PD-98059 (167869-21-8) is an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MKK / MEK). Acts via binding to the inactivated form of MEK, preventing its phosphorylation by cRAF or MEK kinase (IC50=2-7μM).1,2 PD-98059 accelerates differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into osteoclast-like cells.3 Mimics BMP4 in supporting self renewal of embryonic stem cells.4
