Description

Xanthopterin hydrate, an unconjugated pteridine compound, is the main component of the yellow granule in the Oriental hornet bear wings, produces a characteristic excitation/emission maximum at 386/456 nm[2]. Xanthopterin hydrate(XPT) causes renal growth and hypertrophy in rat[1]. Xanthopterin hydrate inhibits RNA synthesis[4].

In Vitro

Xanthopterin (7.8-250 mM; 24 hours) show a significant reduction in mitochondrial activity with respect to controls (IC50=109 mM)[2].

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.
