Product Description
MAZ-51 is a novel, potent and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor for VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). Without obstructing VEGF-C-mediated stimulation of VEGFR2, MAZ51 suppresses VEGF-C-induced activation of VEGFR-3. MAZ51 had no effect on EGFR, IGF-1R, or PDGFRβ autophosphorylation induced by ligands. MAZ51 causes apoptosis and inhibits the growth of many tumor cell types. anticancer action.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
VEGFR-3; Akt; GSK3β; RhoA
MAZ51 preferentially targets vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR-3, Flt-4) with an IC50 of 25 nM for VEGF-C-induced VEGFR-3 activation, and exhibits lower potency against VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1) with an IC50 of 4.5 μM [1]
It shows no significant inhibition of other kinases (e.g., PDGFRβ, c-Kit, EGFR) at concentrations up to 10 μM [1]
ln Vitro
MAZ51 (2.5-10 μM; 24 hours) causes apoptosis and inhibits the growth of many different types of tumor cells[2]. MAZ51 (0.5-50 μM; 25 minutes) does not affect the ligand-induced autophosphorylation of PDGFRβ, IGF-1R, or EGFR in A431 cells, HEK-293 cells, or PAE cells, respectively[2].
MAZ51 (1-100 nM) dose-dependently inhibits VEGF-C- and VEGF-D-induced VEGFR-3 phosphorylation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), with maximum inhibition (>80%) at 50 nM [1]
- It blocks VEGF-C-mediated HUVEC proliferation (IC50 = 32 nM) and migration (50% inhibition at 25 nM), without affecting basal proliferation of HUVECs in the absence of VEGF-C [1]
- Against various tumor cell lines (A549 lung cancer, MCF-7 breast cancer, HT-29 colorectal cancer, B16F10 melanoma), MAZ51 inhibits proliferation with IC50 values ranging from 0.8 μM to 3.5 μM after 72 hours of treatment [2]
- Western blot analysis reveals that MAZ51 (1 μM, 24 h) inhibits VEGFR-3-mediated downstream signaling (ERK1/2 and AKT phosphorylation) in HUVECs and A549 cells, without altering total VEGFR-3, ERK1/2, or AKT protein levels [1][2]
- The compound (2 μM, 48 h) induces G1 cell cycle arrest in A549 cells (G1 phase ratio increased from ~40% to ~63%) and reduces colony formation by 65% compared to the control group [2]
ln Vivo
MAZ51 (8 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 15 day) tumor growth is significantly suppressed by MAZ51[2].
In B16F10 melanoma xenograft model in C57BL/6 mice, intraperitoneal administration of MAZ51 at 25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg once daily for 14 days results in tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rates of 58% and 79%, respectively [2]
- MAZ51 (50 mg/kg) reduces tumor weight from ~1.0 g (vehicle control) to ~0.21 g, and decreases microvessel density (CD31-positive vessels) in tumors by ~60% (immunohistochemical staining) [2]
- No significant body weight loss (<4%) or histopathological abnormalities in major organs (liver, kidney, heart, lung) are observed in treated mice [2]
Enzyme Assay
VEGFR-3 kinase activity assay: Recombinant human VEGFR-3 kinase domain is incubated with ATP (Km = 15 μM) and biotinylated peptide substrate in the presence of serial dilutions of MAZ51. After incubation at 30°C for 60 minutes, streptavidin-conjugated beads are added to capture the substrate, and phosphorylated peptide is detected using an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. IC50 values are calculated by fitting dose-response curves of kinase activity inhibition [1]
- VEGFR-2 selectivity assay: The same kinase activity assay is performed with recombinant VEGFR-2 kinase domain to determine the IC50 for VEGFR-2, and selectivity ratio (VEGFR-2 IC50 / VEGFR-3 IC50) is calculated [1]
Cell Assay
HUVEC proliferation assay: HUVECs are seeded in 96-well plates and starved for 12 hours. MAZ51 (0.1 nM-1 μM) is added, followed by VEGF-C (50 ng/mL) stimulation. Cells are cultured for 72 hours, and cell viability is assessed using a tetrazolium salt-based colorimetric assay to determine IC50 [1]
- Tumor cell antiproliferative assay: A549, MCF-7, HT-29, or B16F10 cells are seeded in 96-well plates, treated with MAZ51 (0.1 μM-10 μM) for 72 hours, and cell viability is measured by the same colorimetric assay to calculate IC50 [2]
- Western blot assay: HUVECs or A549 cells are treated with MAZ51 (0.1-5 μM) for 24 hours, lysed in buffer containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Proteins are separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to membranes, and probed with antibodies against p-VEGFR-3, VEGFR-3, p-ERK1/2, ERK1/2, p-AKT, AKT, and β-actin [1][2]
- Colony formation assay: A549 cells are seeded in 6-well plates at 500 cells/well, treated with MAZ51 (0.5-2 μM) for 14 days. Colonies are fixed, stained with crystal violet, and counted to calculate inhibition rate [2]
Animal Protocol
Wistar Furth rats (bearing MT450 cells)[1]
8 mg/kg
Intraperitoneal injection; daily for 15 day
B16F10 melanoma xenograft model: Female C57BL/6 mice (6-7 weeks old) are subcutaneously inoculated with 2×10⁶ B16F10 cells into the right flank. When tumors reach an average volume of 100 mm³, mice are randomly divided into three groups (n=8 per group): vehicle control, MAZ51 25 mg/kg, and 50 mg/kg. The compound is dissolved in DMSO and diluted with normal saline (final DMSO concentration ≤5%) and administered via intraperitoneal injection once daily for 14 consecutive days. Tumor volume (length × width² / 2) and body weight are recorded every 2 days. At sacrifice, tumors are excised for weight measurement and immunohistochemical staining (CD31) [2]
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
In a 14-day in vivo study, intraperitoneal injection of MAZ51 at doses up to 50 mg/kg did not cause significant weight loss, death, or histopathological abnormalities in major organs (liver, kidney, heart, lung, spleen) [2]. The compound did not show significant cytotoxicity to normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) at concentrations up to 5 μM [2].

Additional Infomation
3-[[4-(dimethylamino)-1-naphthyl]methylene]-1H-indole-2-one belongs to the naphthalene family. MAZ51 is an indole ketone derivative and a selective inhibitor of VEGFR-3, developed for the purpose of treating cancer by targeting lymphangiogenesis and angiogenesis[1][2]. Its mechanism of action involves competitive binding to the ATP-binding pocket of VEGFR-3, inhibiting VEGF-C/D-induced VEGFR-3 phosphorylation and downstream ERK1/2/AKT signaling pathways, thereby inhibiting endothelial cell proliferation/migration and tumor angiogenesis/lymphangiogenesis[1]. Its selectivity for VEGFR-3 is much higher than that for VEGFR-2 (>180-fold), which reduces potential off-target effects associated with VEGFR-2 inhibition (e.g., hypertension, proteinuria)[1]. This compound exerts anti-angiogenic and direct anti-tumor effects by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and inducing cell cycle arrest [2]
