| Bioactivity | XAV-939 is a Tankyrase inhibitor. XAV-939 has inhibitory activity for TNKS1 and TNKS2 with IC50 values of 5 nM and 2 nM, respectively. XAV-939 also is an enhancer of osteoblastic differentiation of hMSCs. XAV-939 can be used for the research of conditions associated with activated Wnt signaling, such as cancer, fibrotic diseases and conditions associated with low bone formation[1][2][3]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | XAV-939 has activity against TNKS1 and TNKS2 with IC50 values of 5 nM and 2 nM, respectively[1].XAV-939 (0.3-30 μM; 3 or 10 days) enhances osteoblast differentiation of hBMSCs[2].XAV-939 (3 μM) promotes osteoblast differentiation of hMSCs via accumulation of SH3BP2[2].XAV-939 (3 μM; 10 days) upregulates the expression of OPG and downregulates the expression of RANKL in hBMSCs during osteoblast differentiation[2].XAV-939 suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signaling and promotes SFRP3 and SFRP4 expression[3].
