Biological activities

AG1024 is an IGF-1R inhibitor. AG1024 inhibits insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-1R with an IC50 of about 400 nM. AG1024 has anti-tumor activity. IGF-1 plays an important growth-promoting effect by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, inhibiting apoptotic pathways and mediating mitogenic actions. AG1024 has stimulatory effects on proliferation, radiosensitivity, and radiation-induced cell apoptosis in a human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Exposure to AG1024 inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in a time-dependent manner, and the degree of growth inhibition for IC20 plus irradiation (4 Gy) is up to 50% compared to the control.[1] Moreover, AG1024 inhibits the mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK) pathway and restores pRb tumor suppressive function. In addition, in vivo, AG1024-induces apoptosis is associated with a down-regulation of expression of phospho-Akt1, increased expression of Bax, p53 and p21, and a decreased expression of bcl-2 expression. AG1024 also inhibits the MAPK/ERK pathway and restores pRb tumor suppressive function.[2]

Protocols

In vitro, AG1024 is dissolved in DMSO.[3]
