Chemical Structure

Biological activities

BIX02189 is a selective and potent MEK5 inhibitor. The IC50 value of BIX02189 against MEK5 is 1.5 nM. BIX02189 inhibits ERK5 catalytic activity with IC50 value of 59 nM. BIX02189 also inhibits CSF1R (FMS), JAK3, LCK, and RPS6KA6 (RSK4) with IC50 values of 46, 440, 250 and 990 nM, respectively. In vitro, BIX02189 inhibits MEF2 driven luciferase gene expression in a dose dependent manner in HeLa and HEK293 cells. BIX02189 also inhibits phosphorylation of ERK5 in a dose dependent manner, without affecting phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in sorbitol-stimulated HeLa cells. However, BIX02189 does not inhibit phosphorylation of p38 and JNK1/2 MAPKs in sorbitol activated HeLa cells and does not affect catalytic activity of p38 and JNK2 directly. BIX02189 inhibits transcriptional activation of MEF2C, a downstream substrate of MEK5/ERK5 signaling cascade, in a trans-reporter system.[1] BIX02189 suppresses cadmium chloride-induced ERK5 but not ERK1/2 phosphorylation in HK-2 cells. BIX02189 treatment also suppresses the cadmium chloride-induced increase of phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) and activating transcription factor-1 (ATF-1). Furthermore, BIX02189 treatment enhances cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and increases the level of cytoplasmic nucleosomes in HK-2 cells exposed to cadmium chloride.[2] BIX02189 (10 μM) reduces myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) transcriptional activity and blunts hypertrophic responses in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) stimulated by isoproterenol. BIX02189 also promotes the sorbitol induced apoptosis in NRCMs.[3]

Protocols

In vitro: BIX02189 is dissolved in DMSO.[2]
