HTH-01-015

HTH-01-015 is a potent and selective inhibitor of NUAK1 (IC50 = 100 nM) and does not affect the activity of a panel of 139 other kinases, including additional AMPK family members. The administration of HTH-01-015 to MEFs (mouse embryonic fibroblasts) significantly inhibits migration in a wound-healing assay to a similar extent as NUAK1-knockout. HTH-01-015 also inhibit proliferation of MEFs to the same extent as NUAK1 knockout and U2OS cells to the same extent as NUAK1 shRNA knockdown. HTH-01-015 impaired the invasive potential of U2OS cells in a 3D cell invasion assay to the same extent as NUAK1 knockdown. HTH-01-015 will serve as useful chemical probes to delineate the biological roles of the NUAK kinases.

How to use

In Vitro:

HTH-01-015 is a specific NUAK1 inhibitor. The related NUAK1 and NUAK2 are members of the AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) family of protein kinases that are activated by the LKB1 (liver kinase B1) tumor suppressor kinase. HTH-01-015 inhibits NUAK1 with an IC50 of 100 nM, but does not significantly inhibit NUAK2 (IC50 of >10 μM). In all cell lines tested, HTH-01-015 inhibits the phosphorylation of the only well-characterized substrate, MYPT1 (myosin phosphate-targeting subunit 1) that is phosphorylated by NUAK1 at Ser445. In U2OS cells, HTH-01-015 suppresses proliferation and phosphorylation of MYPT1 to the same extent as shRNA-mediated NUAK1 knockdown. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), treatment with 10 μM HTH-01-015 suppresses proliferation and phosphorylation of MYPT1 to the same extent as NUAK1-knockout. To test whether NUAK1 inhibition impaired the ability of the invasive U2OS cells to enter a matrix, 3D Matrigel Transwell invasion assays demonstrate that 10 μM HTH-01-015 markedly inhibits the invasiveness of U2OS cells in this assay.
