Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Masitinib is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting c-Kit (IC50 200 nM), PDGFRα, and PDGFRβ, with weak activity against ABL and c-Fms. It inhibits intracellular KIT autophosphorylation and downstream oncogenic signaling pathways, suppressing cellular proliferation in cells expressing mutated KIT. In vivo, masitinib potently suppresses tumor growth in mouse xenograft models harboring juxtamembrane KIT mutations. [1]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
