4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol is a phenol and an aglycone form of gastrodin (Item No. 28828) that has been found in Gastrodia and has diverse biological activities.{52695,52696,52698,52697} It inhibits LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreases inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), but not COX-2, levels in RAW 264.7 cells when used at concentrations of 0.5 and 1 mM.{52696} 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol (1.5 and 4.5 mg/animal) reduces exudate volume and leukocyte infiltration in a rat model of carrageenan-induced air pouch inflammation, and inhibits acetic acid-induced writhing in mice when administered at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg. It reduces infarct volume and the number of TUNEL-positive neurons in the ipsilateral cortex in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia induced by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg.{52698} 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol (50 and 100 mg/kg) increases the number of entries into, and the percentage of time spent in, the open arms of the elevated plus maze in mice, indicating anxiolytic-like activity.{52697}

  • 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.
