Description

Product Description

Y27632 is a cell-permeable small molecule Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) inhibitor [1]. Y27632 has been found to prevent apoptosis as well as enhance the survival and cloning efficiency of dissociated human embryonic stem (ES) cells without affecting their self-renewal properties or pluripotency [2]. This molecule has also been shown to enhance survival during the transplantation of ES cell-derived neural precursors [3]. Y27632 in combination with Pifithrin-µ significantly improves cell recovery after cryopreservation [4].

Applications MAINTENANCE AND SELF-RENEWAL

  • Enhances survival of human embryonic stem (ES) cells when they are dissociated to single cells by preventing dissociation-induced apoptosis (anoikis), thus increasing their cloning efficiency.
  • Improves embryoid body formation using forced-aggregation protocols.
  • Increases the survival of cryopreserved single human ES cells after thawing.
  • Blocks apoptosis of mouse ES-derived neural precursors after dissociation and transplantation.

REPROGRAMMING

  • Direct lineage reprogramming of fibroblasts to mature neurons, in combination with CHIR99021, RepSox, Forskolin, SP600125, Gö6983 and Valproic Acid.

DIFFERENTIATION

  • Improves survival of human ES cell monolayers at the initiation of differentiation protocols
Product Use Y27632 is for research use only. It is not approved for human or animal use, or for application in vitro diagnostic procedures.
