    Product Description

    MK-0752 is a potent, reversible inhibitor of γ-secretase, reducing the cleavage of APP to Aβ40 in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells with an IC50 value of 5 nM.1,2 It is orally bioavailable and crosses the blood-brain barrier, as orally administered MK-0752 dose-dependently reduces the generation of new amyloid β protein in the brain of rhesus monkeys.2 Through its effects on the Notch pathway, MK-0752 reduces the number of breast cancer stem cells in tumorgrafts, enhancing the efficacy of the chemotherapy drug docetaxel (Item No. 11637) in mice with breast cancer tumors.3
