Application

SB-505124 hydrochloride hydrate was used to study the role of TGF-β pathway in development and differentiation studies.3,4

Biochem/physiol Actions

SB-505124 selectively inhibits TGF-β type I receptors, activin receptor-like kinases (ALK) 4, 5 and 7. It inhibits ALK4-, 5- and 7-mediated activation of Smad2, Smad3 and MAPK pathway induced by TGF-β.1 SB-505124 inhibits the human fibroblast trans-differentiation induced by the co-culture with Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.2
SB-505124 is an inhibitor of activin receptor-like kinase (ALK) 5, also known as transforming growth factor-α type I receptor kinase, with an IC50 of 47 ± 5 nM.

The ubiquitously expressed Polycomb Group protein Yin-Yang1 (YY1) is believed to regulate gene expression through direct binding to DNA elements found in promoters or enhancers of target loci. Additionally, YY1 contains diverse domains that enable a plethora of protein-protein interactions

Clinically, there is a great need for small molecule inhibitors that could control pathogenic effects of transforming growth factor (TGF-beta) and/or modulate effects of TGF-beta in normal responses. Inhibition of TGF-beta signaling would be predicted to enhance re-epithelialization of cutaneous
