CCG-222740 is a selective, orally active Rho/myocardin-related transcription factor (MRTF) pathway inhibitor. CCG-222740 is also a potent inhibitor of alpha-smooth muscle actin protein expression. CCG-222740 markedly decreased SRF reporter gene activity and showed a greater inhibitory effect on MRTF/SRF target genes than the previously described MRTF-A inhibitor CCG-203971. CCG-222740 increases the protein levels of p27 and decreased cyclin D1. CCG-222740 treatment decreased cell viability of CAFs, with an IC50 of~10 μM.
In vivo, CCG-222740 (100 mg/kg; oral gavage for 7 days) significantly reduces α-SMA levels in the pancreas of caerulein-stimulated KC mice.

Cell lines | Cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) |
Preparation method | Murine cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum(FBS). CAFs are treated with several concentrations of CCG-222740 (740) for 72 hours, and levels of Cyclin D1 and p27 are evaluated by western blot. |

Formulation | dissolved in 15% (v/v) DMSO and then added to a solution of 10% tween-20 in saline |
Dosages | 100 mg/kg |

Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
