AZ 960

Janus-associated kinases (JAKs) are cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases that are required for activating the signaling of certain cytokines and growth factor receptors. Many myeloproliferative diseases have been linked to a mutation in JAK2 where a switch from valine to phenylalanine occurs at the 617 position (V617F). Furthermore, constitutive activation of the JAK2 signaling pathway is associated with aggressive adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma. AZ 960 inhibits JAK2 with a Ki value of 0.45 nM in vitro. It can decrease STAT3/5 phosphorylation and inhibit cell proliferation in a SET-2 human megakaryoblastic cell line that is heterozygous for the JAK2 V617F mutation with a GI50 value of 33 nM. AZ 960 can also induce apoptosis in human T cell lymophotropic virus type 1-infected (IC50 = ~1 µM), which corresponds to a downregulation of phosphorylated forms of JAK2 and Bcl-2 family proteins.Formal Name: 5-fluoro-2-[[(1S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethyl]amino]-6-[(5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)amino]-3-pyridinecarbonitrile.
