(S)-Flurbiprofen is the COX-active enantiomer of the non-selective COX inhibitor flurbiprofen (Item No. 70250) with IC50 values of 0.48 and 0.47 µM for COX-1 and COX-2, respectively, in guinea pig whole blood.{16202} It inhibits the release of 6-keto prostaglandin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α; Item No. 15210) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2; Item No. 19030) from rat whole blood, gastric mucosa, lung, and jejunal tissue ex vivo in a dose-dependent manner.{43119} (S)-Flurbiprofen (1 nM) inhibits basal and bradykinin-, serotonin-, and histamine-stimulated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release from isolated skin flaps of rat lower hind paws.{43120} It also inhibits release of the neuroinflammatory marker calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP; Item Nos. 24405 | 24725 | 24728) when used at a concentration of 1 μM. In vivo, (S)-flurbiprofen reduces the number of flinches per minute in the formalin test in rats, indicating antinociceptive activity.{43121}

  • A small molecule activator of stem cell renewal that allows the propagation of OG2 mES cells for at least 10 passages in an undifferentiated state; activity is mediated by the combined inhibition of RasGAP and ERK1 with Kd values of 98 and 212 nM

    SC-1 – 1 mg

    The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal. SC-1 is a small molecule activator of stem cell renewal that allows the propagation of OG2 mES cells for at least 10 passages in an undifferentiated state.{14533} The activity of SC-1 is mediated by the combined inhibition of RasGAP and ERK1 with Kd values of 98 and 212 nM, respectively.{14533} Inhibition of RasGAP increases Ras signaling via the PI3-kinase pathway which promotes self-renewal, whereas inhibition of ERK blocks differentiation.

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 25 µg

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
