BMP signaling agonist sb4 is a potent benzoxazole bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) signaling agonist with a EC₅₀ value of 74 nM, activates BMP signaling by stabilizing intracellular p-SMAD-1/5/9. BMP signaling agonist sb4 activates BMP4 target genes (inhibitors of DNA binding, Id1 and Id3) canonical BMP signaling^[1]. IC50 & Target: IC50: BMP4 signal^[1] In Vitro: BMP signaling agonist sb4 (0.05 uM-1 uM; 24 hours) induces phosphorylated SMAD-1/5/9 in a dose-dependent manner in PRECs cells under serum-starved conitions^[1].
BMP signaling agonist sb4 (1 uM; 0-60 mins) enhances the efficacy of signaling at each concentration of rhBMP4 tested. This effect is most pronounced at low concentrations of rhBMP4, whereby sb4 increases BRE-luc expression 2-fold at 0.4 ng/ml of rhBMP4^[1].
