It is a potent inhibitor of GSK3alpha and GSK3beta (IC50 values of 0.9 and 4.9 nM, respectively) and increases bone mass (via Wnt activation) in rats. It has a role as an EC 2.7.11.26 (tau-protein kinase) inhibitor, an antineoplastic agent, a bone density conservation agent and a Wnt signalling activator.
