Biological Data

Biological description

Cell permeable, reversible adenylyl cyclase activator which increases cAMP levels and inhibits platelet-activating factor (PAF).

Inhibits mast cell degranulation and lowers intraocular pressure. Also displays vasodilating and hypotensive properties.

It is used as a neuronal differentiation inducer, used as a 3D Growth matrix component and used in the production of liver organoids. Forskolin, in combination with the 2i inhibitors (CHIR 99021 & PD 0325901), and LIF is sufficient to transform hESCs to a naive, mouse embryonic-like state.

 

Application notes
