Tricin can inhibit human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) replication by inhibiting CDK9.?Tricin inhibits the proliferation and invasion of C6 glioma cells via the upregulation of focal-adhesion-finase (FAK)-targeting microRNA-7.

CDK9-IN-1 is a highly potent, selective CDK9 inhibitor with IC50 of 12 nM, shows good selectivity in CDKs kinase profiling assay against CDK kinases and cell proliferation inhibition.

CCT251545 is a potent, orally bioavailable inhibitor of Wnt signaling with IC50 of 5 nM, also is a potent and selective chemical probe for CDK8 and CDK19 with >100-fold selectivity over 291 other kinases; potently inhibits reporter-based readouts of basal WNT pathway activity in LS174T and SW480 cells in the absence of WNT ligand with IC50 of 23 and 190 nM, respectively.
