IC50: 0.76 nM (LRRK2)[1]
MLi-2 targets leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), a kinase implicated in both familial and sporadic Parkinson's disease. Mutations in LRRK2 are among the most common genetic causes of Parkinson's disease, making it a key therapeutic target. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
MLi-2 demonstrates remarkable efficacy in three different assays: radioligand competition Binding (IC50=3.4 nM), cellular test monitoring LRRK2 pSer935 LRRK2 dephosphorylation (IC50=1.4 nM), and purified LRRK2 kinase assay in vitro (IC50=0.76 nM). Over 300 kinases, as well as a range of receptors and ion channels, are more than 295-fold selective for MLi-2 [1].
In vitro, MLi-2 potently inhibits LRRK2 kinase activity with an IC50 of 0.76 nM in a purified enzyme assay. In cell-based assays monitoring LRRK2 pSer935 dephosphorylation, it shows an IC50 of 1.4 nM. In radioligand competition binding assays, it exhibits an IC50 of 3.4 nM. |
| ln Vivo |
Dephosphorylation of pSer935 LRRK2 was used to measure the dose-dependent suppression of central and peripheral targets in MLi-2 mice treated acutely or subchronically over a 24-hour period. Over a period of 15 weeks, MLi-2 treatment in MitoPark mice resulted in well-tolerated brain and plasma exposure. MitoPark mice treated with MLi-2 showed alterations in lung morphology that were in line with increased type II pneumocytes [1].
In vivo, MLi-2 is orally active and brain-penetrant, making it suitable for central nervous system applications. It has shown potential in preclinical models of Parkinson's disease by inhibiting LRRK2 kinase activity in the brain. The compound's high potency and selectivity support its use in investigating LRRK2 biology. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme inhibition assay for MLi-2 involves measuring the kinase activity of purified LRRK2 in the presence of the compound. The assay uses a peptide substrate and ATP, and the phosphorylation is quantified using a radiometric or fluorescence-based method. The IC50 is determined by plotting the percentage of remaining activity against compound concentration.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for MLi-2 involve measuring LRRK2 phosphorylation at Ser935 in cells treated with the compound. Cells are incubated with MLi-2 at various concentrations, and the level of LRRK2 pSer935 is detected by Western blot using a phospho-specific antibody. The EC50 for inhibition of LRRK2 autophosphorylation is determined.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy of MLi-2 is evaluated in mouse and rat models of Parkinson's disease. The compound is typically administered orally, and LRRK2 kinase activity in brain tissue is measured by assessing the phosphorylation of LRRK2 substrates. Behavioral assays may also be performed to evaluate functional outcomes.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
MLi-2 is orally bioavailable and brain-penetrant, with favorable pharmacokinetic properties. It has a molecular weight of 379.46 g/mol and a molecular formula of C21H25N5O2. Further ADME parameters such as half-life and clearance have been characterized in preclinical studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for MLi-2 are limited. As a potent LRRK2 inhibitor, it has been evaluated in preclinical safety studies. No significant toxicity has been reported at efficacious doses.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
