KU 55933 is a potent and specific ATM kinase inhibitor that sensitizes human tumor cells to ionizing radiation and chemotherapeutic agents[1]. KU 55933 has an IC50 of 13nM and Ki of 2.2nM in vitro[2].
In vitro, The ATM inhibitor KU 55933 (10μM; 1h) suppresses cell proliferation and induces apoptosis by blocking Akt in cancer cells with overactivated Akt[3]. Inhibition of ATM with KU 55933 (10μM; 24h or 72h) sensitizes endometrial cancer cell lines to Olaparib[4]. KU 55933 (0.01-20μM; 24h) is neuroprotective against the doxorubicin-induced cell damage in UN- and RA-SH-SY5Y cells[5].
In vivo, Administration of KU 55933 (8mg/kg; 12 weeks; i.v.) to apolipoprotein E-deficient mice inhibited Smad1/5 activation in endothelial cells (ECs) in atherosclerosis-susceptible regions, thereby suppressing endothelial cell proliferation and inflammation and attenuating atherosclerotic lesions in these mice[3]. KU 55933 (1mg/kg; 4 weeks; i.p.) treatment inhibits tumor growth and metastasis in mouse mammary tumors in vivo through the inhibition of GLUT1 translocation and vimentin expression[6].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Ishikawa and Hec-108 cells |
Preparation Method | Ishikawa and Hec-108 cells were cultured to 30-50% confluence and then treated with Olaparib (50µM) alone or in combination with KU 55933 (10µM) for 24h. The cells were then harvested, washed with cold PBS and stained with PI and FITC-Annexin V. Apoptosis was detected by CytoFLEX and analyzed by CytExpert software. |
Reaction Conditions | 10μM; 24h |
Applications | Inhibition of ATM with KU 55933 sensitizes endometrial cancer cell lines to Olaparib. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Six-week-old male ApoE−/− mice |
Preparation Method | ApoE−/− mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) were tail-vein injected with KU 55933 (8mg/kg) or vehicle (DMSO in saline) for 12 weeks. After the experiment, biochemical analysis was performed on the mouse plasma, and the mouse aorta and aortic roots were stained with Oil Red O and H&E. |
Dosage form | 8mg/kg; 12 weeks; i.v. |
Applications | Administration of KU 55933 to apolipoprotein E-deficient mice inhibited Smad1/5 activation in endothelial cells (ECs) in atherosclerosis-susceptible regions, thereby suppressing endothelial cell proliferation and inflammation and attenuating atherosclerotic lesions in these mice. |
