In PC12 cells (primary screening), TCS 2210 induced neurite outgrowth and increased neuronal markers β-III tubulin and neuron-specific enolase (NSE). In rat bone marrow MSCs, treatment with 20 μM TCS 2210 for 2 days caused significant morphological changes (neuronal-like phenotype) and increased β-III tubulin expression (Western blot and immunocytochemistry) without cytotoxicity. Nissl staining showed that >95% of MSCs converted to a neuronal phenotype after 48 h at 20 μM. TCS 2210 time-dependently increased β-III tubulin and NSE expression. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP, an astroglial marker) was not detected. Whole-cell patch clamp recordings showed that TCS 2210-treated MSCs exhibited outward K+ currents when voltage steps from -30 to 90 mV were applied, indicating neural electrophysiological properties; untreated MSCs showed no detectable outward current. Gene expression profiling by DNA microarray and quantitative PCR revealed that TCS 2210 dose-dependently increased cholinergic neuron receptor genes (Chrna2, Chrnb2, Chrma) and neuron-specific genes Fbxo2 and Sizn1. In FLIPR membrane potential assays, addition of acetylcholine (10 μM) to TCS 2210-treated MSCs induced a change in membrane potential, confirming cholinergic neuron properties [1].

| Cell Assay |
Rat MSCs were isolated from bone marrow and characterized. Cells were treated with 20 μM TCS 2210 for 2 days. Immunocytochemistry: cells stained with anti-β-III tubulin antibody and DAPI. Western blot: protein lysates probed with antibodies against β-III tubulin, NSE, and GFAP. Nissl staining: used for neuron detection; differentiation efficiency estimated by cell counting. Whole-cell patch clamp: membrane currents recorded; K+ currents assessed by applying voltage pulses from -30 to 90 mV; data analyzed with pClamp 8.1. Quantitative PCR: mRNA levels of Chrna2, Chrnb2, Fbxo2, Sizn1 determined. FLIPR membrane potential assay: MSCs treated with 20 μM TCS 2210 for 48 h, then 10 μM acetylcholine added, and membrane potential changes detected using a FLIPR assay kit and Flex station software [1].

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No cytotoxicity was observed in MSCs treated with 20 μM TCS 2210 for 2 days as determined by cell viability assessment (Figure S3 in Supporting Information) [1].

| Additional Infomation |
TCS 2210 (compound 1) was identified as a novel small molecule that induces neuronal differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells. It is the first reported small molecule that can direct MSCs to differentiate into neurons with demonstrated electrophysiological properties (K+ currents) and cholinergic neuron characteristics (acetylcholine response). It shows no cytotoxicity and is more effective in MSCs than NGF or neuropathiazole. This compound has potential as a tool for studying cell fate determination and for cell therapy applications in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases [1].

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
