Application
GW843682X has been used as a polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1) inhibitor:
- to study the influence of PLK1 inhibition on Wee1 (G2 check point kinase), cyclin-dependent protein kinase 1 (Cdc2)–Yp15, expression in melanoma cells
- to determine if PLK1 inhibition decreased the survival of hamartin and tuberin deficient cells
- to investigate if inhibitors of PLK1 and aurora kinases have a synergistic antimitotic impact in HeLa cells
