Description:

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

SB-431542 is a novel small molecule inhibitor of the type I TGF-beta receptor, on a panel of human malignant glioma cell lines. SB-431542 blocked the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of the SMADs, intracellular mediators of TGF-beta signaling, with decreased TGF-beta-mediated transcription. Furthermore, SB-431542 inhibited the expression of two critical effectors of TGF-beta-vascular endothelial growth factor and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.

More Info
     
Biological target:
SB-431542 is an inhibitor of ALK5/TGF-β type I Receptor with an IC50 value of 94 nM.
In vitro activity:
This study showed that the exposure of iPSCs and ESCs to SB431542 promotes the differentiation of these pluripotent stem cells to cells with characteristics that closely resemble those of hMSCs. In the absence of SB431542, undifferentiated iPSCs and ESCs cultured on Geltrex in complete E8 medium appeared as circular and flat colonies with a well-defined border. As expected, these cells lacked expression of the mesenchymal stem cell markers CD29 and CD44 and expressed high levels of the pluripotent stem cell markers Tra 1-60, Oct-4, SSEA-3, CD90, CD9, and HSP90β.

In vivo activity:
This study performed a fluorescent modified-TUNEL assay on injured muscle from PDGFRα-GFP reporter mice (N = 3/group) to assess for apoptotic cells. This study observed an increase in number of apoptotic cells in injured muscle of mice treated with SB431542 compared to vehicle (Fig 7C and 7D), with an FAP cell apoptotic index of 8.3 ± 1.4% in the injured muscle of mice treated with SB431542 compared to 3.0 ± 0.8% in the vehicle group (Fig 7E, p<0.05). There was no significant difference in apoptotic index of the sham-side muscle of both groups, with indices of 8.5 ± 2.1% and 10.9 ± 4.6% in the treatment and vehicle groups, respectively (Fig 7A and 7B).
