Key Product Details

Description

Selective inhibitor of TGF-βRI, ALK4 and ALK7

Product Description

A 83-01 is a potent inhibitor of TGF-β type I receptor ALK5 kinase, type I activin/nodal receptor ALK4 and type I nodal receptor ALK7 (IC50 values are 12, 45 and 7.5 nM respectively). A 83-01 blocks phosphorylation of Smad2 and inhibits TGF-β-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Only weakly inhibits ALK-1, -2, -3, -6 and MAPK activity. More potent than SB 431542 (Cat. No. 1614). A 83-01 inhibits differentiation of rat induced pluripotent stem cells (riPSCs) and increases clonal expansion efficiency. Helps maintain homogeneity and long-term in vitro self-renewal of human iPSCs. Combined with other reagents, A 83-01 promotes neural differentiation of hPSCs and also converts fibroblasts into cardiomyocytes (see protocol below).

A 83-01 synthesized to Ancillary Material Grade also available.

For more information about how A 83-01 may be used, see our protocol: Converting Fibroblasts into Cardiomyocytes (9C Cocktail)

Scientific Data Images for A 83-01

Adult Stem Cell-derived Liver Organoids

Application of A 83-01 in Culture and Characterization of Adult Stem Cell-derived Liver Organoids.

Adult stem cell-derived liver organoids were cultured using A 83-01, Y-27632 dihydrochloride (Catalog # 1254), HEPES (Catalog # 3173), Forskolin (Catalog # 1099), N-Acetylcysteine (Catalog # 7874), along with other reagents used in the human liver organoid culture protocol. After 3 days, liver organoid expansion medium was added for 7-10 days, followed by liver organoid differentiation medium, which includes A 83-01, HEPES (Catalog # 3173), Nicotinamide (Catalog # 4106), N-Acetylcysteine (Catalog # 7874), along with other reagents. Differentiated human liver organoids were stained using a (A) Human Serum Albumin Antibody (Catalog # MAB1455; red) and a (B) Human HNF-3beta /FoxA2 Antibody (Catalog # AF2400; red) and counterstained with DAPI (Catalog # 5748; blue).
iPSC-derived Human Intestinal Organoid

Application of A 83-01 in Culture and Characterization of iPSC-derived Human Intestinal Organoids.

iPSC-derived human intestinal organoids were cultured using A 83-01, Y-27632 dihydrochloride (Catalog # 1254), SB 202190 (Catalog # 1264), N-Acetylcysteine (Catalog # 7874), Nicotinamide (Catalog # 4106), along with other reagents used in the human intestinal organoid culture protocol. (A) Human intestinal organoids were stained using a Human/Mouse/Rat Vimentin Antibody (Catalog # MAB2105; green) and a Human/Mouse Desmin Antibody (Catalog # AF3844; red) to visualize myofibroblast cells and counterstained with DAPI (Catalog # 5748; blue). (B) Human intestinal organoids were stained using a Human/Mouse E-Cadherin Antibody (Catalog # AF748; green), a Human MUC2 Antibody (Novus Biologicals, Catalog # NBP2-44431; red) and counterstained with DAPI (Catalog # 5748; blue).
Adult Stem Cell-derived Human Descending Colon Organoids

Application of A 83-01 in Culture and Characterization of Adult Stem Cell-derived Human Descending Colon Organoids.

Adult stem cells isolated from human descending colon were embedded and then cultured for 30 days in intestinal organoid culture medium, which includes A 83-01, Y-27632 dihydrochloride (Catalog # 1254), SB 202190 (Catalog # 1264), N-Acetylcysteine (Catalog # 7874), Nicotinamide (Catalog # 4106), along with other reagents used in the human intestinal organoid culture protocol. (A) Organoids were fixed and stained with a Human MUC2 Antibody (Novus Biologicals; Catalog # NBP2-44431; green) to visualize intestinal goblet cells and counterstained with a Human/Mouse E-Cadherin Antibody (Catalog # AF748; red) and DAPI (Catalog # 5748; blue).(B) Organoids were fixed and stained with a Human Chromogranin A Antibody (Catalog # MAB90981; green) to visualize enteroendocrine cells and counterstained with a Human/Mouse E-Cadherin Antibody (Catalog # AF748; red) and DAPI (Catalog # 5748; blue).
