Description
ID-8 (147591-46-6) enhances stem cell proliferation and protects pluripotency in culture.1?Inhibits Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK).2
Uses
ID 8 is an indole derivative that sustains embryonic stem cell self-renewal in long-term culture.
General Description
ID-8 is an inhibitor of dual-specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A).
Biochem/physiol Actions
ID-8 sustains self-renewal and pluripotency of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in vitro. Stimulates proliferation at a steady rate (observed in serum-free media supplemented with 10 μM over a 30 day period).
