GW788388 is a potent and selective inhibitor of ALK5 with IC₅₀ of 18 nM, and also inhibits TGF-β type II receptor and activin type II receptor activities, without inhibiting BMP type II receptor.

IC50: 18 nM (ALK5)

GW788388 given orally for 5 weeks significantly reduces renal fibrosis and decreased the mRNA levels of key mediators of extracellular matrix deposition in kidneys in db/db mice^[1]. GW788388 (50 mg/kg/day, p.o.) significantly attenuates systolic dysfunction in the MI animals, together with the attenuation of the activated (phosphorylated) Smad2 (P < 0.01), α-smooth muscle actin (P < 0.001), and collagen I (P < 0.05) in the noninfarct zone of MI rats^[2]. GW788388 reduces the expression of collagen IA1 by 80% at a dose of 1 mg/kg twice a day (b.i.d.). GW788388 significantly reduces the expression of collagen IA1 mRNA when administered orally at 10 mg/kg once a day (u.i.d.) in a model of puromycin aminonucleoside-induced renal fibrosis^[3].

One week postsurgery, sham-operated (N=6) and infarcted animals (N=10) are randomized to treatment with the ALK5 inhibitor GW788388 (GSK) at a dosage of 50 mg/kg/day by gavage, which has been shown to significantly attenuate collagen overexpression in a rodent model of dimethylnitrosamine-induced liver disease. Untreated rats, that is, sham-operated (N=9) and MI animals (N=15), are gavaged with vehicle (1% carboxymethyl cellulose solution). Four animals with < 25% infarct size as determined postmortem by histology are excluded from further analyses.
