fak inhibitor 7

FAK inhibitor7, a potent FAK inhibitor, demonstrates an IC50 of 3.58 nM. This compound effectively inhibits downstream signaling cascades of FAK (such as Src and AKT), which leads to cell cycle arrest at the G0 G1 phase and induces cytotoxic autophagy in ovarian cancer cells. Additionally, FAK inhibitor7 has been shown to suppress tumor metastasis and growth in ovarian cancer mouse models.

FAK-IN-10 is an inhibitor of FAK (IC50: 76.3 μM) and demonstrates antitumor activity in MCF-7 and A431 cell lines with IC50 values of 4.23 μM and 0.78 μM, respectively.

FAK-IN-7 has potential antiproliferative activity and is a FAK inhibitor.

Azurin (50-77) is a peptide fragment derived from the copper-containing bacterial protein azurin, present in P. aeruginosa. It exhibits properties that regulate the cell cycle, inhibit cancer proliferation, and manage angiogenesis, proving its potential as an anticancer agent. Specifically, this compound acts as a VEGFR2 inhibitor with an IC20 of approximately 10.7 µM. At a concentration of 20 µM, it effectively induces cell cycle arrest at the G2 M phase in MCF-7 breast cancer cells, while a higher concentration of 50 µM significantly reduces the proliferation of both MCF-7 and ZR-75-1 breast cancer cell lines. Furthermore, Azurin (50-77) impedes VEGF-A-induced capillary tube formation with an IC50 of 12 µM, and alters the cellular and extracellular levels of critical signaling and structural proteins such as F-actin, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), paxillin, and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) at a concentration of 25 µM. Demonstrating its efficacy in vivo, Azurin (50-77) administered at 10 mg kg per day notably reduces tumor volume in an MCF-7 mouse xenograft model, highlighting its therapeutic potential.
