Phenoxybenzamine is an antagonist of α-adrenergic receptors (α-ARs).{53203,26625} It inhibits norepinephrine-induced inositol phosphate formation in HEK293 cells expressing α1-ARs (EC50s = 125.9-316.2 nM), as well as radioligand binding to α2A-, α2B-, and α2C-ARs in CHO cell membranes (Kis = 60, 10, and 60 nM, respectively). Phenoxybenzamine (0.5-5 µM) decreases norepinephrine-, histamine-, and calcium-induced contractions in isolated rabbit aortic strips.{53204} It also inhibits proliferation of nine cancer cell lines, including lymphoma, breast, and lung cancer cells, with IC50 values ranging from 29.5 to 99.8 µM.{53205} Phenoxybenzamine (3-1,000 µg/kg) reduces increases in diastolic blood pressure induced by the α-AR agonists cirazoline (Item No. 21791), St-587, Sgd 101/75, and B-HT 920 (Item No. 14177) in pithed rats.{53206} It also decreases the time to find the platform in the Morris water maze, indicating restored spatial memory, in a rat model of fluid percussion-induced traumatic brain injury (TBI).{53207} Formulations containing phenoxybenzamine have been used in the treatment of hypertension and hyperhidrosis associated with pheochromocytomas, an adrenal medullary neuroendocrine tumor.

  • 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 – 5 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.
