摘要: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is associated with various key biological processes, including glucose regulation, apoptosis, protein synthesis, cell signaling, cellular transport, gene transcription, proliferation, and intracellular communication. Accordingly, GSK-3 has been implicated in a wide variety of diseases specifically targeted for both therapeutic imaging applications by large number academic laboratories pharmaceutical companies. Here, we review the structure, function, expression levels, ligand-binding properties its connection to diseases. A selected list highly potent inhibitors, IC50 <20 nM adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-competitive inhibitors <5 μM non-ATP-competitive were analyzed structure activity relationships. Furthermore, ubiquitous possible impact on therapy are also highlighted. Finally, rational perspective route selective effective discussed.
