5-Substituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine, an inhibitor against three receptor tyrosine kinases

NP506, the 3-{2,4-dimethyl-5-[2-oxo-5-(N′-phenylhydrazinocarbonyl)-1,2-dihydro-indol-3-ylidenemethyl]-1H-pyrrol-3-yl}-propionic acid, was designed as FGF receptor 1 inhibitor by computational study and found to be more active against endothelial proliferation of HUVEC after the rhFGF-2 stimulation than SU6668 with minimum effective dose of 10 μM. NP506 inhibited the tyrosine phosphorylation in FGF, VEGF, and PDGF receptors and the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun-N-terminal-kinase (JNK) and AKT after the rhFGF-2 stimulation. The introduction of the phenyl hydrazide motif to the position 5 of the pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold led to the inhibitory effect in two signaling pathways: inhibition of AKT activation in the phosphatidyl inositol 3′-kinase (PI13K)/AKT signaling pathway and the inhibition of ERK and JNK activation in MAPK pathway.
