General description
A cell-permeable thienylpyrimidine compound that is reported to act as a potent and selective GSK-3β inhibitor (IC50 = 64 nM), while exhibiting little or no activity against 58 and much reduced potency against 7 (>75% inhibition at 5 µM) other kinases. Shown to activate cellular Wnt pathway signaling (EC50 = 1.25 µM in a Super (8X) TOPFlash reporter assay) in HEK293 cultures and promote proliferation of murine and hamster β cell lines (EC50 = 1.143 µM using murine R7T1 cultures) as well as of primary rat β cells.

To identify small molecules that can induce beta-cell replication, a large chemical library was screened for proliferation of growth-arrested, reversibly immortalized mouse beta cells by using an automated high-throughput screening platform. A number of structurally diverse, active compounds were identified
