SIK2
Salt-inducible kinase 2 (SIK2), also known as SIK2. SIK2 plays crucial roles in regulating cell cycle progression, glucose metabolism, apoptosis, and the Warburg effect in cancer cells. Related family members SIK1 (IC50=0.92 nM) and SIK3 (IC50=9.6 nM) may also be inhibited with varying selectivity, depending on the specific compound. HG-9-91-01 is a highly selective SIK inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.92 nM, 6.6 nM and 9.6 nM for SIK1, SIK2 and SIK3 respectively. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, SIK2-IN-1 exerts its effects by specifically inhibiting the activity of SIK2, disrupting downstream signaling pathways including PI3K-Akt-mTOR, Hippo-YAP, and cAMP-PKA. In ovarian cancer cells, SIK2 promotes glucose metabolism and enhances the Warburg effect via PI3K/AKT pathway. SIK2-IN-1 leads to reduced cell proliferation and increased apoptosis. In breast cancer, SIK2 acts as a tumor suppressor, and SIK2-IN-1 modulates this activity.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, SIK2 overexpression has been shown to result in smaller tumor sizes in xenograft models, indicating the therapeutic promise of SIK2 modulators. SIK2-IN-1 has implications in metabolic regulation, particularly concerning lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity. It regulates fatty acid synthesis and glucose metabolism, making it a target for diabetes research. Further in vivo efficacy studies are ongoing.

| Enzyme Assay |
SIK2 kinase activity assay protocol: Recombinant human SIK2 is incubated with increasing concentrations of SIK2-IN-1 (0-1000 nM) in reaction buffer (40 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 20 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mg/mL BSA, 50 uM ATP) with a peptide substrate (e.g., AMARA peptide) for 30 min at 30degC. Kinase activity is measured using ADP-Glo or radiometric [gamma-33P]-ATP incorporation. The IC50 is calculated by non-linear regression analysis from triplicate measurements.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell proliferation assay protocol: Cancer cells (e.g., ovarian OVCAR3 or breast MDA-MB-231 cells) are seeded in 96-well plates (5,000 cells/well) and cultured overnight. Cells are treated with SIK2-IN-1 at concentrations ranging from 0-100 uM for 48-72 hours. Cell viability is measured using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assay. For signaling studies, cells are treated with SIK2-IN-1 (0-10 uM) for 2-24 hours, lysed, and analyzed by Western blotting for p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-CREB, and p-YAP.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Xenograft tumor model protocol (example): Female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 weeks old) are subcutaneously implanted with ovarian cancer cells (5×10⁶ cells/mouse). When tumors reach ~100-150 mm3, mice are randomized into groups (n=6-8). SIK2-IN-1 is administered intraperitoneally or orally at doses of 10-50 mg/kg, daily for 14-21 days. Tumor volume is measured every 2-3 days using calipers. Tumor tissues are collected for immunohistochemistry (Ki-67, cleaved caspase-3) and Western blotting.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
PK data for SIK2-IN-1 are not detailed in the literature. As a small molecule (MW 547.6), it is expected to have reasonable oral bioavailability and tissue distribution. Solubility should be evaluated in DMSO, PEG300, or other suitable vehicles. Pharmacokinetic parameters (half-life, Cmax, AUC, clearance) can be determined in rodent models via LC-MS/MS after intravenous or oral administration at doses of 1-10 mg/kg.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for SIK2-IN-1 are limited. The compound is intended for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. Based on its mechanism of inhibiting SIK2, which regulates metabolic pathways and cell survival, potential on-target toxicities could include metabolic disturbances. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound.

| Additional Infomation |
SIK2-IN-1 is a research compound that has not entered clinical trials or received regulatory approval. Salt-inducible kinases (SIKs) are emerging targets for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, as well as metabolic disorders and certain cancers. GLPG3970 is a first-in-class SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor in clinical development. SIK2-IN-1 is a valuable tool for preclinical research on SIK family biology.
