3-a-Aminocholestane (3AC SHIP1 Inhibitor) - 10 mg

SH2-Domain containing inositol 5-phosphatases (SHIP1 & SHIP2) dephosphorylate the 5-position of PI(3 4 5)P3 generating PI(3 4)P2. SHIP2 is ubiquitously expressed while SHIP1 is only found in hematopoietic lineage cells. 3AC is a selective inhibitor of SHIP1 (EC50 = 10 μM) and shows no inhibition of the other isoform SHIP2 at concentrations up to 1 mM. 3AC promotes apoptosis of SHIP1-expressing leukemia cells (KG-1) and multiple myeloma cells (OPM) suggesting SHIP1 inhibition is a potential drug target for blood cancers. Mice treated with 3AC show increased numbers of MIR cells in the spleen and lymph nodes and increased numbers of granulocytes. Powered by Bioz See more details on Bioz
