YW1128 is an inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signaling with an IC50 value of 4.1 nM in a reporter assay.1 It decreases protein levels of β-catenin in the presence of the GSK3β inhibitor lithium chloride and increases protein levels of Axin1 in HEK293 cells. YW1128 decreases lipid accumulation and the expression of gluconeogenic and lipogenic genes in Huh7 cells. It decreases the hepatic expression of Wnt target genes, improves glucose tolerance, and prevents body weight increases and hepatic lipid accumulation in mice fed a high-fat diet, but not mice fed normal chow, when administered at a dose of 40 mg/kg every other day for 11 weeks.References1.

GSK2646264 (Compound 44) is a highly effective and specific inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) with a pIC50 of 7.1. In addition to targeting SYK, GSK2646264 also inhibits several other kinases, including LCK, LRRK2, GSK3β, JAK2, VEGFR2, Aurora B, and Aurora A, with pIC50 values of 5.4, 5.4, 5.3, 5, 4.5, <4.6 and <4.3, respectively. Notably, GSK2646264 demonstrates skin penetrability, reaching both the epidermis and dermis [1].
BRD3731 is a selective inhibitor of GSK3β, demonstrating an IC50 value of 15 nM for GSK3β and 215 nM for GSK3α. Due to its inhibitory properties, BRD3731 holds promise for investigating various medical conditions, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychiatric disorders, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders [1].
APN AKT-IN-1 is a potent dual inhibitor of aminopeptidase N (APN) and protein kinase B (AKT), exhibiting IC50 values of 0.21 μM and 0.27 μM for APN and AKT inhibition, respectively. This compound effectively suppresses the phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3β), which serves as an intracellular substrate of AKT [1].
SGK1 inhibitor is an inhibitor of serum- and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 (SGK1) and SGK2. It is selective for SGK1 and SGK2 over SGK3 in the presence of a high concentration of ATP. SGK1 inhibitor prevents phosphorylation of GSK3β in U2OS cells and decreases cell viability in BYL719-insensitive HCC1954 cells when used in combination with the PI3Kα inhibitor BYL719. SGK1 inhibitor reduces tumor growth in an HCC1954 mouse xenograft model when administered in combination with BYL719.
