Used in research as a selective inhibitor of protein kinases, particularly in studies related to cell signaling pathways involved in cancer development. Shows potential in preclinical models for suppressing tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation. Also employed as a tool compound to investigate the role of specific kinase targets in inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Its high selectivity and cell permeability make it suitable for in vitro and in vivo pharmacological studies.
