Arazine  (Synonyms: N-Acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine)

Arazine (N-Acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine) is a cell-permeable modulator of G protein and G-protein coupled receptor signaling. Arazine can be a a substrate for isoprenylcysteine methyltransferase by competing with prenylated G protein or its receptors site^[1].

Arazine (2 hours) inhibits ATPγS induced CXCL1, CXCL8 and CCL2 production as a dose-dependent manner in HMEC-1 cell^[1].
Arazine (10–100 μM;8 hours) significantly affects the HMEC-1 cell viability as measured by trypan blue exclusion in HMEC-1 cell^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Arazine (AFC) (2,000 μg/20 μl; applied on ear) produces a dose-dependent inhibition of the TPA-induced edema, with the maximal reduction of edema approaching 73%, with a 50% effective dose (ED₅₀) of 55±12 μg/20 μl^[1].
