Brief Description

Motesanib (AMG-706) is a potent ATP-competitive inhibitor of VEGFR1/2/3 with IC50 of 2 nM/3 nM/6 nM, respectively; similar activity against Kit, ~10-fold more selective for VEGFR than PDGFR and Ret.
IC50 value: 2 nM/3 nM/6 nM/8 nM(VEGFR1/2/3/c-Kit) [1]
Target: pan-VEGFR; Kit
in vitro: Motesanib Diphosphate has broad activity against the human VEGFR family, and displays >1000 selectivity against EGFR, Src, and p38 kinase. Motesanib Diphosphate significantly inhibits VEGF-induced cellular proliferation of HUVECs with an IC50 of 10 nM, while displaying little effect at bFGF-induced proliferation with an IC50 of >3,000 nM. Motesanib Diphosphate also potently inhibits PDGF-induced proliferation and SCF-induced c-kit phosphorylation with IC50 of 207 nM and 37 nM, respectively, but not effective against the EGF-induced EGFR phosphorylation and cell viability of A431 cells [1]. Althouth displaying little antiproliferative activity on cell growth of HUVECs alone, Motesanib Diphosphate treatment significantly sensitizes the cells to fractionated radiation [2].
