VEGFR2/KDR/Flk-1

VEGFR2 (KDR/Flk-1) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that serves as a central signal transducer for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-driven angiogenesis and endothelial cell development[1]. Upon binding VEGF ligands, including VEGF-A and certain processed forms of VEGF-C and VEGF-D, VEGFR2 undergoes activation and tyrosine phosphorylation, initiating downstream signaling pathways that regulate endothelial proliferation, migration, survival, and neovascularization[2]. Mechanistically, VEGFR2 signaling is essential for vascular network formation and maintenance, and it supports endothelial cell survival through anti-apoptotic signaling programs. In pathological settings, VEGFR2 plays a critical role in tumor angiogenesis and other forms of disease-associated neovascularization, making this receptor a major focus of vascular biology and translational research[1]. Compared with the related VEGF receptor isoform VEGFR1 (Flt-1), VEGFR2 functions as the principal mediator of angiogenic signaling, whereas VEGFR1 displays distinct signaling properties and can negatively regulate VEGFR2-dependent responses[2][3]. Experimental studies further demonstrate that blockade of VEGFR2, but not VEGFR1, inhibits VEGF-induced endothelial tube formation, highlighting the dominant role of VEGFR2 in angiogenic processes[4]. Consequently, VEGFR2 has become an important therapeutic and experimental target, and multiple VEGF/VEGFR2 pathway inhibitors have been developed to suppress pathological angiogenesis in cancer and other vascular disorders[1].

  • HY-10201
    Sorafenib
    Inhibitor 99.85%
    Sorafenib (Bay 43-9006) is a potent oral active multikinase inhibitor. Sorafenib blocks autophosphorylation and activity of receptor tyrosine kinases (VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3) and RAF family kinases, thereby suppressing the RAF/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways, inhibiting STAT3 phosphorylation, and selectively inhibiting the MAPK pathway in cancer cells. Sorafenib induces cell cycle arrest, autophagy, apoptosis, and PARP cleavage, reduces Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, cyclin D1 levels, and activates Bak and Bax. Sorafenib inhibits tumor growth and metastasis in mouse and rat models. Sorafenib can be used for cancer research, such as colon, breast, non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), ovarian, pancreatic, melanoma, colorectal and hepatocellular carcinoma.
