Stemolecule™ Cyclopamine
Description
Stemolecule™ Cyclopamine is a steroid alkaloid isolated from the corn lily (Veratrum californicum) and originally identified as a teratogenic agent1. Cyclopamine has since been identified as a specific inhibitor of hedgehog singaling by direct binding to the heptahelical bundle of Smoothened2. Hedgehog signaling is involved in embryogenesis as well as cancer progression3. Cyclopamine has been utilized as a small molecule inducer of stem cell differentiation towards definitive endoderm pancreatic islet cells4, as a modulator of cell proliferation5, and as an anticancer drug6.
