SHZ-1

SKU: orb1305655

Description

Shz 1 is a small molecule cardiogenic agent that promotes cellular differentiation into a cardiac phenotype. It upregulates the expression of cardiac-specific markers, such as sarcomeric tropomyosin, making it a valuable tool for in vitro stem cell research and cardiac regeneration studies.

Bioactivity

• In Vitro:
  Shz-1 showes a ~1.5-fold increase in cardiac transcripts of the Nkx2.5 gene. Shz-1 augments the expression of transcripts of the total sarcomeric TPM1 (both TPM1α & TPM1κ) and sarcomeric TPM4α. Shz-1 activates the axolotl TPM4 promoter-driven ectopic expression in C2C12 cells.
