Background:

TX-1918 is a cell-permeable tyrphostin derivative that inhibits eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase (eEF-2K; IC50 = 440 nM). It inhibits Src, PKA, PKC, and EGFR kinases at much higher concentrations (IC50s = 4.4, 44, 44, and 440 uM, respectively). TX-1918 disrupts the proliferation of HepG2 and HCT116 tumor cells (EC50s = 2.07 and 230 uM, respectively) with >=5,000-fold and >=90-fold reduced mitochondrial- and hepato-toxicity, respectively when compared with the tyrphostin AG-17 [1]
