AKT1-IN-13
AKT1-IN-13 is an orally active AKT1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 5.17 μM. AKT1-IN-13 also exhibits high inhibitory activity against PAK1, PKA, MAP2K1 (MEK1 / MAPKK1) and MAPK1 (ERK2). AKT1-IN-13 induces cell apoptosis, activates the pro-apoptotic protein BAX, inhibits the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, and activates caspase 3 simultaneously. As a cytotoxic agent, AKT1-IN-13 exerts a killing effect on orthotopically transplanted liver cancer in an AKT1-dependent manner. AKT1-IN-13 can be used in studies related to hepatocellular carcinoma.

AKT1-IN-13 (Compound 17) (1.0 μM; 50 min) is a multi-target kinase inhibitor that potently inhibits AKT1 (with an inhibition rate of 95% at 1 μM), and exhibits an inhibition rate of > 80% against another 4 kinases (PAK1, PKA, MAP2K1, MAPK1) at 1 μM[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (72 h) potently inhibits the proliferation of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells, with an IC50 of 2.09 μM and a selectivity index as high as 11.53[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 48 h) induces apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 48 h) inhibits the migration of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 24 h) inhibits the invasion of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 48 h) reduces the mitochondrial transmembrane potential of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner in vitro[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 48 h) induces G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner in vitro[1].
AKT1-IN-13 (2-6 μM; 48 h) inhibits AKT phosphorylation and activates the apoptotic pathway in a concentration-dependent manner in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells in vitro, reduces p-AKT levels, and upregulates the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins[1].
