LIQ1 is a flavonoid derivative and a potent allosteric inhibitor of pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) with an IC50 of 0.39 μM and a Kd of 4.5 μM, targeting the Arg43 in the poly-arginine pocket. It demonstrates efficacy in an LPS-induced mouse endotoxemia model by preventing PKM2 nuclear translocation and inhibiting its interaction with HIF-1α, thus suppressing IL-1β transcription. LIQ1 is applicable in endotoxemia research.

PKM2-IN-13 is a selective inhibitor of PKM2 with an IC50 value of 55.13 μM. This compound demonstrates broad-spectrum anticancer activity while exhibiting low toxicity to normal cells. PKM2-IN-13 induces apoptosis by elevating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and activating Caspase-3/7. It interacts with pyruvate kinase M2 in vitro, inhibiting its glycolytic function. Additionally, PKM2-IN-13 has shown a good safety profile, with no significant adverse effects observed in in vivo experiments. It can be utilized in research studies involving oral squamous cell carcinoma, colon cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma.

Alkannin is a potent and specific inhibitor of tumor-specific pyruvate kinase-M2 (PKM2) without affecting PKM1 or pyruvate kinase-L (PKL), making it a potential anticancer agent [1].

PKM2 activator 2, with an AC50 value of 66 nM, is a pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) activator that demonstrates anti-tumor proliferative properties and attenuates the Warburg effect by normalizing cellular glycolytic metabolism through the activation of PKM2.

ZINC08383544 is a specific pyruvate kinase M2 activator which promotes the formation of PKM2 tetramer. ZINC08383544 effectively blocks PKM2 nuclear translocation, and inhibits the growth of tumor.

TLN-232, also known as CAP-232, is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide with potential antineoplastic activity. Pyruvate kinase (PK) inhibitor TLN-232 targets pyruvate kinase M2 (M2PK), which may disrupt tumor cell anaerobic glycolysis. M2PK is a dimeric isoform of PK and the predominant PK isoform found in tumor cells.
