Biological Activity: BI-5521 is an orally active GSK-3 inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 1.1 nM against GSK-3β. BI-5521 targets the two GSK-3 isoforms with similar potency and exhibits potent inhibitory activity against DYRK1A. By modulating GSK-3 activity, BI-5521 inhibits tumor proliferation and cancer cell growth, exerts cytotoxic effects, and reduces cancer cell viability. It shows consistent chemosensitivity across all subtypes of rhabdomyosarcoma, produces synergistic growth inhibitory effects when combined with SOS1 inhibitors, reduces oral glucose levels, regulates the myofibroblast differentiation pathway, decreases the nuclear localization of YAP/SMAD2/3, and lowers the positive rate of α-SMA in fibroblasts without affecting the apoptosis of CD4⁺ T cells. BI-5521 can be used in the research of non-small cell lung cancer, pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma, type 2 diabetes, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, Alzheimer's disease, bipolar disorder, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]}.
