CRT0066101 is a potent and orally active PKD inhibitor with IC50 values of 1 nM, 2.5 nM and 2 nM for PKD1, PKD2, and PKD3, respectively [1]. CRT0066101 is also a potent PIM2 inhibitor with an IC50 of ~135.7 nM. CRT0066101 exhibits anti-inflammatory activity in mice LPS -induced lung injury models, and has anticancer effects [1] [2] [3].
In Vivo, CRT0066101 (80 mg/kg/day; oral gavage; once daily; for 21 days) in Panc-1 orthotopic model potently blocks tumor growth in vivo[1]. CRT0066101 (10 mg/kg, i.p., every two days for 3 times) exhibits a protective effect against LPS-induced pneumonia and alleviates lung damage in C57BL/6J mice[3].
In Vitro, CRT0066101 (5 µM; 1 h) blockS both the basal and NT-induced pS916-PKD1/2 (activated PKD1/2) in Panc-1 and Panc-28 cells. CRT0066101 abrogates NT-induced phosphorylation of Hsp27 (pS82-Hsp27), attenuates PKD1-mediated NF-κB activation, and abrogates expression of NF-κB-dependent-dependent proliferative and pro-survival proteins[1]. CRT0066101 significantly inhibits Panc-1 cell proliferation, with an IC50 value of 1 µM. CRT0066101 results in a 6-10 fold induction of apoptosis in Panc-1 cells. CRT0066101 significantly reduces cell proliferation of Colo357, Panc-1, MiaPaCa-2, and AsPC-1 cells but had a modest effect in Capan-2 cells[1].
