| Bioactivity | BRD7389 is a specific RSK family kinase inhibitor with IC50s of 1.5 μM, 2.4 μM, and 1.2 μM for RSK1, RSK2, and RSK3, respectively. BRD7389 is a small-molecule inducer of insulin expression in pancreatic α-cells[1]. |
| Invitro | BRD7389 (0.425-6.8 μM) induces insulin expression in mouse α-cells after 3 days treatment. BRD7389 induces a dose-dependent up-regulation of insulin (Ins2) mRNA, peaking at 0.85 μM; 5 days treatment with BRD7389 results in greater induction of insulin gene expression, about 50-fold at 0.85 μM[1].BRD7389 (0.85-6.8μM) significantly up-regulates Pdx1 mRNA expression in mouse α-cell line[1].BRD7389 also increases β-cell-specific gene expression in primary human islet cells[1]. BRD7389 (1 μM; added 30 min prior to Carbachol treatment 48 h) fully abolishes carbachols timulated cell proliferation, but has little effect on the basal level of proliferation[2].
