Description:

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

SB505124:  SB505124 is a selective inhibitor of transforming growth factor-β type I receptor (ALK5, ALK4 and ALK7) with potential anticancer activity. SB505124 selectively inhibits signaling from TGF-β and activin; does not inhibit other ALK family members. SB-505124 selectively and concentration-dependently inhibits ALK4-, ALK5-, and ALK 7-dependent activation of downstream cytoplasmic signal transducers, Smad2 and Smad3, and of TGF-beta-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway components but does not alter ALK1, ALK2, ALK3 or ALK6-induced Smad signaling.

Biological target:
SB-505124 is a selective inhibitor of TGF-β Receptor type I receptors (ALK4, ALK5, ALK7), with IC50s of 129 nM and 47 nM for ALK4, ALK5, respectively, but it does not inhibit ALK1, 2, 3, or 6.
In vitro activity:
Pharmacological inhibition of the ACVR1C receptor using SB505124, a selective inhibitor of ALK4/5/7 receptors, significantly reduced growth (Figure 3a, c, e) and invasion (Figure 3b, d, f) of cultured retinoblastoma cells in a dose-dependent manner. In WERI Rb1 cells, growth was potently suppressed, starting at 2 µM after 3, 5, and 7 days of treatment (Figure 3a). Y79 growth was almost completely suppressed at concentrations ≥ 1 µM (Figure 3c), while HSJD-RBVS-10 cells were somewhat less responsive to SB505124-mediated growth inhibition (Figure 3e). Nevertheless, SB505124 potently suppressed invasion of all three lines in a dose-dependent manner, as found by transwell invasion assay, with more than 70% inhibition in the ability of the cells to invade through a Matrigel-coated filter at concentrations ≥ 3 µM (Figure 3b, d, f).

In vivo activity:
In this study, SB505124 was found to be effective in rescuing symptoms during CRA (cancer-related anemia). SB505124 is a small molecule inhibitor of the TGFβ type I receptor serine/threonine kinase known as activin receptor-like kinase (ALK). Indeed, this study observed that SB505124 significantly rescued erythrocyte reduction, ameliorated the hindered hematopoiesis, and improved the HSC niche in the bone marrow. Results suggest that the TGFβ signaling pathway could be targeted to restore the HSC niche and rescue CRA. Several TGFβ pathway inhibitors are currently under clinical trials and have shown acceptable safety, tolerability, and efficacy for slowing the progression of solid tumors and myelodysplastic syndrome. These details, combined with present novel findings in the LLC-bearing mouse model, suggest that SB505124 is a safe and effective treatment that could be developed for CRA and potentially other cancer-related disorders.
