The IRE1 pathway is a component of the unfolded protein response that senses unfolded proteins via an ER luminal domain that becomes oligomerized during stress. It is associated with promoting cell survival through the activity of the IRE1α RNase, whose activity upregulates proteins that enhance ER protein folding and quality control. However, under high ER stress, the IRE1α RNase becomes hyperactive and is less discriminant in its substrate specificity, endonucleolytically cleaving many additional mRNAs that localize to the ER membrane, leading to cell proliferation blocks, inflammation, and apoptosis. KIRA6 is an ATP-competitive IRE1α kinase inhibiting RNase attenuator (KIRA) that allosterically inhibits IRE1α RNase kinase activity (IC50 = 0.6 µM) and prevents oligomerization.{30935} It has been shown to inhibit IRE1α in vivo and to promote cell survival under ER stress.{30935} At 20 µg/ml, KIRA6 is reported to preserve photoreceptor functional viability in rat models of ER stress-induced retinal degeneration.{30935} At 5 mg/kg, it has also been shown to preserve pancreatic β cells, increase insulin, and reduce hyperglycemia in Akita diabetic mice.{30395}

  • 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.
