Biochem/physiol Actions

BIX02189 is an ATP site-targeting, potent and selective MEK5 inhibitor (IC50 =1.5 nM, [ATP] = 750 nM) with much reduced or no potency against 79 other kinases (CSF1R (FMS)/ERK5/Lck/Jak3/TGFβR1/RPS6KA6 (RSK4) IC50 = 46/59/250/440/580/990 nM, MEK1/MEK2/ERK2/JNK2/EGFR/STK16 IC50 >6.2 μM). BIX02189 blocks cellular ERK5, but not ERK1/2 or p38, phosphorylation induction (IC50 <1 μM in sorbitol-stimulated HeLa), as well as downstream MEF2C transcriptional activation (IC50 = 0.53/0.26 μM, MEK5/ERK5/MEF2C HeLa/HEK293 reporter cells). BIX02189 in vivo efficacies are demonstrated in murine models of atherosclerosis, cancer, and diabetes (10-20 mg/kg i.p.).

We have identified two novel MEK5 inhibitors, BIX02188 and BIX02189, which inhibited catalytic function of purified, MEK5 enzyme. The MEK5 inhibitors blocked phosphorylation of ERK5, without affecting phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in sorbitol-stimulated HeLa cells. The compounds also inhibited transcriptional activation

Background and Aims: Endothelial dysfunction is a hallmark of cardiovascular diseases. The straight region of an artery is protected from atherosclerosis via its laminar blood flow and high shear stress. This study investigated the cytoprotective effects of a new laminar

Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) promotes tumor metastasis by inducing an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer cells. In this study, we investigated the effects of BIX02189 and XMD8-92, pharmacologic inhibitors of the MEK5 [mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK)5] signaling pathway, on

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major complication of diabetes, and causes pathological changes in retina blood vessels, as the most common cause of vision loss. Extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) is the newest discovered member in the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs)
Congde Chen et al.
Cell proliferation, 51(3), e12410-e12410 (2017-11-22)
Restoring a functional beta-cell mass is a fundamental goal in treating diabetes. A complex signalling pathway network coordinates the regulation of beta-cell proliferation, although a role for ERK5 in this network has not been reported. This question was addressed in
