Description

General description

A cell-permeable tetrahydroisoquinolinylidene compound that modulates Wnt/β-catenin signaling by targeting the PR72/130 subunit of PP2A and thereby blocking PP2A/Nkd complex formation, resulting in diminished β-catenin/p300 interaction and a concomitant increase in β-catenin/CBP usage. Co-adminitration of IQ-1 (4 µg/ml) and Wnt3a (100 ng/ml), but neither reagent alone, has been shown to be sufficient in maintaining long-term (>48 days) murine ESCs (Embryonic Stem Cells) pluripotency in the absence of serum.
