Background
MLN8054 is a potent of Aurora A kinase (AAK) inhibitor consisting of a benzazepine core scaffold with a fused amino pyrimidine and an aryl carboxylic acid which represents an unprecedented kinase inhibitor framework. The inhibition of MLN8054 towards AAK is ATP-competitive, reversible and selective with an IC50 value of 4nM, which is more than 40-fold and 100-fold selective comparing to Aurora B kinase (IC50 = 175 nM) and a range of other kinases respectively. MLN8054 exerts antitumor activity against human tumor xenografts through AAK inhibition, which results in deactivation of Pt288, spindle defects, accumulation of G2/M, and apoptosis-induced cell death in tumor cells.
