Entacapone-d10 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of entacapone (Item No. 14153) by GC- or LC-MS. Entacapone is a reversible catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor (IC50s = 10, 10, 20, and 160 nM for rat duodenum, brain, erythrocyte, and liver COMT, respectively).{42398} It is selective for COMT over monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and MAO-B and phenolsulphotransferase M (PST-M) and PST-P (IC50s = >50 µM). Entacapone (10 mg/kg), in combination with L-DOPA (Item No. 13248) and carbidopa (Item No. 23783), reduces 3-O-methyldopa (3-OMD) levels in the rat striatum and hypothalamus to 52 and 27%, respectively, of the levels in control animals receiving only L-DOPA and carbidopa.{22703} In a 6-OHDA rat model of Parkinson’s disease, entacapone (10 mg/kg), in combination with L-DOPA and benserazide (Item No. 20298), increases contralateral turning behavior and striatal extracellular dopamine levels.{42399} Entacapone also inhibits contraction of colon longitudinal muscle explants from a 6-OHDA rat model of Parkinson’s disease (EC50 = 200 µM).{42400} Formulations containing entacapone have been used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 100 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.

  • 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 – 10 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.
