Decanoic acid is a medium-chain saturated fatty acid. It is a non-competitive antagonist at AMPA receptors that selectively reduces glutamate-induced currents in Xenopus oocytes expressing GluA2 and GluA3 subunit-containing AMPA receptors (IC50 = 0.52 mM) over those expressing GluA1 (IC50 = 2.09 mM) or GluA1 and GluA2 subunits (IC50 = 1.16 mM).{47639} It inhibits epileptiform activity induced by pentylenetetrazole (Item No. 18682) or low magnesium in rat hippocampal slices. Decanoic acid (1 mM) induces contractions in isolated guinea pig duodenum, an effect that can be blocked by the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist hyoscine, voltage-gated sodium channel inhibitor tetrodotoxin (Item Nos. 14964 | 14963), or M2 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist hexamethonium (Item No. 25505).{47640} It increases the escape threshold in an orofacial mechanical stimulation test in rats when administered at a topical dose of 30% in ointment form, indicating analgesic activity.{47644} This effect can be blocked by the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist methoctramine (Item No. 24317). Plasma levels of decanoic acid are increased in patients with colorectal cancer when compared to patients with breast cancer or ulcerative colitis or without cancer.{47645}

  • 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.

    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.
