Olanzapine was investigated as an inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3 beta) in an attempt to evaluate its effect on blood glucose level. The investigation included simulated docking experiments to fit olanzapine within the binding pocket of GSK-3 beta followed by in vitro enzyme inhibition assay as well as in vivo subchronic animal treatment. Olanzapine was found to readily fit within the binding pocket of GSK-3 beta in a low energy orientation characterized with optimal attractive interactions bridging the tricyclic thienobenzodiazepine nitrogen and sulfur atoms of olanzapine and the residue of VAL-135 of GSK-3 beta. In vivo experiments showed a significant decrease in fasting blood glucose level in Balb/c mice at 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 mg/kg dose levels (P < 0.05) and 6 fold increase in liver glycogen level at the 3 mg/kg dose level (P < 0.001). Moreover; olanzapine was found to potently inhibit recombinant GSK-3 beta in vitro (IC50 value = 9 1.0 nM). Our findings strongly suggest that olanzapine has significant GSK-3 beta inhibition activity that could justify some of its pharmacological effects and glucose metabolic disturbances.
