a

Inhibition of PKBβ kinase activity in a radiometric filter binding assay,(17) single determination. Standard inhibitor N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline sulfonamide (H-89) gave mean IC50 (±SD) = 590 (±220) nM (n = 20).

b

Cell growth inhibition by sulforhodamine B colorimetric assay,(33) single determination in PC3 M human prostate cancer cells. Standard inhibitor H-89 gave mean (±SD) IC50 = 18 (±6.0) μM in this assay.

c

Cellular ELISA for inhibition of GSK3β phosphorylation in PC3 M cells,(32) Standard inhibitor H-89 gave mean (±SD) IC50 = 15 (±2.0) μM.

d

Cell growth inhibition by sulforhodamine B colorimetric assay,(32) single determination in U87MG human glioblastoma cancer cells. Standard inhibitor H-89 gave mean (±SD) IC50 = 15 (±2.3) μM in this assay.

e

Cellular ELISA for inhibition of GSK3β phosphorylation in U87MG cells.(32) Standard inhibitor 2-(4-morpholino)-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (LY294002) gave IC50 = 8.1 (±3.0) μM.

f

Mean of n = 2 determinations, individual values in parentheses.

g

nd not determined.

h

n = 2 determinations.
