GSK-3

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) inhibitors act on GSK-3α and GSK-3β, two constitutively active kinases. The serine/threonine kinase was separated in 1980 from rabbit skeletal muscle as a kinase that phosphorylates glycogen synthase. In 1995 insulin was shown to inhibit GSK-3 through protein kinase B (PKB), also known as Akt. GSK-3 also phosphorylates β-catenin and marks it for degradation, so its inhibition activates canonical Wnt signaling. In 2008 laduviglusib, also called CHIR-99021, was combined with a second kinase inhibitor to keep mouse embryonic stem cells in a ground state of self-renewal. SB 216763, TWS119, tideglusib and AR-A 014418 are further GSK-3 inhibitors for Wnt, neuronal and metabolic studies.

    C-Peptide 1 (rat)

    C-Peptide 1 (rat) is a peptide that functions as an activator of β-catenin and GSK-3β. Its primary mechanism involves the regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which plays a crucial role in cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation. C-Peptide 1 (rat) is utilized in cancer research, contributing to studies aimed at understanding tumorigenesis and potential therapeutic interventions.
