Description and Uses

CHIR99021 is an aminopyrimidine derivative that is an extremely potent glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) 3 inhibitor, inhibiting both GSK3β (IC?? = 6.7 nM) and GSK3α (IC?? = 10 nM). GSK3 is a serine/threonine kinase that is a key inhibitor of the WNT pathway; therefore CHIR99021 functions as a WNT activator. It shows little activity against a large panel of kinases including CDK2 and other serine/threonine kinases such as MAPK and PKB (Bain et al.).
CHIR99021 promotes self-renewal potential of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) of mice by inhibiting glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) activity and potentiates the upregulation of β-catenin and c-Myc functions. CHIR99021 promotes self-renewal of ESCs by modulating transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), Notch and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling pathways. CHIR99021 is an agonist of wingless/integrated (wnt) signalling, upregulates cyclinA expression and promotes cell proliferation in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines.

A specific GSK-3 inhibitor of GSK-3β and GSK-3α with IC50s of 5 nM and 10 nM, respectively.
