KU-177
KU-177 is a potent inhibitor of Hsp90 ATPase homologue 1 (Aha1), ablates Aha1-driven enhancement of Hsp90-dependent tau aggregation. KU-177 also disrupts Aha1/Hsp90 interactions (IC50=4.08 μM) without inhibition of Hsp90’s ATPase activity. KU-177 can be used for tauopathies research.

In Vitro
KU-177 (50 μM; 48 h) hampers the proliferation of flow MRD-positive cells in both primary multiple myeloma (MM) and recurrent MM patient samples[1].
KU-177 (30 μM; 48 h) inhibits proteasome activity in AHSA1 WT/OE cells, PSMD2 WT/OE cells and ANBL6 WT/DR cells[1].
KU-177 abrogates the cellular proliferation and PI resistance induced by elevated AHSA1, and decreases the expression of CDK6 and PSMD2[1].
KU-177 (25 μM; 30 min; 37 °C) inhibits recombinant P301L tau aggregation without inhibiting Hsp90 to refold luciferase[2].
KU-177 (10 μM; 24 h) exhibits the ability to disrupt interactions between Aha1 and Hsp90 in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells and SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells, without significantly inhibition on Hsp90 client protein (Her2)[2].
