Brief Description

ZSTK474 inhibits class I PI3K isoforms with IC50 of 37 nM, mostly PI3Kδ.
IC50 value: 37 nM [1]
Target: class I PI3K
in vitro: ZSTK474 at 1 μM potently reduces PI3K activity to 4.7% of the control level, whereas LY2194002 only reduces the activity to 44.6% of the control. ZSTK474 inhibits the activities of recombinant p110β, -γ, and -δ with IC50 of 17 nM, 53 nM, and 6 nM, respectively. ZSTK474 shows potent antiproliferative activity against a panel of 39 human cancer cell lines with mean GI50 of 0.32 μM, more effectively than that of LY294002 or wortmannin with mean GI50 of 7.4 μM or 10 μM, respectively. ZSTK474 treatment at 1 μM blocks membrane ruffling and generation of PIP3 induced by platelet-derived growth factor in murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). ZSTK474 at 10 μM induces apoptosis in OVCAR3 cells, and induces complete G1-phase arrest but not apoptosis in A549 cells. ZSTK474 treatment at 0.5 μM significantly decreases the level of phosphorylated Akt and GSK-3β, as well as the cyclin D1 protein expression. ZSTK474 also inhibits the phosphorylation of other downstream signaling components that are involved in regulating cell proliferation including FKHRL1, FKHR, TSC-2, mTOR, and p70S6K in a dose-dependent manner [1]. ZSTK474 does not inhibit mTOR at 0.1 μM, and even at a concentration of 100 μM, ZSTK474 inhibits mTOR activity less than 40% [2].
