Emricasan
Tocris Bioscience | Catalog # 7310
Product Description
Emricasan is a potent caspase inhibitor (IC50 values are 0.3, 0.4, 2, 4, 6, 6 and 20 nM for caspase-9, -1, -3, -6, -7, -8, and -2, respectively). Emricasan is antiapoptotic by inhibiting caspase 8. It also preserves cell viability after infection with several strains of Zika. Emricasan promotes survival of pluripotent stem cells in culture when used in combination with Chroman-1 (Cat. No. 7163), trans-ISRIB (Cat. No. 5284) and Polyamine Supplement x1000 (lyophilized) (Cat. No. 7739), a combination known as CEPT. When used as part of the CEPT cocktail, Emricasan improves survival of differentiated cells following cryopreservation. The compound also reduces hepatic inflammation in an animal model of liver injury. Orally bioavailable.
