| ln Vitro | PIK-93 inhibits PI3Kγ and PI4KIIIβ, with IC50 values of 16 nM and 19 nM, respectively. PIK-93 also inhibits other members of PI3Ks, including PI3Kα, β, and δ, with IC50 values of 39 nM, 0.59 μM, and 0.12 μM, respectively. Even at a concentration of 10 M, PIK-93 has no discernible inhibitory effect on a panel of other kinases[1]. PIK-93 (0.5 M-1 M) decreases the consolidation and stability of the leading edge formed after treatment with uniform f-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP) in differentiated HL60 (dHL60) cells. The fMLP-dependent accumulation of total F-actin is altered by PIK-93, but not in terms of quantity. PIK-93 increases cell turning frequency while decreasing the chemotactic index in fMLP gradients[2]. In COS-7 cells, PIK-93 (250 nM) successfully prevents the buildup of FL-Cer and the CERT-PH domain in the Golgi. The same concentration of PIK-93 also significantly reduces the ability of endogenous ceramide to transform into sphingomyelin when labeled with [3H]serine. These facts suggest that PI4KIIIβ plays a critical role in the regulation of spingomyelin synthesis as well as ceramide transport between the ER and Golgi[3]. PIK-93 (300 nM) inhibits net Ca2+ entry and carbachol-induced translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane in T6.11 cells[4]. According to a recent study, PIK-93 has anti-enterovirus properties because it inhibits the replication of the poliovirus (PV) and the hepatitis C virus (HCV), with EC50 values of 0.14 µM and 1.9 µM, respectively[5]. |

| Enzyme Assay | Standard TLC lipid kinase activity assays are used to calculate IC50 values. In order to carry out kinase reactions, a reaction mixture containing kinase, PIK-93 (2% DMSO final concentration), buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2), and freshly sonicated phosphatidylinositol (100 µg/mL) must be prepared. A final concentration of 10 or 100 µM is used to start the reactions, and they are then allowed to continue for 20 min at room temperature. The starting material for the reactions is ATP containing 10 µCi of γ-32P-ATP. The addition of 105 µL 1N HCl and 160 l of CHCl3:MeOH (1:1) then ends the reactions in preparation for TLC analysis. The organic phase is transferred to a new tube using a gel loading pipette tip that has been CHCl3-precoated after the biphasic mixture has been vortexed and briefly centrifuged. In a 65:35 solution of n-propanol:1M acetic acid, this extract is spotted on TLC plates and developed for 3–4 hours. Following drying, the TLC plates are shown to a phosphorimager screen and quantitated. As a two-fold dilution from the highest concentration of 100 μM, kinase activity is typically assessed at 10–12 concentrations of PIK–93. |
| Cell Assay | For actin staining, dHL60 cells are preincubated in suspension with PIK-93 or vehicle for 40 min, centrifuged for 5 min at 2000 rpm at room temperature in a J6-B centrifuge, resuspended in mHBSS containing the appropriate agent at the same concentration, and then allowed to adhere to fibronectin-covered coverslips for 3 min. Rhodamine-phalloidin (10 units/mL) is used to stain cells that have been fixed in 3.7% PFA for 15 minutes. |
