emt inhibitor 2

EMT Inhibitor-2, targeting both CYP3A4 testosteron and CYP2C9, exhibits inhibitory effects with IC50 values of 49.72 and 5.54 μM, respectively. Furthermore, it effectively impedes the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, induced by immunocyte-released agents like IL-1β and TGF-β.

JNK-1-IN-4 (Compound E1) is an inhibitor of JNK, targeting JNK-1, JNK-2, and JNK-3 with IC50 values of 2.7, 19.0, and 9.0 nM, respectively. This compound inhibits the phosphorylation of c-Jun and reduces the expression of TGF-β1-induced EMT markers (such as fibronectin and α-SMA). JNK-1-IN-4 exhibits favorable pharmacokinetic properties with a bioavailability of 69%. Additionally, it demonstrates antifibrotic effects in a Bleomycin-induced mouse model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

EMT inhibitor-3 (compound 11i) is an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) inhibitor that effectively suppresses the proliferation, migration, and invasion of SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells, with an IC50 value of 2.5 μM. It induces mitochondrial-mediated intrinsic apoptosis in tumor cells by enhancing the Bax Bcl-2 protein expression ratio, promoting the release of cytochrome C from mitochondria, and activating caspase 9 and caspase 3. EMT inhibitor-3 is applicable for cancer research.

FGFRs-IN-1 (Compound A16) is an orally active inhibitor targeting FGFR1 2 3 4, with IC50 values of 2.3, 7, 11, and 163 nM respectively. It also inhibits VEGFR1 2 3, Abl, and Flt3, with IC50 values of 61, 176, 112, 26, and 353 nM. The compound shows weak inhibition of CYP enzymes. FGFRs-IN-1 reduces the expression of α-SMA and collagen I, and it inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in A549 cells stimulated by TGF-β1. Additionally, FGFRs-IN-1 demonstrates anti-inflammatory activity in mouse models of lung fibrosis induced by Bleomycin and liver fibrosis induced by CCl4.

PI3K AKT-IN-2, a dual inhibitor of PI3K and AKT, prevents the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and promotes apoptosis. Additionally, it impedes tubulin polymerization.
