Reversine is a small molecule developed by the group of Peter G. Schultz, used for stem cell dedifferentiation. Reversine is also a novel Aurora kinases inhibitor that inhibits colony formation of human acute myeloid leukemia cells. Reversine inhibits the phosphorylation of histone H3, a direct downstream target of Aurora kinases. Similarly to the Aurora kinase inhibitor VX-680, reversine inhibited colony formation of leukemic cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia but was significantly less toxic than VX-680 on cells from healthy donors. The crystal structure of the reversine-Aurora B kinase complex shows that reversine is a novel class of ATP-competitive Aurora kinase inhibitors. Reversine might be a useful agent in cancer chemotherapy.
