Biochem/physiol Actions

1-Azakenpaullone (AZP) can stimulate the transcription of β-catenin-related genes. This compound can induce the multiplication and replication of β cell.
1-Azakenpaullone is a cell permeable, potent, selective inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) with 100-fold less cross-reactivity against CDKs. 1-Azakenpaullone can be used together with BIO and CHIR99021 as "gold standards" for GSK3 inhibition.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative therapy for many malignant and nonmalignant diseases. However, chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) remains a significant cause of late morbidity and mortality after allogeneic HSCT. cGVHD often manifests as autoimmune syndrome.

Neural crest (NC) is a transient population, arising during embryonic development and capable of differentiating into various somatic cells. The defects of neural crest development leads to neurocristopathy. Several signaling pathways were revealed their significance in NC cell specification. Fibroblast

The trunk is a key feature of the bilaterian body plan. Despite spectacular morphological diversity in bilaterian trunk anatomies, most insights into trunk development are from segmented taxa, namely arthropods and chordates. Mechanisms of posterior axis elongation (PAE) and segmentation
