[ Name ]:
Hh-Ag1.5

Biological Activity

[Description]:

Hh-Ag1.5 (SAg1.5) is a potent Hedgehog (Hh) agonist with an EC50 of 1 nM[1]. Hh-Ag1.5 mediated reprogramming breaks the quiescence of noninjured liver stem cells for rescuing liver failure[2].

[Target]

EC50: 1 nM (Hedgehog)[1]


[In Vitro]

HhAg1.5 (5 μM; for 3 weeks) facilitates dramatic expansion of quiescent CD133+ CD45- liver stem cells (Hh3A cells) enriched from non-injured liver in vitro[2]. Hh-Ag1.5 competely binds to the Smo-containing membranes with the Ki value of 0.52 nM[3]. The Smo agonist SAG-1.5 displays nanomolar-range potency stimulation of Gli-responsive reporter activity, with an EC50 of 7 nM[4].
