IC50: 5 nM (ALK2 WT), 3 nM (ALK2 G328V), 6 nM (ALK2 R206H), 6 nM (ALK2 R258G), 2144 nM (ALK5)[1]
M4K2234 targets ALK1 (activin receptor-like kinase 1) and ALK2 (activin receptor-like kinase 2), which are type I receptors of the TGF-beta superfamily involved in BMP signaling. It is highly selective for ALK1 (IC50 = 7 nM) and ALK2 (IC50 = 14 nM) over ALK3 (168 nM), ALK4 (1,660 nM), ALK5 (1,950 nM), ALK6 (88 nM), and 30 additional kinases at 1 uM. |

| ln Vitro |
M4K2234 (0-5 μM) exhibits inhibitory effects against ALK2 mutants associated to DIPG with IC50s of 5, 3, 6 and 6 nM for WT, G328V, R206H and R258G, respectively[1].
M4K2234 inhibits BMP7-stimulated reporter gene activity with an IC50 of 16 nM. It specifically blocks BMP signaling by inhibiting the phosphorylation of SMAD1/5/8. This compound is used as a chemical probe for ALK1 and ALK2 protein kinases and can be used for the investigation of ALK1/2-mediated biological processes and related diseases such as diffuse midline glioma (DMG) and fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). |

Dedicated in vivo efficacy studies for M4K2234 are not detailed. As an orally active, highly selective inhibitor of ALK1 and ALK2, it is expected to show efficacy in mouse models of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) or fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), where aberrant BMP signaling drives pathology. |
| Enzyme Assay |
A biochemical ALK1 and ALK2 kinase inhibition assay is performed using purified recombinant ALK1 or ALK2 enzyme. Increasing concentrations of M4K2234 are pre-incubated with the enzyme and ATP. A peptide substrate is added, and phosphorylation is measured using a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) or radiometric method to determine IC50 values (7 nM for ALK1, 14 nM for ALK2). Selectivity is assessed against a panel of other kinases.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cellular assays, cells expressing a BMP-responsive luciferase reporter (BRE-Luc) are treated with BMP7 to stimulate signaling. Cells are pre-incubated with increasing concentrations of M4K2234 (0.1-1000 nM) for 1-2 hours, then BMP7 is added. After 16-24 hours, luciferase activity is measured to calculate the IC50 of 16 nM. SMAD1/5/8 phosphorylation is assessed by Western blot.
