Chemical Structure

Biological activities

PI-103 is a dual inhibitor of phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). PI-103 inhibits mTORC1, mTORC2 and PI3K with IC50s of 20, 83 and 8 nM, respectively. [1] In vitro, in human leukemic cell lines and in primary blast cells from acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients, PI-103 inhibits constitutive and growth factor-induced PI3K/Akt and mTORC1 activation. PI-103 is essentially cytostatic for cell lines and induces cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. In blast cells, PI-103 inhibits leukemic proliferation, the clonogenicity of leukemic progenitors and induces mitochondrial apoptosis, especially in the compartment containing leukemic stem cells. PI-103 has additive proapoptotic effects with etoposide in blast cells and in immature leukemic cells. [2] PI-103 induces proliferative arrest in a panel of glioma cell lines assayed by flow cytometry. PI-103 inhibits mTOR, and blocks activation of p-Akt in response to mTOR inhibition. PI-103 also blocks proliferation in a broad range of glioma cell lines. [3] PI-103 inhibits in vitro cell growth for proliferation of 37-31E and 37-31E-F3 melanoma cell lines. PI-103 inhibits Akt phosphorylation in response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) by 50% at 17.5 nM. PI-103 and sorafenib cooperate inhibiting Akt and extracellular regulated protein kinases (Erk) 1/2 phosphorylation and in vitro cell growth for proliferation in response to HGF in a cell line dependent manner. PI-103 induces the anti-apoptotic BH3 family proteins Mcl1, Bcl2 and BclxL favoring, the in vitro survival of sorafenib treated melanoma cells. [4] PI-103 inhibits PI3K activity and reduces AKt phosphorylation. Continuous exposure to PI-103 inhibits tumor cell clonogenicity. Inhibition of class I PI3K activity with PI-103 reduces radiation survival of tumor cells with EGFR overexpression or RAS mutation. Tumor cells with activated PI3K are radiosensitized by PI-103. PI-103 sensitization is accompanied by increased G2 delay and persistence of γH2AX foci. [5] PI-103 shows significant activity in vivo, reducing average tumor size by 4-fold after 18 days. And PI-103 treatment is cytostatic to glioma xenografts in vivo. [3] PI-103 induces immunosuppression promoting in vivo tumor growth and inhibiting apoptosis. [4]

Protocols

PI-103 is dissolved as concentrated stock solution in DMSO and stored at -80°C. [5]
