General description

A cell-permeable 2,6,9-trisubstituted purine compound that induces osteoblast differentiation of multipotent mesenchymal progenitor cells C3H10T1/2 (EC50 = 1 µM) and lineage-committed preosteoblasts MC3T3-E1. Its effect can be synergized with that of BMP-4 (bone morphogenetic protein-4) and has been shown to induce transdifferentiation even in preadipocytes and myoblasts. Reported to induce osteogenesis by activation of the Hedgehog signaling pathway. A 50 mM (5 mg/192 µl) solution of Purmorphamine (Cat. No. 540223) in DMSO is also available.

Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content.
