SU-5402 (215543-92-3) inhibits FGFR phosphorylation in vitro, in cell culture1, and in mouse tumor cell models2. SU-5402 can suppress ECP induced cardiomyocyte differentiation of P19CL6 embryonic carcinoma cells via an FGFR3 dependent pathway.3
SU5402 has been used as a fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitor:
- in cell signalling experiments to stimulate cells for MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay
- to study its effect on the expression of osteogenic markers and expression of osteoprotegerin and RANKL (runt-related transcription factor(RUNX)-2
- to prepare a stock solution with DMSO (Dimethyl superoxide) for cell culture medium and also to co-treat embryos
- to study its effect on osteogenic markers.
SU 5402 is a specific FGFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) inhibitor (1,2,3,4). It is also an intermediate for 3-(hetero)arylmethylidene-2-indolinone derivatives as modulators of protein kinase activity for use in treating cancer.

er.
ChEBI: An oxindole that is 3-methyleneoxindole in which one of the hydrogens of the methylene group is substituted by a 3-(2-carboxyethyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl group. It is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase activity of fibr
blast growth factor receptor 1.
Potent and selective vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor (IC 50 values are 0.02, 0.03, 0.51 and > 100 μ M at VEGFR2, FGFR1, PDGFR β and EGFR respectively). Inhibits embryonic left-right determination and exhibits potent anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo .
SU-5402 has inhibitory effect on the action of tyrosine kinases. It competitively binds to the ATP-binding site on the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR).
su5402 could inhibit fgfr3 phosphorylation in vitro. b cells dependent on fgfr3 for survival were sensitive to su5402 specifically. a panel of 11 human myeloma cell lines was studied, among which five beared t(4;14) translocation. the kms11 human myeloma cell line expressesing constitutively active mutant fgfr3, displayed a 95% increase in g0/g1 cells as well as 45-fold increase in apoptotic cells after su5402 treatment. in addition, the activated signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 and signal activator of transcription 3 were down-regulated after su5402 treatment rapidly. in human myeloma cell lines with wild-type fgfr3, the stimulating effect of afgf ligand was abrogated by su5402 [1].
balb/c mice were inoculated with syngeneic pre-b-td cells and these established tumours were treated with 300 ng/kg su5402 or carrier alone administered by either direct subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection. tumours were collected 24 h later and western blot analyses indicated a treatment-related decrease in the levels of activated erk1/2 in the harvested tumors [1].
