A potent inhibitor of JAK3
ZM 39923 is a selective inhibitor of JAK1 and JAK3 with pIC50 value of 4.4 and 7.1, respectively [1] [2].
JAK (Janus kinase) is a member of intracellular, non-receptor tyrosine kinases family and plays a pivotal role in transducing cytokine-mediated signals via the JAK-STAT pathway. It has been shown that type I and type II cytokine receptor families rely on the JAK family to phosphorylate and activate downstream proteins involved in their signal transduction pathways. Considering the biological function of JAK, a veraity of JAK inhibitors have been developed and mainly used for screening blood system disease, tumor, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis treatment [2] [3].
ZM 39923 is a selective JAK1 and JAK3 inhibitor. When tested with RA cells, administration of ZM 39923 combined with 50 μg/ml curcumol suppressed CD4(+) T cell proliferation and induced apoptosis through inhibiting Jak3-STAT5-related molecular activities and Bcl-2 expression, respectively [4]. In confluent ARPE-19 cells, pretreated with ZM 39923 followed acrolein treatment resulted in the reduction of cell viability and increased VEGF expression via mediating JAK3 and TGFβ2 [3].
It is reported that ZM 39923 has the inhibitory effect on TGM2 (which considered as a target for several disease treatment) with the IC50 value of 10 nM [5] and the same effect on EGFR [1].
