IPA-3
PAK1 inhibitor / IPA-3 is a selective allosteric inhibitor of Group 1 p21-activated kinase (PAK1 IC50 = 2.5 µM)1 via covalent binding to the PAK1 regulatory domain preventing binding to the upstream activator Cdc422. IPA-3 has been shown to induce cell death in human leukemic cell lines3, significantly inhibit TGFβ1-induced prostate cell epithelial to mesenchymal transition4 and inhibits the growth of liver cancer cells5.
