GW2580 has been used to study its effect on paracrine signaling from stretched cardiomyocyte on cardiac fibroblast phenotype.[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
GW2580 is a cell-permeable, potent and selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of cFMS kinase, receptor for macrophage-colony stimulating factor, M-CSF or CSF-1, and a key regulator of macrophage and osteoclast activation and differentiation.
GW2580 is a cell-permeable, potent and selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of cFMS kinase, receptor for macrophage-colony stimulating factor, M-CSF or CSF-1, and a key regulator of macrophage and osteoclast activation and differentiation. FMS is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase that binds to the macrophage or monocyte colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF or CSF-1). Overexpression of CSF-1 and/or FMS has been implicated in a number of disease states including the growth of metastasis of some types of cancer, in promoting osteoclast proliferation in bone osteolysis, and in several inflammatory disorders. GW2580 selectively inhibits cFMS-mediated cellular functions in vitro at 0.06 μM as well as CSF-1-dependent tumor growth in vivo. GW2580 was inactive against 26 other kinases.

As current therapies benefit only a minority of cancer patients, additional therapeutic targets are needed. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have attracted attention for improving therapeutic responses, yet regulatory strategies remain elusive. Here, we show that the protein kinase A catalytic subunit

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder characterized by tissue accumulation of CD1a+CD207+ LCH cells. In LCH, somatic mutations of the BRAF V600E gene have been detected in tissue LCH cells, bone marrow CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells, circulating CD14+

Cardiac fibrosis is a serious condition currently lacking effective treatments. It occurs as a result of cardiac fibroblast (CFB) activation and differentiation into myofibroblasts, characterized by proliferation, extracellular matrix (ECM) production and stiffening, and contraction due to the expression of

Aberrant translational repression is a feature of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. The association between disease-linked proteins and stress granules further implicates impaired stress responses in neurodegeneration. However, our knowledge of the proteins that evade translational repression is incomplete. It is also
