Related Product Information for U-0126 small molecule
U-0126 is a novel, potent and selective MEK inhibitor (MEK1; IC50=72nM, MEK2; IC50=58nM). Inhibits AP-1 transcription activity. Blocks the production of inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases.
Binding of extracellular growth factors to cell surface receptors often results in activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). MAPK is regulated by MAPK kinase, also called MEK. Deprivation of growth factors during cell culture or intracellular MEK inhibition leads to inhibition of proliferation and apoptotic cell death. N Blank et al. (2002) have shown that U0126, a common used MEK inhibitor and compound that itself has no intrinsic fluorescence in vitro but develops an intensive fluorescence during cell culture which can be observed in all fluorescence channels with predominance in the FL1 channel (525nm).

Product Notes
The U-0126 (Catalog #AAA808084) is a Small Molecule produced from Synthetic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "U-0126, Small Molecule" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
