GSK429286AS1474

GSK429286A slightly inhibits RSK and p70S6K with IC50 of 0.78 μM and 1.94 μM, respectively. GSK429286A significantly inhibits rat aortic ring dilation with IC50 of 190 nM. ^[1] GSK429286A at 1 μM reduces ROCK2 activity over 20-fold, under conditions in which the only other kinase tested that is significantly inhibited is MSK1 whose activity is reduced ~5-fold. GSK429286A is a more selective ROCK2 inhibitor than the widely utilized ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 as assessed on kinase-specificity panel, and does not significantly inhibit LRRK2 even at doses as high as 30 μM (500-fold higher than IC50 of inhibition of ROCK2). Like GSK269962A but not sunitinib, GSK429286A treatment at 10 μM ablates basal or G14V-Rho mutant induced phosphorylation of MYPT at Thr850 in HEK-293 cells to a similar extent as H-1152 and Y-27632, consistent with ROCK mediating this phosphorylation, whereas GSK429286A does not inhibit ERM protein phosphorylation either in the presence or absence of G14V-Rho. ^[2]
