Description | Nilotinib (AMN-107) is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor that potently inhibits Bcr-Abl. Nilotinib is more effective than imatinib at decreasing the proliferation and viability in cells expressing wild-type Bcr-Abl and is active against many imatinib-resistant Bcr-Abl mutants, with the exception of T315I (1-4). Nilotinib has been shown to inhibit Abl activity in cells expressing wild-type Abl and imatinib-resistant mutant Abl, with ~20-fold greater potency than imatinib. Nilotinib is similarly effective at inhibiting Abl autophosphorylation (3). Research studies have demonstrated that nilotinib treatment of Bcr-Abl-expressing K-562 cells attenuates Stat5 and CrkL phosphorylation, decreases Bcl-xL and c-Myc expression, induces p27 and Bim expression, and induces PARP cleavage. Many of these effects are enhanced by cotreatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589 (5). |
