GSK2334470 inhibits PDK1 from activating full-length Akt1 in the presence of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-containing lipid vesicles or a mutant of Akt1 lacking the PH domain (ΔPH-Akt1) with IC50 of ~10 nM. GSK2334470 also similarly inhibits PDK1 from phosphorylating the PDKtide peptide substrate with IC50 of ~10 nM. GSK2334470 (0.1 μM–0.3 μM) induces significant dose-dependent inhibition of endogenous NDRG1 with over 50% reduction in phosphorylation in HEK-293 cells. GSK2334470 (30 nM) induces a significant dose-dependent inhibition of the T-loop phosphorylation of each SGK isoform in HEK-293 cells. GSK2334470 (1 μM) inhibits hydrophobic motif phosphorylation of S6K1 to a similar extent as T-loop phosphorylation in HEK-293 cells. GSK2334470 (3 μM) also suppresses S6K1 activity and phosphorylation induced by IGF1 stimulation of serum-starved HEK-293 cells. GSK2334470 (3 μM) markedly inhibits the phosphorylation of several Akt substrates . GSK2334470 (3 μM) also induces near maximal inhibition of Akt1 activity and phosphorylation within 5 min, and Akt substrate phosphorylation (FoxO, GSK3 and PRAS40) is inhibited at a slightly later time point (10 min). GSK2334470 (0.3 μM) significantly inhibits phosphorylation of Akt or PRAS40/GSK3 in PDK1K465E/K465E knock-in but not wild-type ES cells. GSK2334470 (1 μM) effectively suppresses SGK1 activity as judged by the inhibition of NDRG1 phosphorylation in U87 glioblastoma cells. GSK2334470 (1 μM) also potently suppresses activation of S6K1 (Figure 7B) as well as SGK1 in MEF (mouse embryonic fibroblast) cells. GSK2334470 (0.1 μM) induces ~50% inhibition of RSK2 activity in HEK-293 cells. GSK2334470 (30 µM) suppresses U46619 induced Ca2+-sensitized force in α-toxin permeabilized rabbit pulmonary artery SM. GSK2334470 (30 µM) results in a significant decrease in the contractile force in response to . GSK2334470 (1 μM) results in total abrogation of the EGF-induced intracellular calcium increase and inositol phosphates accumulation in MDA-MB-231 cells. GSK2334470 (1 μM) inhibits PLCγ1 Tyr783 phosphorylation in MDA-MB-231 cells.

The efficacy of the PDK1 inhibitor (PDKi) GSK2334470 is tested in newborn BrafV600E::Pten−/−mice subjected to systemic administration of 4-HT. Twice weekly administration of PDK1 results in marked inhibition of pigmented lesions and concomitant melanomagenesis, as well as significant inhibition of lung metastases, seen by H&E staining-based quantification (~80%), and lymph node metastases as by S100 immunostaining, similar to the phenotype seen upon genetic ablation of Pdk1.
