Product Description
PKN1/2-IN-1 is a potent cell-penetrant and selective PKN2 (PRK2) inhibitor (IC50=16 nM; Ki=8 nM).
PKN1/2-IN-1 (CAS#: 942425-34-5) is a potent, cell-permeable, and selective small-molecule inhibitor of Protein Kinase N2 (PKN2, also known as PRK2). It is primarily used as a research tool to study the role of PKN1 and PKN2, which are effectors of Rho GTPases and are critical for cell survival in several tumor cell lines.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary targets are Protein Kinase N1 (PKN1) and Protein Kinase N2 (PKN2). It has a 14-fold higher selectivity for PKN2 (IC50 = 16 nM; Ki = 8 nM) over PKN1 (IC50 = 210 nM; Ki = 108 nM). This selectivity allows researchers to dissect the specific functions of the PKN1/2 isoforms in cellular processes.
ln Vitro
PKN1/2-IN-1 is a potent and selective PKN2 inhibitor with IC50 of 16 nM and Ki of 8 nM. In NanoBRET assays, it shows intracellular PKN2 binding with an IC50 of 2.1 uM. PKN proteins are critical for survival in several tumor cell lines including prostate and breast cancer, and this compound helps study that dependency.
ln Vivo
No specific in vivo activity data is available for this compound. However, due to its anticancer potential, it is likely evaluated in xenograft models of prostate or breast cancer to assess tumor growth inhibition and survival benefits. The membrane permeability and oral bioavailability predictions make it a candidate for such studies.
Enzyme Assay
For a cell-free biochemical assay, recombinant PKN1/2 enzymes (0.1-0.5 nM) are incubated with various concentrations of PKN1/2-IN-1 (0-500 nM) in a reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.01% Brij-35) and 10 uM ATP. After 30-60 min at 30degC, the reaction is quenched and ADP production is measured using a kinase-Glo or ADP-Glo kit. IC50 values are calculated.
Cell Assay
For intracellular target engagement studies, cells (e.g., HEK-293T) are seeded and treated with PKN1/2-IN-1 (0.1-10 uM) for 1-4 hours. After lysis, the NanoBRET assay is performed using a PKN2-NanoLuc fusion construct and a fluorescent tracer. The BRET signal is measured to determine the intracellular binding affinity (IC50 = 2.1 uM). Cell viability can be assessed via CellTiter-Glo after 72h of treatment.
Animal Protocol
A typical protocol for in vivo efficacy involves establishing subcutaneous xenografts of prostate cancer (e.g., PC-3) or breast cancer (e.g., MDA-MB-231) cells in immunocompromised mice. Once tumors reach ~150 mm3, mice are randomized and treated daily with PKN1/2-IN-1 at doses of 10-50 mg/kg via IP or IV injection. Tumor size and body weight are measured biweekly. At endpoint, tumors are harvested for Western blot analysis of PKN2 targets and markers of apoptosis (e.g., cleaved PARP).
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
With a molecular weight of 241.29 and a formula of C14H15N3O, the compound is cell-permeable and membrane permeable. It is stable for up to 3 years as a powder at -20degC and for 1 year in solvent at -80degC. Its solubility in common vehicles like DMSO facilitates both in vitro (1-10 mM stock) and in vivo (5-10% DMSO in PBS) applications.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
As a research chemical, specific toxicological data is limited. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed. It is not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic use. Users should consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling and hazard information. Eye and skin protection are recommended when handling the powder.
Additional Infomation
PKN1/2-IN-1 is classified as a kinase inhibitor with anticancer potential. It is a valuable tool for studying the PKN family in oncology research, particularly for prostate and breast cancer. It is for research use only and is not an approved drug. The compound is also useful for studying cell migration, as PKNs regulate cytoskeletal dynamics.
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.
