General description

A cell-permeable isoxazolyl-benzamide compound that is more effective than NSC23766 (Cat. Nos. 553502 & 553508) in inhibiting PDGF-BB- (Cat. No. 521225) induced cellular Rac1 activation (45.8% vs 11.1% inhibition by 4 h pretreatment of the respective compound at 50 µM) in serum-starved SMCs (human aortic smooth muscle cells) by interfering Rac1-Tiam1 interaction, while exhibiting no effect toward cellular Cdc42 and RhoA activation or Rac1 interaction to its effector Pak1. Shown to effectively prevent PDGF-BB-induced membrane ruffling and lamellipodia formation in serum-starved 3T3 cells (4 h pretreatment at 25 µM). Also available in InSolution format (Cat. No. 553512).

Cell spreading and migration play central roles in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. We have previously shown that MFN2 regulates the migration of human neutrophil-like cells via suppressing Rac activation. Here, we show that in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, MFN2 suppresses

Mutations of KRAS gene are found in various types of cancer, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Despite intense efforts, no pharmacological approaches are expected to be effective against KRAS-mutant cancers. Macropinocytosis is an evolutionarily conserved actin-dependent endocytic process that internalizes extracellular

Neutrophils rely on glycolysis for energy production. How mitochondria regulate neutrophil function is not fully understood. Here, we report that mitochondrial outer membrane protein Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) regulates neutrophil homeostasis and chemotaxis in vivo Mfn2-deficient neutrophils are released from the
