Product Description: Semagacestat (Standard) is the analytical standard of Semagacestat. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Semagacestat is a γ-secretase inhibitor, inhibits β-amyloid (Aβ42), Aβ38 and Aβ40 with IC50s of 10.9, 12 and 12.1 nM, respectively; also inhibits Notch signaling with IC50 of 14.1 nM. Semagacestat can be used for the research of alzheimer's?disease[1].
Formula: C19H27N3O4
