SAG
Chemical Name: 3-Chloro-N-[trans-4-(methylamino)cyclohexyl]-N-[[3-(4-pyridinyl)phenyl]methyl]benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
SAG is a potent Smoothened (Smo) receptor agonist (Kd = 59 nM); antagonizes Cyclopamine (Cat. No. 1623) action at the Smo receptor. SAG potently activates the Hedgehog signaling pathway in Shh-light 2 cells (EC50 ~ 3 nM) and nduces pathway activation independently of Ptch proteins. SAG is a putative inhibitor of a cellular component required for Hedgehog signaling and also enhances neuronal differentiation of iPSCs into dopaminergic neurons.SAG dihydrochloride (Cat. No. 6390) also available.
