| Bioactivity | SNS-032 (BMS-387032) is a potent and selective inhibitor of CDK2, CDK7, and CDK9 with IC50s of 38 nM, 62 nM and 4 nM, respectively. SNS-032 has antitumor effect[1]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | SNS-032 has low sensitivity to CDK1 and CDK4 with IC50 of 480 nM and 925 nM, respectively. SNS-032 effectively kills chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells in vitro regardless of prognostic indicators and treatment history. Compared with flavopiridol and roscovitine, SNS-032 is more potent, both in inhibition of RNA synthesis and at induction of apoptosis. SNS-032 activity is readily reversible; removal of SNS-032 reactivates RNA polymerase II, which led to resynthesis of Mcl-1 and cell survival[1]. SNS-032 inhibits three dimensional capillary network formations of endothelial cells. SNS-032 completely prevents U87MG cell–mediated capillary formation of HUVECs. In addition, SNS-032 significantly prevents the production of VEGF in both cell lines, SNS-032 prevents in vitro angiogenesis, and this action is attributable to blocking of VEGF. Preclinical studies have shown that SNS-032 induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis across multiple cell lines[2]. SNS-032 blocks the cell cycle via inhibition of CDKs 2 and 7, and transcription via inhibition of CDKs 7 and 9. SNS-032 activity is unaffected by human serum[3]. SNS-032 induces a dose-dependent increase in annexin V staining and caspase-3 activation. At the molecular level, SNS-032 induces a marked dephosphorylation of serine 2 and 5 of RNA polymerase (RNA Pol) II and inhibits the expression of CDK2 and CDK9 and dephosphorylated CDK7[5]. | ||||||||||||
