Safety Information of 100012-18-8
Interaction Studies of 100012-18-8
Studies have demonstrated that sorafenib interacts with various cellular pathways:
- Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition: Its primary mechanism involves inhibiting multiple receptor tyrosine kinases, which play crucial roles in cancer cell signaling and angiogenesis.
- Drug Resistance Mechanisms: Research has highlighted noncoding RNAs' roles in mediating resistance to sorafenib, indicating complex interactions at the molecular level that can affect treatment efficacy.
Biological Activity of 100012-18-8
Sorafenib exhibits potent anti-cancer activity through multiple mechanisms:
- Inhibition of Tumor Cell Proliferation: By blocking the Raf/MEK/ERK signaling pathway, sorafenib effectively inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in tumor cells.
- Angiogenesis Inhibition: Sorafenib disrupts angiogenesis by inhibiting the autophosphorylation of receptor tyrosine kinases involved in endothelial cell signaling, particularly VEGFRs and PDGFRs.
- Resistance Mechanisms: Despite its efficacy, resistance to sorafenib can develop through various mechanisms such as activation of alternative signaling pathways (e.g., PI3K/Akt) and upregulation of ATP-binding cassette transporters that expel the drug from cells.
