A small-molecule enhancer of autophagy through an mTOR-independent pathway; significantly reduces the number of eGFP-HDQ74-positive cells, and increases the transcript level of p62 in Atg5+/+ MEFs; significantly reduces levels of endogenous p62 and cell death in NPC1 hiPSC-derived neurons; enhances bacterial clearance and suppresses IL-1β Secretion in an autophagy-dependent manner; a valuable tool for studying the role of autophagy in the context of cellular homeostasis and disease.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
