Galunisertib (LY2157299) is an orally active multikinase inhibitor (IC50 in nM = 80/ALK4, 170/TGFβR1, 210/TGβ?R2, 190/MINK (MAP4K6), 220/RIP2 (RIPK2), 260/CK1α, 280/MEKKK4, 310/GAK, 400/CK1ε, 470/ALK6 (BMPR1B), 500/B-raf, 510/TNIK) mostly cited for its ALK4 & TGFbeta (TGFβ) receptors (TGFβ-RI (ALK5) & TGFβ-RII) inhibitory activity and anticancer efficacy in vitro (0.1-10 μM) and in vivo (20-100 mg/kg p.o.; mice).
Orally active multikinase inhibitor best known for its ALK4, TGFbeta receptors TGFβ-RI (ALK5) & TGFβ-RII activity and anticancer efficacy in vitro and in vivo.
Galunisertib (Gal) is a transforming growth factor (TGF-β) blockade which is being investigated as a potential tumor immunotherapy candidate drug in clinical trials. However, primary or acquired resistance is often found in the recruited cancer patients, which limits its clinical
The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway is known to play a critical role in promoting tumor growth. Consequently, blocking this pathway has been found to inhibit tumor growth. In order to achieve an optimal anti-tumor effect, however, it remains

The epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a physiological multistep process involving epithelial cells acquiring a mesenchymal-like phenotype. It is widely demonstrated that EMT is linked to tumor progression and metastasis. The transforming growth factor (TGF)-β pathways have been widely investigated

Our previous studies revealed that Jagged 2 (JAG2) is involved in the regulation of migration and invasion of colon cancer cells without affecting cell proliferation. This study further explored the specific mechanism by which JAG2 promotes migration and invasion of

Galunisertib (LY2157299), a promising small-molecule inhibitor of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) receptor, is currently in mono- and combination therapy trials for various cancers including glioblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer. Using genetically modified mouse models, we investigated the roles
