Overview

Thiazovivin is a selective, cell-permeable small molecule that directly targets Rho-associated kinase (ROCK)1. In addition, Thiazovivin protects human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in the absence of ECM by regulating E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell interaction1. This observation suggests that Thiazovivin promotes cell survival. In other studies, Thiazovivin, in combination with inhibitors of the TGFβ receptor and MEK pathway, has been shown to improve reprogramming efficiency by more than 200-fold2.

Specifications

Product Name: Stemolecule Thiazovivin

Catalog Number: 04-0017

Size: 1 mg

Chemical Name: N-benzyl-2-(pyrimidin-4-ylamino)thiazole-4-carboxamide

Chemical Formula: C15H13N5OS

Molecular Weight: 311.36

CAS Number: 1226056-71-8

Purity: Greater than 98 % by HPLC analysis

Formulation: Light brown powder

Solubility: Thiazovivin is soluble in DMSO at 100 mM.

Reconstitution: For a 10 mM concentrated stock solution of Thiazovivin, reconstitute the compound by adding 321.2 µL of DMSO to the entire contents of the vial. If precipitate is observed, warm the solution to 37 °C for 2 to 5 minutes. For use in cell culture, warm the media prior to adding thiazovivin.  As a general rule, cells in culture are sensitive to DMSO in the medium at 0.5% or less.

Storage and Stability: Store powder at 4 °C protected from light. Information about the stability of Stemolecules in solution is largely not available. As a general guideline, we recommend that stock solution be freshly made and stored in aliquots at −20 °C, protected from light. The effect of storage of stock solutions should be verified for each application.

Quality Control: The purity of Thiazovivin was determined by HPLC analysis. The accurate mass was determined by mass spectrometry. No acute cytotoxicity was observed in mouse embryonic stem cells following a 6 hour exposure to 1 nM — 100 µM of Thiazovivin.
