Rediocide A
Rediocide A, an insecticide, can inhibit calcium mobilization in Drosophila G-protein- coupled receptors (GPCR)s other than methuselah, it can induce GPCR desensitization and internalization, and such effects are mediated by the activation of conventional protein kinase C. Rediocide A possesses potent activity against fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) in an artificial membrane feeding system and exhibited LD(90) values ranging from 0.25 to 0.5 ppm.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to
24 months(2-8C).
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20C. Generally, these will be useable for up to two weeks. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the natural compounds adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.

Acaricidal daphnane diterpenoids from Trigonostemon reidioides (KURZ) CRAIB roots.[Pubmed:
15684528]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
A new daphnane diterpenoid, rediocide F (1), was isolated together with three known compounds, Rediocide A (2), rediocide C (3) and rediocide E (4), from the hexane extract of Trigonostemon reidioides roots by bioassay-guided fractionation for acaricidal activity on Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Thai common house dust mite. The structure of rediocide F (1) was established as the demethyl analog of rediocide C (3) on the basis of spectral analysis.
CONCLUSIONS:
Compounds 1-4 exhibited potent activity against D. pteronyssinus with respective LC50 values of 2.53, 0.78, 5.59 and 0.92 microg/cm2.

Rediocide A, an Insecticide, induces G-protein-coupled receptor desensitization via activation of conventional protein kinase C.[Pubmed:
22650618]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
In order to identify small-molecule antagonists of Methuselah (Mth), a Drosophila G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) involved in life-span control, a library of natural compounds was screened, and it was found that Rediocide A (1), a daphnane ester from the roots of Trigonostemon reidioides and used currently for flea control, potently inhibited calcium mobilization mediated by this receptor. Compound 1 inhibited calcium mobilization in GPCRs other than Mth, indicating that the inhibitory effect was not due to receptor antagonism but rather to a more general mechanism.
CONCLUSIONS:
It was found that 1 can induce GPCR desensitization and internalization, and such effects were mediated by the activation of conventional protein kinase C.

Rediocides B-E, potent insecticides from Trigonostemon reidioides.[Pubmed:
14987064]
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Four new congeners, rediocides B-E (2-5), of the previously reported Rediocide A (1) were isolated from a methanol extract of the roots of the plant Trigonostemon reidioides. The structures of these minor analogues were elucidated by comparison of their NMR and mass spectral data with those of Rediocide A and confirmed by extensive 2D NMR spectral analysis.
CONCLUSIONS:
They all possess potent activity against fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) in an artificial membrane feeding system and exhibited LD(90) values ranging from 0.25 to 0.5 ppm.
