Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Azenosertib, also known as ZN-c3, is a highly selective Wee1 inhibitor (ICV50 = 3.8 nM) with balanced potency, ADME, and pharmacokinetic properties. ZN-c3 showed excellent in vivo efficacy. When ZN-c3 binds to Wee1, it disrupts the cell's reproduction cycle, which can make tumor cells more vulnerable to chemotherapy drugs and cause them to die.

More Info
Inhibition of Wee1 promotes both premature mitosis and a prolonged mitotic arrest leading to cell death in susceptible tumor cells, such as p53-deficient or mutated human cancers that lack the G1 checkpoint, upon treatment with DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic agents. Unlike normal cells, most p53-deficient or mutated human cancers lack the G1 checkpoint as p53 is the key regulator of the G1 checkpoint and these cells rely on the G2 checkpoint for DNA repair to damaged cells. Annulment of the G2 checkpoint may therefore make p53-deficient tumor cells more vulnerable to antineoplastic agents and enhance their cytotoxic effect. Overexpression of Wee1 occurs in several cancer types and high expression of Wee1 is associated with poor outcomes. Wee1 phosphorylates Cdc2 in the Cdc2/cyclin B (CDK1/cyclin B) complex which blocks progression from G2 into mitosis; it negatively regulates the G2 checkpoint by disallowing entry into mitosis in response to DNA damage.
