Description
Minocycline HCl is a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic. It has been shown to inhibit endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis, MMP-3, PARP, and the replication of HIV and SIV. It has also displayed anti-inflammatory and anti-collagenase activity. Minocycline HCl is freely soluble in aqueous solution.
Tetracyclines are antibiotics made up of a four-ring system. They bind the 30s ribosomal subunit, preventing the aminoacyl-tRNA from attaching to the A site. Consequently, protein synthesis is inhibited.
