ALK5 4.83 nM (IC50) p38α 1.5 μM (IC50)
EW-7195 targets activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5, also known as TβRI), the type I receptor for TGF-β. ALK5 is a serine/threonine kinase that, upon TGF-β binding, phosphorylates SMAD2 and SMAD3, leading to their nuclear translocation and regulation of gene expression involved in fibrosis, EMT, and cancer progression. EW-7195 is a potent and selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of ALK5 with an IC₅₀ of 4.83 nM. By blocking ALK5 kinase activity, EW-7195 inhibits TGF-β1-induced Smad2 phosphorylation and subsequent nuclear translocation of the Smad2/3 complex. |

| ln Vitro |
Breast cancer cells' EMT, motility, and invasiveness are all inhibited in vitro by EW7195. Effectively inhibiting TGF-β1-induced Smad2 phosphorylation and subsequent Smad2/3 nuclear translocation is EW-7195. TGF-β1-induced mesenchymal morphology is inhibited by EW-7195. TGF-β-induced transcriptional activation is inhibited by EW-7195[1]. TGF-β1-induced Smad2 phosphorylation is effectively inhibited by EW-7195 (0.5–1 µM; 1.5 hours)[1].
In vitro, EW-7195 inhibits ALK5 kinase with an IC₅₀ of 4.83 nM. It effectively blocks TGF-β1-induced Smad signaling. The compound inhibits TGF-β1-induced Smad2 phosphorylation and subsequent nuclear translocation of the Smad2/3 complex, thereby suppressing EMT. Luciferase reporter assays are widely used to study the activity of this pathway. EW-7195 has been shown to inhibit breast cancer metastasis to the lung in various mouse models. Its activity makes it a valuable tool for studying TGF-β signaling in fibrosis and cancer. |
| ln Vivo |
EW7195 (40 mg/kg; ip; three times a week for 3/2.5 weeks) prevents the growth of lung metastases in both MMTV/cNeu transgenic mice and 4T1 orthotopic xenograft mice[1].
In vivo, EW-7195 has been shown to inhibit breast cancer metastasis to the lung in various mouse models. The compound suppresses EMT and inhibits the metastatic spread of cancer cells. It has also been investigated for its effects on fibrosis and inflammation, including diabetic nephropathy. EW-7195 attenuates the progression of diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice through suppression of fibrogenesis and inflammation. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its efficacy and safety across different indications. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for EW-7195 typically involve kinase activity assays using purified ALK5 protein. The compound's ability to inhibit ALK5 kinase activity is assessed using radiometric or fluorescence-based kinase assays with appropriate peptide substrates. IC₅₀ values (4.83 nM) are determined through dose-response experiments. Selectivity against other kinases is confirmed through parallel kinase panel screening. The compound's ability to inhibit TGF-β1-induced Smad signaling is assessed in cell-based assays measuring SMAD2/3 phosphorylation by Western blot or using SMAD-responsive reporter gene assays.

| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for EW-7195 utilize cell lines that respond to TGF-β signaling. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound for 24-48 hours, followed by stimulation with TGF-β1. TGF-β1-induced Smad2 phosphorylation is measured by Western blot. SMAD-responsive reporter gene assays using (CAGA)12-luciferase or similar constructs are employed to assess transcriptional activity. EMT markers such as E-cadherin and vimentin are assessed by Western blot or immunofluorescence. Cell migration and invasion assays can also be performed. Standard cell culture conditions (37°C, 5% CO₂) with appropriate media are employed.
