Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Shz-1 is a novel activator of early cardiac genes (including Nkx2.5) in pluripotent stem cells. Shz-1 activates the axolotl TPM4 promoter-driven ectopic expression in C2C12 cells and the promoters of a variety of genes including axolotl TPM4.

Product Data
Biological target:
Shz-1 activates cardiac differentiation, inducing the expression of early cardiac genes in mouse pluripotent and embryonic stem cells in vitro at low micromolar concentrations. Shz-1 drives differentiation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, mobilized by granule colony-stimulating factor, toward a cardiac phenotype. Shz-1 treated cells enhance myocardial regenerative repair in cryo-injured rat heart.
In vitro activity:
Shz-1 increased cardiac Nkx2.5 gene transcripts and enhanced sarcomeric TPM1 and TPM4α in axolotl hearts. In C2C12 cells, Shz-1 activated axolotl TPM4 and mouse skeletal muscle troponin-I promoters, indicating broad gene activation. Notably, while shz-1 increased TM protein expression in C2C12 cells, it had no impact on axolotl hearts, supporting the idea of translational control in cardiac TM expression.
