The kinesin-like spindle protein Eg5, also known as KSP and Kif11, is a motor protein that is essential for establishing a bipolar spindle during mitosis.{22151} Eg5-I is a potent inhibitor of Eg5, both in vitro and in cells (IC50s = 127 and 190 nM, respectively).{26966} It is an analog of S-trityl-L-cysteine (STLC), but is more potent and has better solubility than STLC. Eg5-I blocks bipolar spindle formation and inhibits the growth of cancer cells, with an average GI50 value of 360 nM against a broad panel of tumor cells (GI50 range = 10 nM to 3 µM).{26966} It ranges from 140- to 1200-fold more potent against cancer cells than monastrol (Item No. 15044), which also acts by inhibiting Eg5.{22151,26966}

    (R)-Roscovitine – 10 mg

    Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}
