Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Grassofermata, also known as NAV-2729, is a selective ARF6 inhibitor (IC50 = 1.0 μM). Blocking ARF6 with a small-molecule inhibitor reduces uveal melanoma cell proliferation and tumorigenesis in a mouse model, confirming the functional relevance of this pathway and suggesting a therapeutic strategy for Gα-mediated diseases.

Product Data
Biological target:
NAV-2729 is a dual Arf1/Arf6 activation inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Grassofermata was effective in inhibiting the uptake of FA analog C1-BODIPY-C12 in C2C12 and INS-1E cells with IC50 of 10.6 and 8.3 μM respectively (Fig. 1C and 1D). By comparison, the IC50 was higher in human adipocytes (58.2 μM; Fig. 1E). As expected, Grassofermata exhibited a non-competitive mechanism of inhibition (Fig. 1F).
