Supplier:  Apexbio Technology LLC B37035.1

LB42708 (CAS 226929-39-1) is a selective small-molecule inhibitor of farnesyltransferase (FTase) belonging to a non-peptidic pyrrole-based class It blocks FTase-mediated farnesylation of H-Ras N-Ras and K-Ras4B demonstrated by low nanomolar IC50 values (0 8 nM 1 2 nM and 2 nM respectively) LB42708 shows minimal inhibitory effect on geranylgeranyltransferase I In vitro studies indicate inhibition of Ras-driven signaling pathways decreasing Ras activation and subsequently suppressing VEGF-stimulated endothelial proliferation and migration Researchers use LB42708 in oncology and inflammation studies exemplified by reduced tumor growth in Ras-mutant HCT116 and wild-type Caco-2 xenograft models
