Biochem/physiol Actions

GK921 is an orally active transglutaminase 2 (TG2, TGase 2) inhibitor (IC50 = 7.71 μM) that effectively inhibits TG2-mediated I-κBα and p53 polymerization. GK921 induces growth arrest/cell death in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cultures (ave GI50 = 9.05 μM) and abrogates RCC with increase in p53 level in mice in vivo (8 mg/kg 5x per wk; ACHN or CAKI-1 cells).

The tumor microenvironment plays an essential role in supporting glioma stemness and radioresistance. Following radiotherapy, recurrent gliomas form in an irradiated microenvironment. Here we report that astrocytes, when pre-irradiated, increase stemness and survival of cocultured glioma cells. Tumor-naïve brains increased

To test whether transglutaminase 2 (TGase 2) inhibitor GK921 alone reverses renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tumor growth. RCC is resistant to both radiation and chemotherapy, and the prognosis remains poor. Despite the recent therapeutic success of vascular endothelial growth factor
