SW393109
SW393109 is a CDK8 inhibitor with an IC50 of 3.16 nM and an EC50 of 5 nM against the DKK1 reporter gene. SW393109 inhibits IFNγ-induced phosphorylation of STAT1 S727, impairs the EWSR1::FLI1 transcriptional program in Ewing sarcoma cells and suppresses tumor cell proliferation. SW393109 acts as a gain-of-function molecular trap that induces the retention of the CDK8 kinase module (CKM) and Mediator complex on chromatin. SW393109 can be used in studies related to Ewing sarcoma.

Biological Activity
|
CDK8 3.16 nM (IC50) |
DKK1 reporter gene 5 nM (EC50) |
SW393109 potently inhibits the kinase activity of the purified intact CDK8 kinase module in vitro, with an IC50 of 3.16 nM[1].
SW393109 induces the EWSR1::FLI1-repressed DKK1-nLuc reporter gene in A-673 EF-SMASh; DKK1-nLuc Ewing sarcoma cells, with an EC50 of 5 nM[1].
SW393109 (3-300 nM) fully inhibits IFNγ-induced STAT1S727 phosphorylation in A-673 Ewing sarcoma cells at high concentrations, while only partially inhibits this process at low concentrations[1].
SW393109 (100 nM; 24 h) alters the EWSR1::FLI1 transcriptional program in A-673 and TC-32 Ewing sarcoma cells, with gene expression changes consistent with those induced by targeted inhibition of CDK8[1].
SW393109 (0.0001-10 μM; 4-5 days) inhibits the proliferation of A-673 and TC-32 Ewing sarcoma cells, and selective sensitivity is observed in cell lines driven by transcription fusion oncoproteins[1].
SW393109 (100 nM; 24 h) induces sequestration of the CDK8 kinase module with the core mediator complex in A-673 Ewing sarcoma cells, thereby enhancing the stability and binding of the complex[1].
SW393109 (100 nM; 24 h) induces global chromatin retention of the CDK8 kinase module and core mediator complex in A-673 Ewing sarcoma cells, with enhanced retention at regions containing a single GGAA motif[1].
