| Name | BT2 |
| Description | BT2, a BCKDC kinase (BDK) inhibitor, exhibits an IC50 of 3.19 μM and functions as a potent, selective Mcl-1 inhibitor with a Ki value of 59 μM. Its interaction with BDK induces helix movements in the N-terminal domain, leading to BDK's dissociation from the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDC). |
| In vivo | BT2 treatment reduces the protein levels of BDK in kidneys and heart. The -fold activation of BCKDC activity in the above tissues correlates with decreased phosphorylation in heart, muscle, and kidney after the long term BT2 treatment. BT2 (20 mg/kg/day; i.p.; daily; for 7 days; C57BL/6J male mice) treatment robustly enhances BCKDC activity in the heart (12.3-fold) compared with the vehicle-treated animals. Less activation is obtained in muscle and kidney at 3.6- and 3.8-fold, respectively [1]. |
