| Targets |
N‑Desethyl Sunitinib hydrochloride targets the same kinases as its parent compound Sunitinib: VEGFR‑1, VEGFR‑2, VEGFR‑3, PDGFRβ, and KIT, with Ki values of 2, 9, 17, 8, and 4 nM, respectively. It is an ATP‑competitive inhibitor that binds to the kinase ATP‑binding pocket, preventing phosphorylation and downstream signaling. This inhibition leads to anti‑angiogenic and anti‑proliferative effects.

| ln Vitro |
Moreover, sunitinib strongly inhibits FLT-3 and Kit[1]. With a Ki of 9 nM and 8 nM, respectively, sunitinib is a strong ATP-competitive inhibitor of VEGFR2(Flk1) and PDGFRβ. Its selectivity for VEGFR2 and PDGFR is >10-fold higher than that of FGFR-1, EGFR, Cdk2, Met, IGFR-1, Abl, and src. Sunitinib suppresses VEGF-dependent VEGFR2 phosphorylation and PDGF-dependent PDGFRβ phosphorylation with IC50 values of 10 nM and 10 nM, respectively, in serum-starved NIH-3T3 cells expressing VEGFR2 or PDGFRβ. With an IC50 of 40 nM for VEGF, sunitinib prevents serum-starved HUVECs from proliferating, and an IC50 of 39 nM and 69 nM for PDGF, respectively, prevents NIH-3T3 cells overexpressing PDGFRβ or PDGFRβ from proliferating[2]. For wild-type FLT3, FLT3-ITD, and FLT3-Asp835, sunitinib suppresses phosphorylation with IC50 values of 250 nM, 50 nM, and 30 nM, respectively. Sunitinib causes apoptosis in MV4;11 and OC1-AML5 cells in a dose-dependent manner[3] and suppresses their growth with IC50 values of 8 nM and 14 nM, respectively.
In vitro, N‑Desethyl Sunitinib hydrochloride exhibits the same kinase inhibitory activity as Sunitinib. Sunitinib inhibits VEGF‑dependent VEGFR2 phosphorylation and PDGF‑dependent PDGFRβ phosphorylation with IC50 values of 10 nM each. It inhibits VEGF‑induced proliferation of HUVECs with an IC50 of 40 nM and PDGF‑induced proliferation of NIH‑3T3 cells overexpressing PDGFRβ or PDGFRα with IC50 values of 39 nM and 69 nM, respectively. |
| ln Vivo |
Sunitinib (20-80 mg/kg/day) significantly and selectively inhibits VEGFR2 or PDGFR phosphorylation and signaling in vivo, as demonstrated by its broad and strong dose-dependent anti-tumor activity against a range of tumor xenograft models, such as HT-29, A431, Colo205, H-460, SF763T, C6, A375, or MDA-MB-435. When sunitinib (80 mg/kg/day) is administered for 21 days, six out of eight mice experience complete tumor regression, with no tumor growth during the 110-day observation period following the conclusion of treatment. For cancers that do not completely regress after the first round of treatment, a second round of Sunitinib treatment is still effective. Tumor MVD is significantly reduced with sunitinib treatment, with SF763T glioma tumors reduced by approximately 40%. While the size of the tumor remains same, SU11248 therapy completely inhibits further tumor growth in luciferase-expressing PC-3M xenografts[2]. Sunitinib therapy (20 mg/kg/day) prolongs survival in the FLT3-ITD bone marrow engraftment model and greatly reduces the growth subcutaneous MV4;11 (FLT3-ITD) xenografts[3].
In vivo, Sunitinib (20‑80 mg/kg/day) exhibits broad and potent dose‑dependent anti‑tumor activity against a variety of tumor xenograft models, including HT‑29, A431, Colo205, H‑460, SF763T, C6, A375, and MDA‑MB‑435. The N‑desethyl modification improves the pharmacokinetic profile and contributes significantly to the therapeutic effects of Sunitinib in vivo. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Non‑cellular kinase assays for N‑Desethyl Sunitinib hydrochloride involve measuring its inhibitory activity against purified kinases (VEGFR‑1, ‑2, ‑3, PDGFRβ, KIT). The compound is incubated with the kinase and a peptide substrate in the presence of ATP, and the inhibition of phosphorylation is quantified to determine Ki values.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for N‑Desethyl Sunitinib hydrochloride are performed using various cell lines. HUVECs are treated with the compound to assess inhibition of VEGF‑induced proliferation. NIH‑3T3 cells overexpressing PDGFRβ or PDGFRα are used to assess inhibition of PDGF‑induced proliferation. MV4;11 and OC1‑AML5 cells are used to assess inhibition of proliferation and induction of apoptosis.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
