Prostacyclin (PGI2) is a potent vasorelaxant and inhibitor of platelet aggregation. It mediates its actions by binding to a specific G protein-coupled receptor, the IP receptor, on the surface of endothelial cells, arterial smooth muscle, and platelets.{4375} The IP receptor also participates in signal transduction of the pain response, cardioprotection, and inflammation.{5018,9805,8508,5466} MRE-269 is the active form of the prodrug NS-304. It is a potent and selective agonist for the human IP receptor with a Ki value of 20 nM.{14998} In contrast to PGI2, which has a half-life of 30 seconds to a few minutes in vivo, plasma concentrations of MRE-269 remain near peak levels for more than eight hours in rats and dogs.{14998} Unlike the PGI2 analogues, beraprost and iloprost, MRE-269 lacks high affinity for the EP3 receptor.{16443} As a result, MRE-269 induces vasodilation equally in large and small pulmonary arteries, whereas vasodilation of small arteries by beraprost and iloprost is reduced via EP3-mediated vasoconstriction.{16443}

Description

A stable analogue of prostacyclin that potently and selectively activates the IP receptor (Ki = 20 nM); the active form of the prodrug NS-398 that is stable in vivo, as plasma concentrations of MRE-269 remain near peak levels for more than eight hours; exhibits lower affinity for the vasoconstricting EP3 receptor than other IP receptor agonists.

    Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}

  • 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 – 25 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.
