Synonym(s):
Trio N-Terminal RhoGEF Domain Inhibitor, ITX3, (2E)-(-2-((2,5-Dimethyl-1-phenyl-pyrrol-3-yl)methylene)thiazolo[3,2-a]benzimidazol-1-one, Inhibitor of Ttrio e Xchange 3
A cell-permeable thiazolo-benzimidazolone compound that inhibits Trio N-terminal RhoGEF domain- (TrioN) mediated RhoG activation (IC50 = 76 µM) and effectively reduces cellular Rac activation (by 80% with 50 µM ITX3) caused by TrioN, but not GEF337 (RhoA GEF), Tiam1 (Rac GEF), or Vav2 (Rac1/RhoA/Cdc42 GEF), overexpression in HEK293T cells. Culture treatment of ITX at 100 µM is shown to reduce NGF-induced neurite outgrowth of rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells by 50% and block the formation of multinucleated myotubes by 78% in C2C12 mouse myoblasts cultures induced for differentiation, while the differentiation-associated Myogenin and Troponin T expressions in Trio knock-down C2C12 cells are not affected by ITX at the same concentration.
