Reversine, or2-(4-morpholinoanilino)-6-cyclohexylaminopurine, is a small molecule developed by the group ofPeter G. Schultz, used forstem celldedifferentiation.[1][2]
It also has the potential to selectively induce cell death in cancer cells.[3]
Reversine is known to act as anantagonist of theadenosineA3 receptor. Reversine is a potent inhibitor of the mitotic kinase Mps1[4] and it is widely used to study the process ofchromosome segregation.
