Description:

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

GNE-495 is a potent and selective MAP4K4 Inhibitor with efficacy in retinal angiogenesis. GNE-495 showed excellent potency and good PK and was used to demonstrate in vivo efficacy in a retinal angiogenesis model recapitulating effects that were observed in the inducible Map4k4 knockout mice. Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase (MAP4K4, or HGK), and its homologues Misshapen and MIG-15 have been shown to regulate a multitude of biological processes, including embryonic development,metabolism, inflammation, neural regeneration, angiogenesis, and cancer.

More Info
Biological target:
GNE-495 is a MAP4K4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 3.7 nM.
In vitro activity:
Consistent with the good permeability properties, these compounds exhibited adequate potency preventing migration of HUVEC cells in vitro, an assay that is used to evaluate antiangiogenic behavior. Notably, compound 13 (GNE-495) showed the best balance of MAP4K4 inhibition, permeability, microsomal stability, and cellular potency. Reference: ACS Med Chem Lett. 2015 Aug 13; 6(8): 913–918. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4538449/
In vivo activity:
In order to determine if compound 13 (referred to as GNE-495 herein) can inhibit MAP4K4 function in vivo, this study utilized the neonatal retinal vascular development model because inducible knockout of Map4k4 inhibited retinal vascular outgrowth and altered retinal vascular morphology. IP injection of GNE-495 into newborn mice dose-dependently delayed retinal vascular outgrowth (Figures 3A,B and S3) and induced abnormal retinal vascular morphology (Figure 3C,D). These phenotypes recapitulated the retinal vascular defects observed in the inducible Map4k4 knockout mice, indicating that GNE-495 is indeed active in vivo. It is important to note that though GNE-495 also inhibits the related kinases MINK and TNIK, the observed in vivo effects were attributable solely to MAP4K4 inhibition as has been shown previously.
