Uses
ULK-101 is a potent and selective ULK1 inhibitor, with IC50 values of 1.6 nM and 30 nM for ULK1 and ULK2, respectively. ULK-101 suppresses autophagy and sensitizes cancer cells to nutrient stress[1].
Biological Activity
ULK-101 is a potent and selective ULK1 inhibitor with IC50 values of 8.3 nM and 30 nM for ULK1 and ULK2, respectively.
in vitro
ULK-101 inhibited the induction of autophagy and autophagic flux under different stimuli. ULK-101 sensitizes KRAS-mutated lung cancer cells to nutrient stress.
