Bioactivity | Ferulic acid sodium is a novel fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) inhibitor with IC50s of 3.78 and 12.5 μM for FGFR1 and FGFR2, respectively. |
Invitro | Ferulic acid (FA) is a novel fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) inhibitor with IC50s of 3.78 and 12.5 μM for FGFR1 and FGFR2, respectively. Ferulic acid exhibits great inhibitory activity on FGFR1 with an inhibitory rate of 92% at 1 µM. The proliferation of HUVEC stimulated by FGF1 is markedly decreased after Ferulic acid treatment ranging from 5 to 40 μM for 24 h. Ferulic acid does not exert significant cell viability up to 20 μM, but over 30 μM Ferulic acid exhibits a cytotoxic effect in HUVEC compare to the control. Ferulic acid inhibits FGF1-induced HUVEC migration and invasion in a dose-dependent manner. Ferulic acid markedly suppresses the FGF1-induced phosphorylation of PI3K and Akt. Ferulic acid treatments significantly inhibit MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression stimulated by FGF1[1]. |
