Oltipraz, originally identified as an antischistosomiasis agent, is a potent anticarcinogen in a variety of animal models of cancer at concentrations of ~200 mg/kg.{24177} It is an effective inducer of phase I and II detoxifying enzymes, including glutathione S-transferases, UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase, microsomal epoxide hydrolase, and aflatoxin aldehyde reductase.{24177,24178} Induction of these metabolic enzymes by oltipraz has been linked to the transcription factor nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 and its activation of the antioxidant response element.{24177} In mice, oltipraz at 150 mg/kg can also induce expression of CYP2B, a gene regulated by the constitutive androstane receptor, a transcription factor important in the detoxification of endobiotic and xenobiotic substances.{24179}

  • 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.
