De Minimis - 1170 / 3

The lipid messenger ceramide is converted to glucosylceramide by glucosylceramide synthase (GCS). In the reverse direction, non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase (GCase), also known as β-glucosidase 2 (BGD),{16474} cleaves the glucosyl moiety from glucosylceramide, liberating ceramide, which can be converted into sphingomyelin.{16472} AMP-deoxynojirimycin (AMP-dNM) is a hydrophobic derivative of dNM. It potently inhibits BGD (IC50 = 0.3 nM),{14948} less potently antagonizes GCS (IC50 = 25 nM),{16472} but only poorly inhibits other GCase isoforms. AMP-dNM has been shown to strongly suppress inflammation in a murine model of hapten-induced colitis,{16473} enhance insulin sensitivity in murine and rat models of insulin resistance,{14949} and induce sterol regulatory element-binding protein-regulated gene expression and cholesterol synthesis in HepG2 cells.{16474}

  • 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.

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
