|
[134036-52-5] |
Storage: Store at or below -20 ºC. Solubility: Soluble in
DMSO. Appearance: Cream solid. Disposal: A
 | Specific and potent JAK-2 protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Also
inhibits EGF receptor autophosphorylation, with an IC50
of 100 nM. Inhibits DNA synthesis and cell growth; induces apoptosis.

 | Inhibits the growth of leukemic cells in vitro and in vivo.
Blocks STAT3 constitutive activation and inhibits both interleukin
2(IL2)-induced and spontaneous growth of Mycosis fungoides (MF), a cutaneous
T cell lymphoma. Growth of human ovarian and breast cancer cell lines was
shown to be significantly suppressed by AG 490 via JAK/STAT3 pathway
inhibition. Meydan, N., et al. "Inhibition of acute lymphoblastic
leukaemia by a Jak-2 inhibitor." Nature 379: 645-648 (1996).
