A synthetic thyroid hormone mimetic that lowers total and LDL cholesterol up to 40% when administered to humans at a dose of 50-200 µg once daily for 14 days; stimulates cholesterol catabolism to bile acids without affecting cholesterol synthesis

The thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), promote the reduction of plasma cholesterol levels and induce weight loss. However when administered in high doses, thyroid hormones produce undesirable side effects in the heart, bone and muscle. KB2115 is a synthetic thyroid hormone mimetic. At a dose of 50-200 µg administered to humans once-daily for 14 days, KB2115 lowers total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol up to 40% without affecting high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and without deleterious side effects to the cardiovascular system.{15145} Unlike the statin class of drugs which decrease cholesterol synthesis, KB2115 stimulates cholesterol catabolism to bile acids without affecting cholesterol synthesis.{15145}

  • 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.
