UK122 is a highly effective and specific inhibitor of urokinase-typeplasminogen activator (uPA) with an IC50 value of 0.2 μM. It displays negligible to minimal inhibition towards tissue-typeplasminogen activator (tPA), plasmin, thrombin, and trypsin (all IC50 >100 μM). Functioning as a 4-oxazolidinone analogue, UK122 is an anticancer agent that effectively inhibits cancer cell migration and invasion.
UK-356,202 is a potent and selective urokinase-typeplasminogen activator (Ki = 37 nM). Urokinaseplasminogen activator (uPA, urokinase) is a trypsinlike serine protease and a therapeutical target for many cancer types, including breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer. uPA is a valuable oncology target.
