Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), one of the most widely investigated PGs, can be used as a biomarker of inflammation, disease state, or therapeutic effectiveness. However due to its rapid metabolism, direct measurement of PGE2 in biological samples is difficult. The major urinary metabolite of PGE2, tetranor-PGEM, serves as an indirect marker of PGE2 biosynthesis.{2127, 2308} Though like PGE2, tetranor-PGEM is also chemically unstable. tetranor-PGAM is a dehydration product of tetranor-PGEM and can be measured as a surrogate for tetranor-PGEM levels in urine.{20249}

The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.

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.
