Description
WS6 is a highly potent and selective small molecule that promotes pancreatic β cell proliferation in rodent and human primary islets, identified by a high-throughput, cell-based screening using rodent pancreatic β cells. It can induce proliferation of mouse R7T1 cells with an EC50 ~0.28 µM, and induce up to 4% of rat β cells and 3% of human β cells to proliferate, with a similar EC50 of 0.4 μM. WS6 induces proliferation of primary rat and human β cells in intact islet format at 0.2-1.0 µM concentration. In the RIP-DTA mouse model of β cell ablation, WS6 demonstrated excellent in vivo effect on normalizing blood glucose and inducing concomitant increases in β cell proliferation and β cell number. Affinity pulldown and kinase profiling studies implicate Erb3 binding protein-1 and the IκB kinase pathway in the mechanism of action of WS6.
