CC260, a selective inhibitor for PI5P4Kα and PI5P4Kβ with Kis of 40 nM and 30 nM respectively, exhibits minimal to no inhibition against other protein kinases like Plk1 and RSK2. It is applicable in the research of cell energy metabolism, diabetes, and cancer[1].

PI5P4Kα:40 nM (Ki), PI5P4Kβ:30 nM (Ki)

In cultured C2C12 myotubes, CC260 (20 μM) enhances Insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation at both Thr-308 and Ser-473 but suppresses S6K phosphorylation (Thr-389) by mTORC1[1]. CC260 (2.5 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM) significantly increases phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in a dose-dependent manner[1]. CC260 treatment reduces the ability of BT474 cells to survive serum starvation, which could be rescued by expressing the PI5P4Kβ refractory mutant[1]. In BT474 cells, CC260 treatment causes an increase in glycolytic ATP production[1].
