| Bioactivity | VUT-MK142 is a potent new cardiomyogenic synthetic agent promoting the differentiation of pre-cardiac mesoderm into cardiomyocytes, which may be useful to differentiate stem cells into cardiomyocytes for cardiac repair[1]. | |||||||||
| Invitro | VUT-MK142 possesses promising cardiomyogenic effects on various cell types. VUT-MK142 shows a remarkable effect on both P19 and C2C12 cells. Compared to CgC, VUT-MK142-treatment leads to a markedly stronger up-regulation of the expression of ANF[1].VUT-MK142 (1 μM, 7 day treatment) significantly (p < 0.05) increases the luciferase signal by 3.1 ± 0.3 luciferase (n = 5)-fold in P19 cells[1]. | |||||||||
