Description
GSK429286A is a selective inhibitor of ROCK1 and ROCK2 with IC50 of 14 nM and 63 nM, respectively.
Storage
2 years -20 centigrade Powder; 2 weeks 4 centigrade in DMSO; 6 months -80 centigrade in DMSO.
Molecular Formula
C21H16F4N4O2
Chemical Name
N-(6-fluoro-1H-indazol-5-yl)-2-methyl-6-oxo-4-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxamide
Solubility
DMSO 87 mg/mL; Water <1 mg/mL; Ethanol 4 mg/mL
In vitro
GSK429286A slightly inhibits RSK and p70S6K with IC50 of 0.78 μM and 1.94 μM, respectively. GSK429286A significantly inhibits rat aortic ring dilation with IC50 of 190 nM. GSK429286A at 1 μM reduces ROCK2 activity over 20-fold, under conditions in which the only other kinase tested that is significantly inhibited is MSK1 whose activity is reduced ~5-fold. GSK429286A is a more selective ROCK2 inhibitor than the widely utilized ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 as assessed on kinase-specificity panel, and does not significantly inhibit LRRK2 even at doses as high as 30 μM (500-fold higher than IC50 of inhibition of ROCK2). Like GSK269962A but not sunitinib, GSK429286A treatment at 10 μM ablates basal or G14V-Rho mutant induced phosphorylation of MYPT at Thr850 in HEK-293 cells to a similar extent as H-1152 and Y-27632, consistent with ROCK mediating this phosphorylation, whereas GSK429286A does not inhibit ERM protein phosphorylation either in the presence or absence of G14V-Rho.
In vivo
GSK429286A has 61% oral bioavailability in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Oral administration of GSK429286A at single doses of 3-30 mg/kg dramatically reduces mean arterial pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) in a dose-dependent manner, with a maximum decrease of 50 mmHg after approximately 2 hours treatment at dose of 30 mg/kg.
