Biological target:
AZ960 is a potent and specific inhibitor of the JAK2 kinase with a Ki of 0.45 nM.
In vitro activity:
AZ960, a novel inhibitor of Jak2 kinase, effectively induced growth arrest and apoptosis of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1, HTLV-1-infected T cells (MT-1 and MT-2) in parallel with downregulation of the phosphorylated forms of Jak2 and Bcl-2 family proteins including Bcl-2 and Mcl-1. Interestingly, AZ960 increased levels of Bcl-xL in MT-1 and MT-2 cells in association with accumulation of cAMP response element-binding protein bound to the Bcl-xL promoter as measured by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. Importantly, genetic inhibition of Bcl-xL by a small interfering RNA potentiated antiproliferative effects of AZ960 in MT-1 cells.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
