PIK-III is a VPS34 inhibitor which blocks autophagy and uncovers a role for NCOA4 in ferritin degradation and iron homeostasis. It has IC50 values of 18 nM and 1.2 μM for VPS34 and PI(3)Kδ, respectively. PIK-III acutely inhibits autophagy and de novo lipidation of LC3, and leads to the stabilization of autophagy substrates. In H4 cells, PIK-III inhibits the formation of autolysosomes and increases the cytosolic signal of LC3 under basal conditions and when autophagy is induced with the mTOR inhibitor AZD8055. Treatment with Vps34-PIK-III leads to an increase in the levels of LC3-I in H4 and PSN1 cells.
| Cell Experiment | |

| Cell lines | H4 cells/ HeLa cells |
| Preparation method | To determine whether inhibition of VPS34 function impacts autophagy, LC3 and known autophagy substrates such as damaged mitochondria or the autophagy cargo receptor p62 are monitored. H4 cells expressing mCherry-GFP-LC3 are treated overnight with the indicated compounds, fixed, stained with Hoechst 33342 and imaged by automated acquisition. HeLa cells expressing GFP-Parkin are treated with PIK-III for 12 h followed by the addition of CCCP for 12 h, fixed, stained for endogenous Tom20 and imaged. |
