2-THIO(3-IODOBENZYL)-5-(1-PYRIDYL)-[1,3,4]-OXADIAZOLE Usage And Synthesis

Definition

ChEBI: 2-[(3-iodophenyl)methylthio]-5-pyridin-4-yl-1,3,4-oxadiazole is an aryl sulfide.

Biological Activity

gsk-3β inhibitor ii is a gsk-3β inhibitor.glycogen synthase kinase-3 (gsk-3), a protein-serine kinase, is implicated in the hormonal control of various regulatory proteins. a number of substrates have been identified, which implicates gsk-3 in the regulation of several physiological processes. moreover, it has been reported that compounds that specifically inhibit gsk-3 activity may be useful in the treatment of diabetes.

in vitro

in a previous study, by using a virtual screening strategy based on a methodology derived from the cats molecular descriptor, a novel compound class including gsk-3β inhibitor ii with inhibitory activity against the gsk-3 enzyme was identified via scaffold hopping. gsk-3β inhibitor ii was found to be a potent inhibitor of gsk-3β with the ic50 value of 390 nm. however, gsk-3β inhibitor ii was not able to inhibit another gsk-3 isoform, gsk-3α [1]. another study found that gsk-3β inhibitor ii could block the functional regulation of p53 through inhibiting gsk-3β, decreasing mdm2 levels, and modulating mitochondrial p53 apoptotic signaling [2].

IC 50

390 nm for gsk-3β
