Handling Instructions Technical Support

LDN193189 (DM-3189) dihydrochloride is a potent selective BMP type I receptor (BMP I) inhibitor. LDN193189 efficiently inhibits transcriptional activity of the BMP type I receptors ALK2 and ALK3 with IC50 values of 5 nM and 30 nM, respectively. LDN193189 can be used for the research of bone morphogenetic protein signalling, such as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
