GSK2578215A stimulates mitochondrial fragmentation, autophagy and mitophagy.
GSK2578215A is a potent inhibitor of leucine-rich repeat kinase-2 (LRRK2) also known as dardarin or PARK8, a kinase with mutations linked to Parkinson’;s disease. Because the most common mutation, G2019S, enhances LRRK2 kinase activity, it is hoped that LRRK2 inhibitors may be useful in treating the disease. GSK2578215A inhibited both wild-type and G2019S mutant LRRK2 kinase activity with IC50s of 10.9 and 8.9 nM respectively. It has good blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability with a high ratio of brain to plasma distribution in mice.
