Biological Activity

Description SAG (Smoothened Agonist) is a potent agonist of Smoothened (Smo). Smoothened Agonist induces firefly luciferase expression in Shh-LIGHT2 cells with an EC50 of 3 nM.
Targets
Smo [1]
(in Shh-LIGHT2 cells)
3 nM(EC50)
In vitro

SAG can counteract glucocorticoids (GCs) antagonism of Shh-driven granule neuron precursor (CGNP) proliferation.[2]
In vivo

Systemic administration of Smoothened Agonist (SAG) prevents the neurotoxic effects of glucocorticoids. Smoothened Agonist can cross the blood-brain barrier to activate Shh transcriptional targets in vivo. SAG at the treatment dose effectively prevents GC-induced neonatal cerebellar developmental abnormalities.[2]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[2]
  • Cell lines

    Granule neuron precursor (CGNP) primary cells

  • Concentrations

    15-240 nM

  • Incubation Time

    24 h

  • Method

    CGNP are stimulated by various SAG concentrations (15 to 240 nM) compared with ShhN (3 μg/ml) and vehicle after 24 hours in vitro. Quantitative reverse transcription–PCR is performed with SYBR Green master mix in LightCycler 480.
