Bioactivity | Alsterpaullone (9-Nitropaullone) is a potent CDK inhibitor, with IC50s of 35 nM, 15 nM, 200 nM and 40 nM for CDK1/cyclin B, CDK2/cyclin A, CDK2/cyclin E and CDK5/p35, respectively. Alsterpaullone also competes with ATP for binding to GSK-3alpha/GSK-3beta with IC50s of both 4 nM. Alsterpaullone has antitumor activity, and possesses potential for the study in neurodegenerative and proliferative disorders[1]. Alsterpaullone induces apoptosis in leukemia cell line[2]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Alsterpaullone (0.3, 1, 3 μM; 8 hours) induces apoptosis in leukemia cell line[2].Alsterpaullone (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 μM; 48 and 72 hours) inhibits the growth of HeLa cells in dose-and time-dependent manner. Treatment with Alsterpaullone causes a time-dependent inhibition of cell growth too[3]. Alsterpaullone (20 μM) induces cell death depending on caspase activity[3].
