| Bioactivity | Selumetinib (AZD6244) is selective, non-ATP-competitive oral MEK1/2 inhibitor, with an IC50 of 14 nM for MEK1. Selumetinib (AZD6244) inhibits ERK1/2 phosphorylation. |
| Invitro | Selumetinib (AZD6244) causes a time- and dose-dependent reduction in DNA synthesis and cell viability in primary, induces growth arrest and apoptosis associated with the inactivation of ERK in primary 2-1318 cells[1].Selumetinib (AZD6244) (1µM) shows anti-proliferative effects through G0/G1 arrest on H-441, H-1437 cells[2].Selumetinib (AZD6244) results in the growth inhibition of several cell lines containing B-Raf and Ras mutations but has no effect on a normal fibroblast cell line[3]. |
