    Product Description

    MK-4101 is a Smoothened (Smo) receptor antagonist.1 It binds to human recombinant Smo expressed in HEK293T cells (IC50 = 1.1 µM) and inhibits Gli1-mediated hedgehog signaling in a reporter assay (IC50 = 1.5 µM). It is also an inhibitor of 11β-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase-1. MK-4101 (40 and 80 mg/kg per day) reduces tumor growth in a murine medulloblastoma mouse allograft model, induces tumor regression when administered at a dose of 80 mg/kg twice per day, and reduces expression of the hedgehog pathway-associated transcription factor Gli1 in tumor tissue.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
