SB-505124 hydrochloride is a selective inhibitor of TGF-β Receptor type I receptors (ALK4, ALK5, ALK7), with IC50 values of 129nM and 47nM for ALK4, ALK5, respectively[1]. SB-505124 hydrochloride can inhibit the Wnt and TGF-β1 signaling pathways, reduce inflammatory responses, and decrease the levels of fibrosis markers (such as collagen, α-SMA and fibronectin)[2]. SB-505124 hydrochloride has been widely used to inhibit the differentiation of Th17 cells and regulate inflammation in mouse models of arthritis[3].
In vitro, SB-505124 hydrochloride treatment at 3μM for 10 days significantly inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), reduced the formation of mineralized matrix, and downregulated osteogenic-related genes[4]. Treatment with SB-505124 hydrochloride (2.5μM) for 24 hours significantly enhanced the sensitivity of doxorubicin (DTX)-resistant DU 145 cells to DTX and induced cell death[5]. Pretreatment of rabbit conjunctival submucosal fibroblasts with 10µM SB-505124 hydrochloride for 1 hour significantly reduced the level of pSmad2 induced by TGF-β2 as well as the expressions of CTGF and α-SMA[6].
In vivo, SB-505124 hydrochloride treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 10mg/kg once every 12 hours for 5 days alleviated the extent of tertiary neurodegeneration and blood-brain barrier dysfunction in the perinatal mouse model with hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, and improved sensory-motor deficits[7]. SB-505124 hydrochloride treatment for 2 weeks (5mg/kg/day; i.p.) caused the increase of erythrocytes in the peripheral blood and the normalized proportion of erythroblast cell clusters in the Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cell-xenograft mouse models[8].

SB-505124 hydrochloride是一种选择性TGF-β I型受体（ALK4、ALK5、ALK7）抑制剂，对ALK4和ALK5的IC50值分别为129nM和47nM[1]。SB-505124 hydrochloride能够抑制Wnt和TGF-β1信号通路，减轻炎症反应，并降低纤维化标志物（如胶原蛋白、α-SMA和纤连蛋白）的水平[2]。SB-505124 hydrochloride已被广泛用于抑制Th17细胞分化，并在关节炎小鼠模型中调节炎症[3]。
在体外，使用3µM的SB-505124 hydrochloride处理10天，显著抑制了人骨髓间充质干细胞（hBMSCs）的成骨分化，减少了矿化基质的形成，并下调了成骨相关基因的表达[4]。使用2.5µM的SB-505124 hydrochloride处理24小时，显著增强了doxorubicin（DTX）耐药的DU 145细胞对DTX的敏感性，并诱导细胞死亡[5]。用10µM的SB-505124 hydrochloride预处理兔结膜黏膜下成纤维细胞1小时，显著降低了TGF-β2诱导的pSmad2水平以及CTGF和α-SMA的表达[6]。
