Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a key inhibitory role in both the insulin and Wnt signaling pathways.{14419,14420} CHIR99021 is an aminopyrimidine derivative that inhibits GSK3α and GSK3β with IC50 values of 10 and 6.7 nM, respectively.{19045} When tested against twenty different protein kinases, this inhibitor shows greater than 500-fold selectivity for GSK3.{19045} CHIR99021 activates glycogen synthesis in CHO-IR cells (EC50 = 0.8 μM) and in isolated type 1 diabetic rat skeletal muscle.{19045} A single oral dose (30 mg/kg) of CHIR99021 enhances in vivo glucose metabolism in a rodent model of type 2 diabetes.{19045} CHIR99021 has also been shown to induce the reprogramming of murine and human somatic cells into stem cells.{19047,16878}
