Hemin chloride is an oxidized form of heme that inhibits eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α kinase 1 (eIF2αK1), a repressor of eIF-2α.{32368} This alters the initiation of mRNA translation, evoking a wide array of cellular effects. Hemin chloride is used experimentally to induce the expression of heme oxygenase-1 in cells and in animals.{32369,32367,32365} Heme extracted from blood is usually oxidized to hemin chloride.{32366,32364} In porphyria, disorders resulting from an increase in porphyrins, hemin chloride serves to activate feedback inhibition of δ-aminolevulinic acid synthase, reducing heme biosynthesis.{32364}

    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.

  • 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.
