SU5416 is a small-molecule Flk-1/KDR inhibitor that inhibits autophosphorylation of the Flk-1 receptor, with an IC50 value of 1.23μM[1]. SU5416 acts selectively as a competitive inhibitor, binding to the ATP catalytic site, within the kinase domain of the receptor, which induces a blockade of VEGFR2 signaling, inhibiting the VEGF-dependent proliferation of endothelial cells[2]. SU5416 has been widely used to induce apoptosis of pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs) and to induce vascular occlusive pulmonary hypertension in rats[3].
In vitro, SU5416 treatment for 48 hours significantly inhibited the viability of B16-F10 cells and MCF-7 cells, with IC50 values of 3.6nM and 3.1nM, respectively[4]. 5μM SU5416 treatment for 24 hours significantly increased the expression of endoglin in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)[5]. Treatment with 2μM SU5416 for 24 hours significantly inhibited the invasion of HepG2 cells stimulated by 20ng/ml hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and reduced Met tyrosine phosphorylation[6].
In vivo, SU5416 treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 50mg/kg, twice a week for 2 weeks, significantly alleviated bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice and inhibited the activation of the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway[7]. Intraperitoneal injection of SU5416 at a dose of 15mg/kg/day for 7 weeks significantly inhibited the tumor volume growth and liver metastasis in the SGC-7901 xenograft mouse model[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
|
Cell lines |
B16-F10 cells |
|
Preparation Method |
B16-F10 cells were cultured in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37°C in 5% CO2/atmosphere. B16-F10 cells cultured were seeded onto 96-well microplates (5×103 cells/well) and cultured for 24h. Cells were treated with SU5416 at increasing concentrations (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000nM) in the presence of 10% FBS for 48h, cell viability was assessed. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
0, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000nM; 48h |
|
Applications |
SU5416 treatment reduced the cell viability of B16-F10 cells in a dose-dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
Male BALB/c nu/nu nude mice |
|
Preparation Method |
Male BALB/c nu/nu nude mice (4 weeks old; 18-22g) were housed under controlled temperature (21-23°C), humidity (30-35%) and light cycle (7:00 AM to 7:00 PM) and maintained on a standard rodent diet. The mice received a subcutaneous injection of 2×106 SGC-7901 cells in 0.1ml of saline. One week after implantation, the four groups were given four different solutions intraperitoneally: saline solution (control group), and SU5416 (15mg/kg/day). Treatment was continued for 7 weeks. The mice were killed at 8 weeks after tumor implantation and the tumors were removed for analysis. |

Dosage form |

|
Applications |
SU5416 treatment significantly inhibited tumor growth in mice with SGC-7901 xenografts. |
