LY-364947 is a selective, ATP-competitive inhibitor of Transforming Growth Factor-β Type I receptor kinase (TGF-β RI, ALK5) with IC50 = 59 nM. It is much less potent at related kinases, with IC50 = 400 nM for TGF-β RII and IC50 = 1400 nM for mixed lineage kinase-7 (MLK-7), a kinase in the MAP kinase signal pathway and closely related to TGF-β RII. LY-364947 inhibits TGF-β-dependent cellular growth (IC50 = 81 nM) in NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblasts.
Transforming Growth Factor-β Type I receptor kinase (ALK5) inhibitor
We describe the discovery, using shape-based virtual screening, of a potent, ATP site-directed inhibitor of the TbetaRI kinase, an important and novel drug target for fibrosis and cancer. The first detailed report of a TbetaRI kinase small molecule co-complex confirms
Tumor microenvironment (TME) crucially functions in tumor initiation and progression. Stroma-tumor interactions and cellular transdifferentiation are the prerequisite for tumor formation. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), a major cytokine secreted by tumor-associated fibroblasts (TAFs) and cancer cells, is a crucial player

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on airway inflammation in mice with bronchial asthma, and the regulatory mechanism of transforming growth factor (TGF)‑β1 signaling pathway, so as to provide theoretical basis for research and
The role of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling in cancer progression is still under debate. To determine the function of TGF-β signaling in bladder cancer progression, we conditionally knocked out the Tgfbr2 in mouse model after a N-butyl-N-4-hydroxybutyl Nitrosamine induced
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide, and metastasis is the major cause of CRC-related mortality. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) has a central role not only in the regulation of the normal colon but
