Lavendustin A

Biochem/physiol Actions

Reversible: yes

Primary TargetEGF receptor tyrosine kinase

Product does not compete with ATP.

Target IC₅₀: 11 nM and 500 nM against EGF receptor tyrosine kinase and p60c-src, respectively

Cell permeable: yes

General description

A cell-permeable, reversible, substrate competitive, and potent inhibitor of EGF receptor tyrosine kinase (IC₅₀ = 11 nM) and pp60^c-src (IC₅₀ = 500 nM) with little effect on protein kinase A or protein kinase C (IC₅₀ >200 µM). Also inhibits NMDA-stimulated cGMP production (IC₅₀ = 30 nM). Exhibits anti-proliferative properties. Suppresses the angiogenic action of vascular endothelial growth factor in rats.
