PARD6G Inhibitors

The inhibitors listed above target PARD6G indirectly by influencing cellular processes and pathways related to cell polarity, signaling, and cytoskeletal dynamics. These inhibitors include kinase inhibitors, cytoskeletal modulators, and small GTPase activity modulators. LY294002 and Wortmannin, both PI3K inhibitors, can modulate signaling pathways that are crucial for cell polarity and migration, processes where PARD6G plays a key role. Similarly, U0126 and PD98059, as MEK inhibitors, potentially influence the MAPK/ERK pathways, which can impact cell polarity functions associated with PARD6G.

Cytoskeletal modulators such as Y-27632 (a ROCK inhibitor), Latrunculin A, and Blebbistatin disrupt the dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton. Since PARD6G is involved in organizing the cytoskeleton for cell polarity, these compounds can indirectly affect its function. Small GTPase modulators like NSC23766, ML141, and CK-666 target Rac1, Cdc42, and the Arp2/3 complex, respectively. These GTPases and complexes are integral to actin cytoskeleton organization and cell polarity, and thus can influence PARD6G's role in these processes. Forskolin, by activating adenylate cyclase, influences cAMP levels, which can have downstream effects on signaling pathways involving PARD6G.Nocodazole affects microtubule dynamics, which is crucial for cell polarity and vesicular trafficking, processes where PARD6G is also involved.
