General description

A cell-permeable pyridinylphenyl-methanone compound that is reported to effectively upregulate SMN (survival of motor neuron) protein level in 3 out of 4 SMA (spinal muscular atrophy) patient-derived fibroblast lines (by 71% to 93% increase in 48 h; 5 µg/mL), but not HT1080, 293T, A549, two human ESC-MN lines, MEF, mESC-MN, rat PC12, or rat ST14A cells. Shown to preferentially stimulate cellular Erk (Thr202/Tyr204) over Akt (Ser473) phosphorylation in SMA fibroblast line 9677 in a time-dependent manner (tmax = 24 h; 10 µg/mL), indicative of Ras-Raf-MEK signaling pathway activation.

Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content.
