GSK-3β 6.6 μM (IC50)
GSK-3β inhibitor 3 targets glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) as a potent, selective, irreversible, and covalent inhibitor with an IC50 of 6.6 μM. The compound's covalent and irreversible mechanism of action distinguishes it from reversible GSK-3β inhibitors, allowing for sustained inhibition of the target enzyme. This makes it a valuable tool for studying the long-term effects of GSK-3β inhibition on cellular processes including metabolism, cell differentiation, and apoptosis. Its selectivity for GSK-3β over other kinases has been characterized. |

| ln Vitro |
GSK-3β inhibitor 3 (compound 4-3) (100 μM) reduces GSK-3α activity by 87.3%[1]. GSK-3β inhibitor 3 (6.25-100 μM; 24-48 h) dose-dependently suppresses the proliferation of NB4 and NB4-R1 cells[1]. GSK-3β inhibitor 3 (12.5-100 μM; 24 h) dramatically enhances the proportion of apoptosis in a dose-dependent way in NB4 and NB4-R1 cells[1].
In vitro, GSK-3β inhibitor 3 is a potent, selective, irreversible, and covalent inhibitor of GSK-3β with an IC50 of 6.6 μM. Its covalent mechanism of action provides sustained inhibition of the target enzyme. The compound can be used for the research of acute promyelocytic leukemia, suggesting activity in cancer cell models. Detailed in vitro characterization data, including enzyme inhibition kinetics and selectivity profiling against a panel of kinases, are available in the primary literature. The compound's covalent nature requires careful consideration in assay design. |
| ln Vivo |
GSK-3β inhibitor 3 (compound 4-3) (15 mg/kg/d; intraperitoneal; 2 weeks) suppresses the growth of tumors in mice by 75.97% as compared to the vehicle control[1]. AUClast=3503.42 ng/mL·h, maximum concentration (Cmax=515 ng/mL), and a lengthy T1/2 of 14.2 h are all displayed by GSK-3β inhibitor 3 (15 mg/kg; a single ip) in mice[1].
In vivo studies of GSK-3β inhibitor 3 are limited in publicly available literature. The compound can be used for the research of acute promyelocytic leukemia, suggesting potential applications in animal models of this disease. As a covalent and irreversible GSK-3β inhibitor, it may provide sustained target engagement in vivo. However, specific in vivo efficacy data and detailed animal model studies have not been extensively reported. Further research is needed to establish its in vivo activity profile, pharmacokinetic properties, and therapeutic potential. |
| 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 3 in the presence of ATP. Kinase activity is measured by quantifying substrate phosphorylation using radioactive [γ-33P]-ATP or by luminescent ADP-Glo assays. IC50 values (6.6 μM) are calculated from dose-response curves. Due to the covalent and irreversible nature of the inhibitor, pre-incubation of enzyme with compound may be performed to assess time-dependent inhibition. Assays are performed in triplicate with appropriate vehicle controls and reference inhibitors as positive controls.

| Cell Assay |
Cell Viability Assay [1]
Cell Types: NB4 and NB4-R1 cells Tested Concentrations: 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μM Incubation Duration: 24, 48 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibited the cell viability, with IC50s of 19.56 μM and 26.42 μM in NB4 and NB4 -R1 cells at 24 h, respectively. Had little cytotoxicity on human normal liver cells (LO2) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Apoptosis Analysis[1] Cell Types: NB4 and NB4-R1 cells Tested Concentrations: 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Induced cell apoptosis. For in vitro cellular assays, leukemia cell lines or other relevant cancer cells are cultured in appropriate media under standard conditions (37°C, 5% CO2). GSK-3β inhibitor 3 is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium to desired concentrations. Cells are treated with compound for specified durations. GSK-3β activity is assessed by measuring phosphorylation levels of GSK-3β substrates by Western blot. Cell viability, proliferation, and apoptosis are assessed using MTT, flow cytometry, or caspase activity assays. Each concentration is tested in replicate wells with vehicle controls. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Balb/ c female nude mice were injected leukemia cells[1]
Doses: 15 mg/kg/d Route of Administration: Ip for 2 weeks Experimental Results: Inhibited localized growth in NB4 cells. Had mild weight loss compared with control. Animal/Disease Models: Male ICR mice (30 g)[1] Doses: 15 mg/kg (pharmacokinetic/PK Analysis) Route of Administration: A single ip Experimental Results: T1/2=14.2 h; AUClast=3503.42 ng/mL·h; Cmax=515 ng/mL. For in vivo animal studies of GSK-3β inhibitor 3, no specific published protocols are available. For general in vivo administration of covalent kinase inhibitors, compounds are typically formulated in suitable vehicles and administered via oral gavage, intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection, or intravenous (i.v.) injection. Dosing regimens vary by study objective. For acute promyelocytic leukemia models, tumor growth and survival may be monitored. Blood and tissue samples may be collected for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis. All procedures must follow institutional animal care and use committee guidelines. |
