| Targets |
GNF-6231 targets Porcupine, a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase that is essential for the palmitoylation and secretion of Wnt proteins. By inhibiting Porcupine, it blocks Wnt signaling, which is tightly regulated in cell proliferation, differentiation, and embryonic morphogenesis. Aberrant activation of the Wnt pathway plays a critical role in various cancers including squamous cell carcinoma, breast cancer, and colorectal cancer.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro activity: As an orally active and selective Porcupine inhibitor, GNF-6231 has no appreciable activities, at least up to 10 μM testing concentrations, for more than 200 off-targets, which include GPCRs, kinases, proteases, transporters, ion channels, and nuclear receptors. GNF-6231 shows IC50s of greater than 10 μM on all CYP isoforms tested (2C9, 2D6, 3A4). It shows high permeability in a Caco-2 human cell permeability assay with a possible efflux.
Kinase Assay: GNF-6231 is a potent and selective Porcupine inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.8 nM. Cell Assay: the TM3 Wnt-Luc and L-cell Wnt3A cells are co-cultured in a 384-well plate with DMEM supplemented with 2% (vol/vol) FBS and treated with different concentrations of compounds. After 24 h, the firefly luciferase activities are assayed with the Bright-Glo Luciferase Assay System. The IC50 is measured when the effect of the compound reduces the luminescence signal by 50%. In vitro, GNF-6231 shows no significant activity against over 200 off-targets including GPCRs, kinases, proteases, transporters, ion channels, and nuclear receptors at tested concentrations up to 10 μM. It shows IC50 >10 μM for all tested CYP isoforms (2C9, 2D6, 3A4). It demonstrates high permeability in Caco-2 human cell permeability assays. |
| ln Vivo |
GNF-6231 displays excellent pathway inhibition and induces robust antitumor efficacy in a mouse MMTV-WNT1 xenograft tumor model. GNF-6231 is moderately bound to mouse, rat, dog, monkey, and human plasma proteins (88.0, 83.1, 90.9, 71.2, and 95%, respectively). It shows good oral bioavailability, ranging from 72 to 96% in preclinical species (mouse, rat, and dog) when dosed in solution formulations. GNF-6231 is expected to have minimal to marginal distribution to tissues compared to total body water following intravenous administration to mouse (Vss 0.57 L/kg), rat (Vss 0.70 L/kg), and dog (Vss 0.25 L/kg).

| Enzyme Assay |
Porcupine inhibitory activity is determined using a Wnt3a co-culture RGA (reporter gene assay). TM3 Wnt-Luc and L-cell Wnt3A cells are co-cultured in 384-well plates with DMEM supplemented with 2% FBS and treated with varying concentrations of compound. After 24 hours, firefly luciferase activity is detected using Bright-Glo luciferase assay system.
