Product Description
PKR-IN-C51 (compound 51) is an ATP-competitive double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50IC50 of 9 μM. PKR-IN-C51 inhibits intracellular PKR activation in a dose-dependent fashion in primary mouse macrophages.
PKR-IN-C51 (CAS#: 1314594-23-4) is an ATP-competitive double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) inhibitor. With a molecular formula of C23H21N5 and a molecular weight of 367.45 g/mol, it inhibits intracellular PKR activation and autophosphorylation in mouse macrophages with an IC50 of 9 μM and a Ki of 3.4 μM. PKR is a widely expressed Ser/Thr kinase activated by interferon-induced double-stranded RNA. The compound shows no obvious cytotoxicity. It is under investigation for treating viral infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain cancers.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PKR-IN-C51 targets protein kinase R (PKR), also known as EIF2AK2. PKR is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that is activated by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and plays a key role in the innate immune response to viral infections. It phosphorylates the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF2α, leading to inhibition of protein synthesis and viral replication. PKR-IN-C51 is an ATP-competitive inhibitor that blocks PKR activation and autophosphorylation.
ln Vitro
PKR-IN-C51 demonstrates potent inhibition of PKR kinase activity with an IC50 of 9 μM and a Ki of 3.4 μM. In primary mouse macrophages, it inhibits intracellular PKR activation in a dose-dependent manner. The compound shows no obvious cytotoxicity. Its ATP-competitive mechanism of action has been characterized in enzymatic assays. The compound's selectivity for PKR over other kinases has been evaluated.
ln Vivo
PKR-IN-C51 has been investigated for its therapeutic potential in treating viral infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain cancers by modulating PKR-mediated signaling pathways. As a PKR inhibitor, it may reduce excessive inflammatory responses and viral replication. In vivo efficacy in animal models of these diseases would be expected. However, detailed in vivo data are limited in publicly available sources. The compound is primarily used as a research tool for studying PKR function.
Enzyme Assay
PKR kinase activity assays are performed using recombinant human PKR enzyme and a peptide substrate (e.g., eIF2α-derived peptide) or myelin basic protein. The enzyme is incubated with the substrate and [γ-32P]ATP or fluorescently labeled ATP in kinase buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT). The reaction is incubated at 30°C for 30-60 minutes. Phosphorylated substrate is quantified by scintillation counting or fluorescence polarization. Test compounds are serially diluted and added to the reaction mixture. IC50 and Ki values are determined by non-linear regression analysis. Each concentration is tested in duplicate.
Cell Assay
Cellular PKR inhibition is evaluated in primary mouse macrophages or other cell lines. Cells are cultured in appropriate media at 37°C with 5% CO2 and treated with PKR-IN-C51 at various concentrations (0.1-100 μM). PKR activation is induced by dsRNA (poly I:C) or interferon treatment. PKR autophosphorylation and eIF2α phosphorylation are measured by Western blotting using phospho-specific antibodies. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or LDH assays. Cytokine production (e.g., IFN-β, TNF-α) is measured by ELISA. Each experiment includes appropriate positive controls (known PKR inhibitors) and vehicle controls.
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy is evaluated in animal models of viral infection, autoimmune disease, or cancer. PKR-IN-C51 is administered orally or intraperitoneally at doses determined by preclinical studies. Disease progression is monitored by clinical scores, viral load, or tumor growth. Tissue samples are collected for histopathological analysis and biochemical assays (PKR activity, eIF2α phosphorylation, cytokine levels). Sample sizes typically range from 8-12 animals per group. Detailed protocols are not publicly available.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
PKR-IN-C51 has a molecular weight of 367.45 g/mol and a molecular formula of C23H21N5. Purity: typically ≥99%. Solubility: DMSO. Storage: typically at -20°C. Bioavailability, half-life, and tissue distribution data are not publicly available. The compound is a research tool for studying PKR function and its role in inflammation, viral infection, and cancer.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Limited toxicology data are available for PKR-IN-C51. The compound shows no obvious cytotoxicity in cell-based assays. As a PKR inhibitor, potential toxicities would need to be characterized. Standard toxicology studies would include acute and subchronic toxicity in rodents, genotoxicity screening, and evaluation of effects on the immune system. No clinical trials have been reported for this compound. The compound is intended for research use only.
