- Product Overview:
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) is the receptor for fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19), which is a tightly controlled hormone that regulates bile acid synthesis and hepatocyte proliferation in the normal liver. Aberrant signaling through the FGFR4/FGF19 signaling complex has been implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).{30600} BLU-9931 is a small molecule inhibitor of FGFR4 (IC50 = 3 nM) that is selective for FGFR4 over other FGFR family members (IC50s = 591, 493, and 150 nM for FGFR1, 2, and 3, respectively) and an extensive panel of additional kinases (selectivity score for BLU-9931 at 3 µM is 0.005).{30600} It inhibits proliferation of HCC cell lines with an activated FGFR4 signaling pathway (EC50s = 0.02-0.11 µM) and demonstrates antitumor activity when administered orally at 100 mg/kg to mice bearing HCC xenografts that overexpresses FGF19 due to amplification or to mice bearing liver tumor xenografts that overexpresses FGF19 mRNA but lack FGF19 amplification.{30600}
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
