1,3,4-Oxadiazole derivatives were found to enhance astrocyte differentiation in rat fetal neural stem cells (NSCs). Differentiation activity was assessed by immunocytochemistry and analysis of mRNA expression of astrocyte markers, GFAP and S100. Compounds 7 and 8 showed approximately a two-fold increase in astrocyte differentiation without engagement of neuronal differentiation and detectable cytotoxicity
发现1,3,4-Oxadiazole衍生物可增强大鼠胎儿神经干细胞(NSCs)中的星形胶质细胞分化。通过免疫细胞化学评估分化活性,并分析星形胶质细胞标志物,GFAP和S100的mRNA表达。化合物7和8显示星形胶质细胞分化增加了大约两倍,而没有神经元分化的参与和可检测的细胞毒性。
