DAPT is an inhibitor of the γ-secretase complex. Notch is a key target of γ-secretase, therefore DAPT indirectly inhibits the Notch pathway. Other targets of γ-secretase that would be influenced by DAPT include amyloid precursor protein, E-cadherin, and ErbB4. (Dovey et al.).

MAINTENANCE AND SELF-RENEWAL

DIFFERENTIATION

  • Promotes differentiation of nociceptors from human pluripotent stem cells, in combination with several other small molecules (Chambers et al.).
  • Promotes differentiation of neurons from human and mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells (Crawford and Roelink, Elkabetz et al.).
  • Promotes differentiation of retinal pigment epithelium from mouse ES cells (Osakada et al.).
  • Promotes differentiation of pancreatic cells from human pluripotent stem cells (D'Amour et al.).

CANCER RESEARCH
