SP600125, a selective JNK inhibitor, is a potent inhibitor of NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1).
The c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) has been identified as a critical modulator in multiple cellular processes, including stress stimulus, inflammation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, etc. SP600125 is a widely used ATP-competitive reversible JNKs inhibitor. NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a flavoprotein mediated two or four electron-reduction of quinones. Here, we showed that SP600125 bind to the active pocket of NQO1 and inhibit NQO1 activity. SP600125 exhibits comparable inhibitory effects on NQO1-mediated quinone bioactivation, H2O2 generation, and cell death, as the specific NQO1 inhibitor dicoumarol (DIC). Importantly, the inhibitory effects of SP600125 on NQO1 are independent of JNKs inhibition. These results suggested that SP600125 is a novel NQO1 inhibitor, which provides new insights into the mechanism of action of SP600125. Furthermore, SP600125 should be used more cautiously as a JNKs inhibitor, especially when NQO1 is highly expressed. SP600125 competed with β-Lap (NQO1-bioactivated drugs) for binding to NQO1, and inhibited NQO1-dependent cell death.
