PI4KIIα 0.47 μM (IC50)
PI-273 targets PI4KIIα (phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type II alpha), a kinase that catalyzes the phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P). PI4P is a key signaling lipid involved in various cellular processes including membrane trafficking, signal transduction, and cell growth. By inhibiting PI4KIIα, PI-273 reduces PI4P levels, cell viability, and AKT signaling in cells. The compound is highly selective for PI4KIIα, as demonstrated by the lack of effect in PI4KIIα knockout cells. This mechanism is particularly relevant for cancers with dysregulated PI4KIIα signaling. |

| ln Vitro |
At the G2-M phase, PI-273 (2 μM; 48 hours) inhibits the cell cycle[1]. All three Ras wild-type breast cancer cells (MCF-7, T-47D, and SK-BR-3) undergo cell apoptosis when exposed to PI-273 (2 μM) for 48 hours[1]. AKT signaling pathway suppression is possible with PI-273 (0.5-2 μM; for 3 days) in a dose- and time-dependent way[1]. Both MCF-7 and T-47D cell proliferation is inhibited in a time-dependent manner by PI-273 at 1 μM and 2 μM [1].
In vitro, PI-273 inhibits PI4KIIα kinase activity with an IC50 of 0.47 μM and suppresses cell proliferation. The compound reduces PI4P levels, cell viability, and AKT signaling in wild-type MCF-7 cells but not in PI4KIIα-knockout MCF-7 cells, demonstrating its high selectivity for PI4KIIα. PI-273 inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation, blocks the cell cycle, and induces cell apoptosis. These in vitro studies demonstrate the compound's potential as an anticancer agent. |
| ln Vivo |
In MCF-7 xenografts, PI-273 (intraperitoneal injection; 25 mg/kg/day; 15 days) significantly inhibits the tumor weight and volume[1]. The absolute bioavailability of PI-273 is 5.1%[1]. Its half-lives are 0.411 hours for intravenous treatment and 1.321 hours for intragastric administration (0.5 mg/kg intravenously or 1.5 mg/kg intragastrically; 0.08-5 hours).
In vivo, PI-273 has been studied for its potential in cancer therapy, particularly in breast cancer. The compound's ability to inhibit PI4KIIα and reduce tumor growth suggests potential therapeutic applications for cancers with dysregulated PI4KIIα signaling. Further in vivo studies are needed to evaluate its efficacy and safety. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme inhibition assay for PI-273 measures its ability to inhibit PI4KIIα kinase activity. The assay is performed using purified PI4KIIα enzyme and phosphatidylinositol as substrate, with radiolabeled ATP. The reaction is monitored by measuring the incorporation of radioactive phosphate into PI4P or by other suitable methods. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Selectivity is assessed by testing the compound against other lipid kinases and related enzymes.

In vitro cellular studies are conducted using breast cancer cell lines, particularly MCF-7 cells. Cells are treated with PI-273 at various concentrations (typically μM ranges) for defined time periods. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. PI4P levels are measured by lipid extraction and mass spectrometry or ELISA. AKT signaling is evaluated by Western blot. Cell cycle analysis and apoptosis assays are performed to evaluate mechanisms of cell death. |

In vivo animal experiments are performed using xenograft models of breast cancer. Tumor-bearing mice are administered PI-273 via various routes at different doses. Tumor volume is measured over time, and endpoints include tumor growth inhibition and survival. Pharmacodynamic studies evaluate PI4KIIα inhibition and downstream signaling in tumor tissues. |
