BI 2536

Description

BI 2536 (755038-02-9) was originally reported as a potent (IC50’s Plk1 = 0.83nM, Plk2 = 3.5nM and Plk3 = 9.0nM)1?and selective2?Polo-like kinase inhibitor?that caused mitotic arrest and apoptosis induction in various human cancer cell lines.1?It was later found to be a potent inhibitor (IC50?= 100nM) of BET family member BRD4 and able to potently suppress c-Myc expression in MM.1S multiple myeloma cells.3?BI 2536 destabilizes N-Myc by inhibiting the deactivation of the ubiquitin E3 ligase Fbw7 by Plk1.4

The Uses of BI 2536

BI 2536 is a PLK1 inhibitor, inducing apoptosis together with micro-tubule-destabilizing drugs in preclinical rhabdomyosarcoma models. Anti-cancer and potent PLK1 inhibitor.

What are the applications of Application
