Overview
Reprogramming stimulating compound (RSC)-133 is an indole derivative that specifically inhibits DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 (Lee et al.).
REPROGRAMMING
· Increases kinetics and efficiency of reprogramming human foreskin fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells, when used with reprogramming factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC (Lee et al.).
MAINTENANCE & SELF-RENEWAL
· Supports the maintenance of human pluripotent stem cells in unconditioned medium (Lee et al.).

A novel small molecule facilitates the reprogramming of human somatic cells into a pluripotent state and supports the maintenance of an undifferentiated state of human pluripotent stem cells.
Abstract
Abstract
Booster of pluripotency: RSC133, a new synthetic derivative of indoleacrylic acid/indolepropionic acid, exhibits dual activity by inhibiting histone deacetylase and DNA methyltransferase. Furthermore it potently improves the reprogramming of human somatic cells into a pluripotent state and aids the growth and maintenance of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs).
