The L-type amino acid transporters (LATs) are Na+-dependent neutral amino acid transporters.{30008} They include four members in two sub-families, with LAT1 and LAT2 belonging to solute carrier (SLC) family 7 and LAT3 and LAT4 being members of SLC43.{30008} LAT1 is overexpressed in many tumors and contributes to ribosome biogenesis and cell growth by supporting mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling.{15559} BCH is an inhibitor of LAT1 that blocks the uptake of L-leucine with an IC50 value of 131.5 µM.{30005,30007} It can inhibit all members of the LAT family at a concentration of 10 mM.{30008} In addition to eliminating the uptake of neutral amino acids, BCH suppresses mTORC1 signaling that drives DNA synthesis and cell proliferation.{30008,15559} LAT1 is also essential for the uptake of amino acid-related compounds, like L-DOPA (Item No. 13248), through the blood-brain barrier, and this can be inhibited by BCH.{30007,30006}

    The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells.

  • 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 – 5 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.
