Wnt signaling proteins are small secreted proteins that are active in embryonic development, tissue homeostasis, and tumorigenesis.{17947,14336,13185} Wnt proteins bind to receptors on the cell surface, initiating a signaling cascade that leads to β-catenin activation of gene transcription. IWR-1-endo is a potent inhibitor of the Wnt response, blocking a cell-based Wnt/β-catenin pathway reporter response with an IC50 value of 180 nM.{17505} It inhibits, at 10 μM, Wnt-induced accumulation of β-catenin, leading to proteasomal degradation of this protein through a destruction complex which consists of Apc, Axin2, Ck1, and GSK3β. IWR-1-endo stabilizes the destruction complex, increasing the level of Axin2 protein without changing the levels of Apc or GSK3β.{17505} The IWR compound does not change the de novo synthesis of Axin2, alter the affinity of Axin2 for β-catenin, or inhibit the proteasome. It has a half-life of 60 minutes in murine whole blood and 20 minutes in intact murine hepatocytes.{17948} In in vivo tests, IWR-1-endo inhibits zebrafish tail fin regeneration with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.5 μM.{17948} The IWR-1-exo diastereomer exhibits much less activity against the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and has been used as a control.{17505}

  • 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.
