β-Eudesmol is a sesquiterpene that has been found in a variety of plants, including Cannabis, and has diverse biological activities.{42303,36865} It is a noncompetitive antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) that decreases the open time and opening frequency of nAChR channels when used at concentrations of 40 and 80 µM and increases the decay phase of depolarization when used at a concentration of 100 µM in isolated mouse diaphragm muscle.{36866} β-Eudesmol (50-100 µM) inhibits VEGF- and bFGF-induced proliferation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).{36867} It also inhibits proliferation of HeLa, SGC-7901, and BEL-7402 cells when used at concentrations ranging from 10 to 100 µM and reduces tumor growth in H22 and S-180 mouse tumor models when administered at doses ranging from 2.5 to 5 mg/kg. β-Eudesmol is an agonist of the transient receptor potential (TRP) receptor subtypes TRPA1, TRPV3, and TRPM8 and increases food intake and plasma levels of ghrelin in rats.{36868,36869}

  • 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.

    CAY10512 – 500 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}
