Biological Activity

CX-4945 (Silmitasertib) is the first orally available small molecule inhibitor of protein CK2 in clinical trials for cancer. CX-4945 (Silmitasertib) selectively binds to and inhibits the enzyme casein kinase II (CK2). Protein kinase CK2 (CK2) is involved in a variety of roles essential to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. CK2 promotes signaling in the Akt pathway and CX-4945 suppresses the phosphorylation of Akt as well as other key downstream mediators of the pathway such as p21. CX-4945 has been reported to show broad spectrum anti-proliferative activity in multiple cancer cell lines. CX-4945 induced apoptosis and caused cell cycle arrest in cancer cells in vitro. CX-4945 exhibited a dose-dependent antitumor activity in a xenograft model of PC3 prostate cancer model and was well tolerated. In vivo time-dependent reduction in the phosphorylation of the biomarker p21 at T145 was observed by immunohistochemistry.

Results We found that TDB-treated cells were much less prone than vehicle-treated cells to forming spheroids, while CX-4945 was similarly effective than TDB when assessed at 24h but has much weaker effect at longer times after the inhibitor removal.

Results The results, shown in Figure 2(b), demonstrated that the phosphorylation of Akt1 Ser129 is similarly reduced by the two inhibitors immediately after treatment, while it remains significantly lower than the control only with TDB in case of inhibitor removal, thus confirming the more permanent blockage of the kinase activity by TDB than by CX-4945.

Results To compare the inhibitory efficacy in cells of the two compounds, CX-4945 and TDB, we analyzed their effects on two cell lines, one deriving from a blood tumor (CEM, T-cell lymphoblastoma) and the other from a solid tumor (U2OS, osteosarcoma). Their efficacy was quite similar in inhibiting cellular CK2.

Results Although we cannot strictly confirm that all the bands shown in the WB of Figure 6 are direct targets of CK2, our observations suggest that the three cell groups might differ in some regulatory mechanisms which depend on CK2 and can be affected by its blockage.

Results "we did not find any significant difference of phosphorylation level of a CK2 crucial target, Akt Ser129 among the three cell groups. Also the expression of the total Akt protein was very similar among groups (Figure 5). However, as shown in Figure 5, both CX-4945 and TBB treatment produced a reduction of Sp129-Akt phosphorylation to a level that was very similar among the three groups of cells."

Results The results substantially confirmed those obtained with TBB, showing in addition that the fibroblasts from T1DM+ patients were the most sensitive among the subjects’ groups (Figure 3a), their viability being significantly reduced already at the lower dose (10 mM of CX-4945) within 48 h.

Results CX-4945 and Q1 strongly reduce the phosphorylation extent of Akt1 Ser129, a specific target of CK2 (about 80% and 65%, respectively), while they do not change the protein-level of CK2α, CK2β and eIF3j(wb).CX-4945 or quinalizarin does not affect the interaction of the kinase with the eIF3 subunits eIF3b and eIF3d, it causes an about 3-fold increase of eIF3j co-immuniprecipitation(IP).

Results The strong inhibition of the 33P-phosphorylation induced by in vitro addition of the CK2 selective and potent inhibitor CX-4945. The kinase co-immunoprecipitated with eIF3j specifically phosphorylates the subunit as demonstrated by the strong reduction of the eIF3j 33P phosphorylation caused by in vitro addition of the CK2 inhibitor CX-4945.
