Vistusertib (AZD2014) mTOR inhibitor

Cat.No.S2783

Vistusertib (AZD2014) is a novel mTOR inhibitor with IC50 of 2.8 nM in a cell-free assay, and is highly selective against multiple PI3K isoforms (α/β/γ/δ). It showed no or weak binding to the majority of kinases when tested at 1 μM. This compound induces proliferation suppression, apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and autophagy in HCC cells with antitumor activity.

In vitro

Vistusertib (AZD2014) is a close analogue of AZD8055 and a selective inhibitor of mTOR kinase. It has greater inhibitory activity against mTORC1 compared to rapamycin: this compound decreases p4EBP1 Thr37/46, inhibits the translation initiation complex and decreases overall protein synthesis while rapamycin has no effect. It also inhibits the mTORC2 biomarkers pAKTSer473 and pNDRG1Thr346. AZD2014 has broad antiproliferative activity across multiple tumour cell lines. In particular, it induces growth inhibition and cell death in breast cancer cell lines, including ER+ cell lines with acquired resistance to hormone therapy. [1]

In vivo

Vistusertib (AZD2014) induces tumour growth inhibition against several xenograft models including a human primary explant model of ER+ breast cancer. The antitumour activity is associated with modulation of both mTORC1 and mTORC2 substrates. [1]
