| Targets |
GSK-3β inhibitor 14 targets glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) as a weak inhibitor with an IC50 >100 μM. The compound is a benzothiazepinone derivative (1,5-Benzothiazepin-4(5H)-one, 2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-5-(phenylmethyl)-). Its weak inhibitory activity makes it a useful tool as a negative control or reference compound in GSK-3β inhibition studies. The compound's low potency may also be useful for studying the structural requirements for GSK-3β inhibition and for understanding the mechanism of action of more potent benzothiazepinone derivatives.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, GSK-3β inhibitor 14 is characterized as a weak GSK-3β inhibitor with an IC50 >100 μM. As a benzothiazepinone derivative, it represents a chemical scaffold that has been explored for GSK-3β inhibition. The compound's low potency (IC50 >100 μM) makes it a useful reference compound or negative control in GSK-3β inhibitor screening assays. It can be used to validate assay conditions and to distinguish specific GSK-3β inhibition from non-specific effects. Detailed in vitro characterization data are available in the primary literature.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo studies of GSK-3β inhibitor 14 are not reported in publicly available literature, consistent with its characterization as a weak GSK-3β inhibitor (IC50 >100 μM). Given its low potency, the compound is unlikely to produce significant pharmacological effects in vivo at reasonable doses. It may be used as a negative control compound in animal studies to demonstrate the specificity of more potent GSK-3β inhibitors. No specific in vivo efficacy data or animal model studies have been reported.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For GSK-3β kinase activity assays, recombinant human GSK-3β enzyme is incubated with appropriate peptide substrates and varying concentrations of GSK-3β inhibitor 14 (typically ranging from 1 μM to 300 μM or higher) in the presence of ATP. Kinase activity is measured by quantifying substrate phosphorylation using radioactive or luminescent methods. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Given the weak potency (IC50 >100 μM), high concentrations of the compound are required to observe significant inhibition. Assays are performed in triplicate with appropriate vehicle controls and reference inhibitors as positive controls.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, cell lines of interest are cultured in appropriate media under standard conditions (37°C, 5% CO2). GSK-3β inhibitor 14 is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium to desired concentrations (typically including high concentrations >100 μM due to weak potency). Cells are treated with compound for specified durations. GSK-3β activity is assessed by measuring phosphorylation levels of GSK-3β substrates such as tau protein or glycogen synthase by Western blot. Due to the compound's weak activity, it may serve as a negative control in cellular assays. Each concentration is tested in replicate wells with vehicle controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies of GSK-3β inhibitor 14, no specific published protocols are available. Given the compound's weak GSK-3β inhibitory activity (IC50 >100 μM), it is unlikely to be used for in vivo efficacy studies. It may be employed as a negative control compound in pharmacokinetic or toxicology studies to distinguish specific effects of more potent GSK-3β inhibitors. All procedures must follow institutional animal care and use committee guidelines.
