DLK INHIBITOR GNE-3511 (C15-1305-106)

General description

A cell-permeable, orally bioavailable, blood-brain barrier permeant 2,6-diaminopyridine based compound that acts as a highly potent and selective inhibitor of dual leucine zipper kinase inhibitor (DLK; K_i = 500 pM). Exhibits an ideal balance of metabolic stability, potency, and efflux properties. Displays high selectivity over JNK (IC₅₀ = 129, 514, and 364 nM for JNK1, 2, and 3, respectively) and MLK (IC₅₀ = 67.8, 767, and 602 nM for MLK1, 2, and 3, respectively). Does not affect the activities of MKK4 and MKK7 (IC₅₀ >5 µM). Protects neurons in an in vitro axon degeneration assay (IC₅₀ = 107 nM). Also shown to reduce levels of phosphorylated c-Jun in retina and offer protection in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MTPT) model of Parkinson′s disease. Exhibits desirable pharmacokinetic properties (t1/2 = 0.6 h; CLp = 56 ml/min/kg in mice; 1 mg/kg, i.v., or 5 mg/kg; p.o.).
