Researchers synthesized a series of hybrid vitamin?K analogues (linked with retinoic acid or modified side chains) that show about threefold greater potency in driving neural progenitor cells to differentiate into neurons compared to natural vitamin?K (MK?4). Mechanistic studies revealed that vitamin?K activates mGluR1?mediated signaling, triggering downstream epigenetic and transcriptional programs that steer stem cells toward a neuronal fate. Structural modeling and molecular docking showed that the lead analogue (Novel VK / compound?7) binds more strongly to mGluR1 than natural MK?4, reinforcing the receptor's central role.
