[No.04-0009] Purmorphamine

Purmorphamine is a small molecule that promotes the differentiation of human and murine mesenchymal progenitor cells into osteoblasts1,2. The mechanism of action study of Purmorphamine indicates that it is an agonist of Smoothened, a 7-transmembrane receptor of the hedgehog signaling pathway3,4. Purmorphamine can also be used to replace sonic hedgehog for the generation of motor neurons from human embryonic stem cells5.
