4].
    Doxycycline calcium (0-250 μM, 72 h) inhibits cell viability of breast cancer cells [5].

    Modeling ON-OFF system for gene expression[6][7]
    Background
    Doxycycline is often used as an inducer in molecular biology research to induce gene expression. In cells or model animals that have constructed a Tetracycline (Tet; HY-A0107) inducible expression (Tet-ON/Tet-OFF) system, the expression of the target gene can be precisely controlled by adding or removing Doxycycline. Doxycycline can act as an inhibitor of transcriptional activation in the Tetracycline (Tc)-controlled transactivation (tTA) system, and as an inducer of transcriptional activation in the "reverse tTA' system. Doxycycline and Tetracycline both act systemically after being absorbed by the upper gastrointestinal tract. In comparison, the main advantage of Doxycycline is that it has a longer activity and can be taken twice or once a day. Although the peak concentrations of the two are similar, Doxycycline takes a shorter time to reach peak concentration and has a significantly longer half-life [6][7][8].
    Specific Modeling Methods
    Rat[8]: male • adult middle-aged (12-month-old) • Sprague-Dawley rats
    Administartion (for GDNF regulation): 3g/kg (Doxycycline; HY-N05655) (dietary with regular food) • po once daily for 6 days • monitored every day
    Note
    1. In this study[7], a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV)-based bicistronic tetracycline (tet)-OFF construct was used for dynamic control of GDNF (target gene) expression during long-term expression.
    2. 3g/kg dietary DOX produced DOX serum levels equivalent to 1mg/ml DOX in drinking water.
    Modeling Indicators
    (1) The expression level of the target gene decreases; (2) The positively correlated phenotype corresponding to the target gene is alleviated.

    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.
