Chemical inhibitors of WBP2 employ various molecular mechanisms to impede its function within cellular pathways. Palbociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, interferes with the cell cycle by preventing the phosphorylation of proteins that interact with WBP2, which is essential for its role in cell cycle progression. Similarly, Trichostatin A, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, disrupts WBP2's ability to coactivate transcription by altering the acetylation state of histones at the genomic locations of WBP2 target genes. LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, can inhibit WBP2 by obstructing the PI3K/AKT pathway, leading to diminished transcriptional activity due to reduced activation of essential downstream targets. U0126 and SB203580, which inhibit MEK1/2 and p38 MAPK respectively, thwart the MAPK/ERK and p38 MAPK pathways, crucial for WBP2's coactivation function in transcriptional regulation.
In addition to these, Rapamycin, an mTOR inhibitor, suppresses WBP2 activity by inhibiting mTORC1 signaling, which plays a part in controlling the transcriptional coactivation capabilities of WBP2. Y-27632, a ROCK inhibitor, impacts WBP2 by preventing the phosphorylation of substrates that are key to the organization of the cytoskeleton and may influence WBP2's role in cellular processes. SP600125, a JNK pathway inhibitor, and ICG-001, a Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor, both disrupt pathways that regulate transcription factors and coactivators, including WBP2. Furthermore, PF-562271, a FAK/Pyk2 inhibitor, could influence WBP2 activity by altering cellular adhesion and motility. XAV-939 and AZD8055, which are tankyrase and mTOR kinase inhibitors respectively, destabilize cellular signaling pathways crucial for WBP2's coactivation function, with XAV-939 promoting β-catenin degradation and AZD8055 blocking both mTORC1 and mTORC2 pathways.
