CAS 686770-61-6: IWP-2

Antagonist of Wnt signalling pathway by inhibiting the activity of Porcn, a member of the membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) family. Porcn is required for the palmitoylation of Wnt, mediating its secretion and signalling. Inhibits self-renewal in embryonic stem cells, whilst promoting differentiation to epiblast stem cells.

IWP-2 is a Wnt pathway inhibitor and an ATP-competitive CK1δ inhibitor. IWP-2 inhibits self-renewal of embryonic stem cells. Cost effective and quality assured.

Applications IWP-2 is an inactivator of Porcn function; inhibitor of Wnt production. IWP-2 is useful in the treatment diseases and conditions such as cancer, degenerative diseases, type II diabetes and osteopetrosis. References Poss, K., et al.: Dev.
