Therefore small molecules are of great interest as they might provide new pharmacological tools to influence and study underlying mechanism. Thus, we developed a multi-level screening system to identify novel GSK-3ß inhibitors. The influence on Wnt/ß-catenin signaling was evaluated in human neural progenitor cells. New compounds raised the neuronal differentiation, whereat it was shown that the effect was due antagonistic action at GSK-3ß.
