PT109 is an orally active, blood-brain barrier permeable multi-kinase inhibitor. By inhibiting PTBP1, PT109 promotes the switch of pyruvate kinase isoform from PKM2 to PKM1, thereby effectively inhibiting the proliferation and migration of glioblastoma multiforme and inducing its reprogramming into oligodendrocytes. PT109 also targets and regulates key signaling molecules such as JNK, SGK1, GSK3β to exert neuroprotective effects including promoting neurogenesis, inducing synapse formation and alleviating neuroinflammation. In Alzheimer's disease models, PT109 exhibits significant efficacy in improving spatial learning ability, along with excellent in vivo pharmacokinetic properties. PT109 can be used to investigate metabolic reprogramming of glioblastoma multiforme and neuroprotective mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease.

PT109 (10-20 μM; 24 h, 72 h) reduces the proteolytic activity and protein expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in a dose-dependent manner in T98G and U251 human glioblastoma cells, downregulates the expression of stem cell, astrocyte and neuron markers, while upregulating the expression of oligodendrocyte markers (MBP, MOG), induces morphological changes in T98G, U251 and U87 human glioblastoma cells[1].
PT109 (10-20 μM; 72 h, 1-7 days) reduces the protein levels of PTBP1 and PKM2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner, while increasing the PKM1 level and the PKM1/PKM2 ratio, in human glioblastoma U251 cells, with the most significant effect observed at 20 μM for 7 days[1].
PT109 (10 μM; 3 d) promotes the differentiation of C17.2 mouse neural stem cells into cholinergic neurons, upregulates the expression of neurogenesis markers and cholinergic markers, and does not induce astrocyte differentiation[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
