AK963/40708899

AK963/40708899 is a potent PAK1 inhibitor. AK963/40708899 suppresses the proliferation of human gastric cancer cells by downregulation of PAK1-NF-κB-cyclinB1 pathway. AK963/40708899 induces cell cycle arrest at G2 phase and reduces the migration and invasion. AK963/40708899 inhibits the formation of filopodia and promots cell adhesion which in turn inhibits invasive potential of gastric cells by negatively regulating PAK1-LIMKl-cofilin and PAK1-ERK-FAK pathways.
