CHIR99021 is a chemical compound which acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme GSK-3.[1] It has proved useful for applications in molecular biology involving the transformation of one cell type to another.[2][3]
A mixture of CHIR99021 and valproic acid is claimed to increase the proliferation of inner ear stem cells [4]. This forms the basis of FX-322 in developmeny by Frequency Therapeutics for the treatment of sensorineural hearing loss.[citation needed]
