Biological Activity

Bioactivity / Mechanism

GSK923295 inhibits microtubule-stimulated CENP-E ATPase activity through an allosteric mechanism uncompetitive with ATP and microtubules. The reported human CENP-E Ki was 3.2 ± 0.2 nM (SD; n = 4). Biochemical experiments supported stabilization of a strongly microtubule-bound motor state and slowed inorganic-phosphate release. Murine CENP-E was less sensitive than the human enzyme. [1]

Literature-reported observations and conditions; not Adooq-tested protocols or general treatment recommendations.

Target & Activity

Target Activity Value
CENP-E Ki 3.2 nM

In Vitro Studies

In a 237-line human tumor-cell panel, 72-hour GSK923295 exposure gave a median GI50 of 32 nM and an average of 253 nM. Responses ranged from 12 nM to >10,000 nM; HT-3 and SNU-1 were among the least sensitive lines. These growth-inhibition endpoints do not establish uniform cytotoxicity. [1]

In Cal51 cells, 50 nM GSK923295 combined with 5 nM paclitaxel or 4 nM vinorelbine increased daughter-cell death after early focusing of multipolar spindles during 48–72-hour imaging. Adding GSK923295 did not detectably impair spindle focusing. These results concern the tested combinations and cellular context. [2]

CENP-E ATPase inhibition and microtubule-bound-state stabilization

Biochemical assay · Purified human, murine and canine CENP-E motor domains; human I182L/T183A mutant [1]

GSK923295 inhibited microtubule-stimulated ATPase uncompetitively with respect to ATP and microtubules. Copelleting and phosphate-release experiments supported stabilization of a strongly microtubule-bound motor state. Murine CENP-E was less sensitive than human CENP-E.

Low-dose CENP-E inhibition in microtubule-poison-treated Cal51 cells

Cell-based study · Cal51 breast cancer cells with histone H2B-mScarlet and tubulin-eGFP reporters [2]

Adding 50 nM GSK923295 to low-dose paclitaxel or vinorelbine increased daughter-cell death among cells that focused multipolar spindles before anaphase. GSK923295 did not detectably impair spindle focusing in these conditions. Vinorelbine combinations also increased polar chromosome misalignment and overall daughter-cell death.

In Vivo Studies

GSK923295A at 125 mg/kg intraperitoneally produced objective responses in 13 of 35 evaluable pediatric solid tumor xenograft models. Activity varied by model, with no neuroblastoma regressions. Excessive toxicity excluded all eight ALL xenograft models; treated-panel mortality was 64.4% in ALL-bearing mice versus 5.2% across solid tumor models. The results do not establish clinical efficacy or tolerability. [3]
