Indirubin-3-monoxime inhibits GSK-3β by competing with ATP, with Ki of 0.85 μM, and Km of 110 μM. Indirubin-3-monoxime also inhibits tau phosphorylation by GSK-3β, with an IC50 value of around 100 nM. Indirubin-3-monoxime completely inhibits the phosphorylation of the AT100 epitope. Indirubin-3-monoxime inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation with IC50 of ~2 μM. Indirubin-3-monoxime blunts migration of VSMC stimulated with the PDGF. Indirubin-3-monoxime interferes with the migratory response in VSMC, and also suppresses the production of pro-migratory LT in monocytes. Moreover, Indirubin-3-monoxime inhibits 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) product synthesis in monocytes and neutrophils, with the same potency (IC50=5.0±1.1 and 3.7±1.2 μM, respectively). Indirubin-3-monoxime is an inhibitor of 5-LO, with IC50 of 7.8-10 μM in cell-free assay.
