GSK-3 Inhibitor XVI is a cell-permeable aminopyrimidine compound that acts as potent, ATP-competitive, and highly selective GSK-3 inhibitor (IC50 = 10 and 6.7 nM against GSK-3α and GSK-3β, respectively). GSK-3 Inhibitor XVI exhibits little to no activity toward 46 other enzymes (IC50 >8.8 µM against 20 kinases and Ki ≥5 μM against 23 non-kinase enzymes) and shows only weak binding to 22 pharmacologically relevant receptors (Kd ~4 μM). GSK-3 Inhibitor XVI is bioavailable via oral ingestion and has shown to improve in vivo glucose metabolism in both murine and rat type 2 diabetes models.
