Description

General description

A cell-permeable, reversible, substrate competitive, and specific inhibitor of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin receptor kinases with significantly lower IC₅₀ values for IGF-1 than for insulin receptors. Induces apoptosis by downregulating the expression of phospho-Akt1 and Bcl-2; and increasing the expression of Bax, p53 and p21. Reported to enhance the radiosensitivity of human breast cancer cells.

A cell-permeable, reversible, substrate competitive, and specific inhibitor of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity. Exhibits lower IC₅₀ values for IGF-1 than for the insulin receptor. Also inhibits insulin-stimulated cellular proliferation.
