This is a effectively agonistic peptide (mimotope) for diabetogenic T cell clone BDC2.5. It can stimulate BDC2.5 cells with cells showing good response to this mimotope. 1040-31 peptide is specific for BDC2.5 TCR Tg+ (transgenic) T cells. This peptide is also known as p31.

Octadecyl Rhodamine B chloride, also known as RBOE, is a polarity-sensitive dye that is often used as a chromophore with other compounds to stain cell membranes and has applications in the assembly of organic molecules, in membrane structures and in the transfer of electron energy in the structural domains of proteins.

Brandioside shows strong antioxidant, and neuroprotective effects, it significantly attenuates glutamate-induced neurotoxicity at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 microM; it exhibits significant inhibition of advanced glycation end product formation with the IC50 value of 4.6-25.7 μM.
