Stemolecule™ IDE-1 is an inducer of definitive endoderm (IDE) from embryonic stem (ES) cells in mouse and human ES cell cultures. Endoderm chemically induced by IDE-1 can continue to differentiate into pancreatic progenitors in vitro and contribute to gut tube formation in vivo when injected into the developing gut tube of mouse embryos.

Stemolecule™ IDE-1

Stemolecule™ IDE-1 was identified in a high throughput screen as an inducer of definitive endoderm (IDE) from embryonic stem (ES) cells¹. IDE-1 is able to generate Sox17+/FoxA2+ cells to an equal or greater efficiency than that of protein (i.e. Activin A or Nodal) inducers of definitive endoderm in mouse or human ES cell cultures¹. It has an EC₅₀ of 125.5 nM and functions in part via activation of TGF-β signaling, as evident by Smad2 phosphorylation¹. Endoderm chemically induced by IDE-1 can continue to differentiate into pancreatic progenitors in vitro and contribute to gut tube formation in vivo when injected into the developing gut tube of mouse embryos¹.
