SM 16
Chemical Name: 4-[4-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-5-(6-methyl-2-pyridinyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1-carboxamide
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
SM 16 is a potent TGF-β receptor type 1 (TGF-βRI) inhibitor (IC50 = 64 nM in luciferase assay). Selective for TGF-βRI over other ALK family members. Decreases Smad phosphorylation and inhibits tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model. Attenuates increased TGF-β signaling in retinal vessels of diabetic rats. Also prevents intimal thickening and vascular remodeling in rat carotid balloon injury model. Orally bioavailable.Technical Data
