Nintedanib esylate, as a kinase inhibitor, used for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer suffered from first-pass metabolism which resulted in low oral bioavailability (~ 4.7%)[1]. Nintedanib is an effective inhibitor of multityrosine kinase receptors.
In vitro, treatment with 1-4 µM nintedanib in a dose-dependently manner in Keloid fibroblasts inhibited cell proliferation, induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, and suppressed migration and invasion of keloid fibroblasts[2]. In vitro test it shown that at 1 µM Nintedanib and 2.5 mM Pirfenidone decreased fibrotic gene expression including Collagen 1a1 and Fibronectin in murine and human 3D-LTCs as well as pmATII cells[3]. In vitro, 0.01-1.0 µM nintedanib in IPF (Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) fibroblasts decreased the expression of collagen I and V, fibronectin, and FKBP10 and attenuated the secretion of collagen I and III[4].
In vivo efficacy test it exhibited that treatment with 5 mg/mL nintedanib in eye drops four times daily, the outgrowths of blood and lymphatic vessels were obviously inhibited compared with the controls[5]. In vivo, treatment with 3 µM and 5 µM nintedanib in mice up-regulated SP-D (Pulmonary surfactant protein D) messenger RNA expression[6]. In vivo experiment it demonstrated that treatment with nintedanib (50, 100 mg/kg) orally could obviously recover the experimental colitis-related symptoms of mice caused by DSS, such as weight loss, increased DAI, shortened colon length, and colonic tissue injury[7].

Nintedanib esylate，作为一种激酶抑制剂，用于治疗非小细胞肺癌，首过代谢导致口服生物利用度低（~4.7%）[1]。 Nintedanib 是一种有效的多酪氨酸激酶受体抑制剂。
在体外，1-4 μM nintedanib 以剂量依赖性方式治疗瘢痕疙瘩成纤维细胞，抑制细胞增殖，诱导 G0/G1 细胞周期停滞，并抑制瘢痕疙瘩成纤维细胞的迁移和侵袭[2]。体外试验表明，在 1 µM Nintedanib 和 2.5 mM Pirfenidone 下，小鼠和人类 3D-LTC 以及 pmATII 细胞[3] 中的纤维化基因表达（包括胶原蛋白 1a1 和纤连蛋白）降低。在体外，0.01-1.0 µM nintedanib 在 IPF（特发性肺纤维化）成纤维细胞中降低胶原蛋白 I 和 V、纤连蛋白和 FKBP10 的表达，并减弱胶原蛋白 I 和 III 的分泌[4] 。
体内药效试验表明，5mg/mL尼达尼布滴眼液每天4次治疗，与对照组相比，血管和淋巴管的增生明显受到抑制[5]。在体内，用 3 µM 和 5 µM 尼达尼布治疗小鼠可上调 SP-D（肺表面活性蛋白 D）信使 RNA 表达[6]。体内实验表明，口服尼达尼布（50、100 mg/kg）可明显恢复DSS引起的小鼠实验性结肠炎相关症状，如体重减轻、DAI增加、结肠长度缩短、结肠组织损伤[7]。
