LDN193189 (GMP-grade) is a potent inhibitor of the BMP pathway, shown to contribute to the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into functional pancreatic beta cells. This small molecule is produced under GMP guidelines and is used in cell therapy applications.
Captivate Bio offers a portfolio of GMP-grade small molecules. GMP-grade small molecules are produced under well establish, controlled cGMP guidelines and are used as ancillary reagents in the generation of stem cells and in reprogramming, self-and differentiation workflows for cell therapy applications.
LDN193189 (HCl) is a highly-potent inhibitor of BMP signaling, specifically blocking ALK1 (IC50 of 0.8 nM), ALK2 (IC50 of 0.8 nM), ALK3 (IC50 of 5.3 nM), and ALK6 (IC50 of 16.7 nM), and in turn affecting Smad1/5/8 expression (Galvin-Burgess, et al.). LDN193189 (HCl) has been shown to contribute to the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) into functional pancreatic beta cells when combined with CHIR99021, SANT-1, Y27632, Compound E, RepSox, Triiodothyronine Salt along with other growth factors (Pagliuca, et al.). LDN193189 has also been utilized in the derivation of neural progenitor cells (Edri, et al.), and cortical neurons (Qi, et al.) from PSCs.
