RORγ

1 μM (EC50)

In Vitro

Zymostenol (12-104 μM) enhances the formation of myelin basic protein-positive (MBP+) oligodendrocytes from mouse epiblast stem cell-derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells[2].
Zymostenol (20 μM, 3 days) arrest MCF-7 cell cycle in the G0-G1 phase[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

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.
