Halcinonide is a synthetic glucocorticoid with anti-inflammatory properties.{40483,40484} In a rabbit model of edema, topical application of halcinonide (0.1% w/w) decreases edema by 55% in a reversed passive Arthus skin test (RPA).{40483} Halcinonide (0.1% w/w) inhibits croton oil-induced ear edema by 70.1% and homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) by 88.0% in rats dosed three hours prior to induction of inflammation.{40484} Application of halcinonide (0.1% w/w) to the abraded surface of cecum in rats inhibits leukocyte adhesion (43.3% incidence versus 100% for controls) and lowers the total number of intraperitoneal leukocytes from 270 million to 121 million 3 days post surgery.{40485} It also acts as an agonist at the smoothened (Smo) receptor with an EC50 value of 1,100 nM.{40486} Formulations containing halcinonide have been used to treat inflammatory and corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses.

  • 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.

    CAY10512 – 50 mg

    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. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 µM compared to 20 µM by resveratrol.{14545}
