General description

Doxycycline Hyclate, a synthetic tetracycline antibiotic, demonstrates broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against various bacteria by binding to the 30S and potentially the 50S ribosomal subunits. This binding disrupts the aminoacyl-tRNA binding to the mRNA-ribosome complex, effectively inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby halting growth and replication.

Beyond its antimicrobial effects, Doxycycline Hyclate serves as an inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), enzymes crucial for collagen breakdown in connective tissues. Studies on corneal erosion and rheumatoid arthritis showcase its significant reduction in MMP-9 and MMP-8 levels, respectively. This MMP-inhibiting property helps preserve collagen integrity, preventing excessive tissue degradation and supporting tissue repair.

In cell biology, Doxycycline Hyclate impacts smooth muscle cells, enhancing adhesion and influencing the reorganization of fibrillar collagen matrices. Its influence on apicoplast gene expression in Plasmodium falciparum, the malaria-causing parasite, adds a dimension of significance in infectious disease research. Additionally, the inhibition of tissue formation in rat studies contributes to its relevance in understanding tissue development.

Moreover, Doxycycline Hyclate holds potential in metabolomics research, considering its multi-faceted effects on various cellular processes. In the broader context of biochemical research, its versatile actions make it a valuable tool for investigating molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways.

Application

Doxycycline hyclate has been used for the induction of glioma cells[1] and human embryonic kidney 293T cells (HEK293T).[2]
Doxycycline hyclate is a synthetic oxytetracycline derivative. It has been used to eliminate Borrelia burgdorferi and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in rodent reservoirs and to eliminate Ixodes scapularis ticks[3]. It is a broad spectrum inhibitor used to inhibit matrix metalloproteinases[4] (MMP), such as type 1 collagenase in studies on wound healing and tissue remodeling.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mode of Action: Doxycycline hyclate inhibits the inflammatory response to the Lyme Disease Spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi.

Activity Spectrum: Effective against a broad spectrum inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases in vivo.

Features and Benefits

  • High-quality antibiotic suitable for multiple research applications
  • Ideal for Cell Biology, Metabolomics, and Biochemical research.

Questions

1–10 of 12 Questions  
  1. Does this powder if stored in dark at 4 degree expires? Doxycycline hyclate, Product D9891

    1 answer
    1. This product is assigned an expiration date of 4 years from the date of Quality Release. The expiration date is lot specific and reported on the product label and the Certificate of Analysis. The recommended storage temperature range is 2 - 8°C. Please see the link below to review additional information available in the product datasheet:

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  3. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  4. What is the expiration date of Doxycycline hyclate(powder, not solution) from the date of purchase?

    1 answer
    1. This product is not assigned an expiration date. It is assigned a recommended retest date of approximately 3.5 years after the quality release date. A recommended retest date is the period of time during which the product is expected to remain within established stability specifications, provided that it has been stored under defined conditions. After the Retest Date, product samples should be examined to ensure that the product is still in compliance with the established specifications. For more information, you may access the "Product Dating Information" document under "ADDITIONAL USEFUL DOCUMENTS ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS" at the bottom of the Quality Services page with this link: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/US/en/life-science/quality-and-regulatory-management/quality-services.
