<p style=/line-height:25px/>IPA-3 is a selective non-ATP competitive PAK1 inhibitor with IC50 of 2.5 μM, no inhibition to group II PAKs (PAKs 4-6).<br>IC50 Value: 2.5uM; 1.92 ± 0.2 μM( Dissociation constant) [1]<br>Target: PAK1<br>in vitro: Saturable binding of IPA-3 to full-length Pak1 was observed with an apparent dissociation constant of 1.92 ± 0.2 μM, consistent with the reported IC50 of 2.5 μM. IPA-3 bound the isolated RD with an even higher apparent affinity (0.1 ± 0.01 μM) whereas the kinase domain showed a weaker interaction. IPA-3 blocks activation of PAK2 at Ser192/197 that antagonises PAK/’s interaction with Pix. Accordingly, Pix-mediated Rac1 activation is decreased in IPA-3 treated schwannoma cells, indicating that PAK acts upstream of Rac [2]. In K562 cells, both chorein silencing and PAK1 inhibition with IPA-3 decreased phosphorylation of Bad, a Bcl2-associated protein, promoting apoptosis by forming mitochondrial pores, followed by mitochondrial depolarization, DNA fragmentation, and phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface, all hallmarks of apoptosis [3].<br>in vivo: Inhalation of the small molecule synthetic Pak1 inhibitor, IPA3, also significantly reduced in vivo airway responsiveness to ACh and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-Ht) in wild type mice. IPA3 inhibited the contractility of isolated human bronchial tissues to ACh, confirming that this inhibitor is also effective in human airway smooth muscle tissue [4].<br><br></p>
