Information
Imatinib (STI571, CGP057148B, Gleevec) Mesylate is an orally bioavailability mesylate salt of Imatinib, which is a multi-target inhibitor ofv-Abl,c-KitandPDGFRwithIC50of 0.6 μM, 0.1 μM and 0.1 μM in cell-free or cell-based assays, respectively. Imatinib M
In vitro
In vitro assays for inhibition of a panel of tyrosine and serine/threonine protein kinases show that Imatinib inhibits the v-Abl tyrosine kinase and PDGFR potently with an IC50 of 0.6 and 0.1 μM, respectively. Imatinib inhibits the SLF-dependent activation of wild-type c-kit kinase activity with a IC50 for these effects of approximately 0.1 μM, which is similar to the concentration required for inhibition of PDGFR. Imatinib exhibits growth-inhibitory activity on the human bronchial carcinoid cell line NCI-H727 and the human pancreatic carcinoid cell line BON-1 with an IC50 of 32.4 and 32.8 μM, respectively. A recent study shows that Imatinib has the potential to exert its antileukemia effects in chronic myelogenous leukemia by down-regulating hERG1 K(+) channels, which are highly expressed in leukemia cells and appear of exceptional importance in favoring leukemogenesis.
In vivo
Imatinib produces a different antitumor effect on three xenografted tumors derived from surgical samples of fresh human small cell lung cancers, with 80%, 40% and 78% growth inhibition of SCLC6, SCLC61 and SCLC108 tumors, respectively, and no significant inhibition of SCLC74 growth. In high fat fed ApoE(-/-) mice, Imatinib significantly reduces the high fat-induced lipid staining area by 30%, 27% and 35% compared to high-fat diet untreated controls when dosed by gavage at 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg, respectively, and suppresses carotid artery lipid accumulation.
