Pimasertib, also known as AS703026 (Cat No.:I000947), is a selective inhibitor of MEK1 and MEK2, which are kinases involved in the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. By inhibiting MEK1/2, pimasertib blocks the activation of downstream kinases, including ERK1/2. This pathway plays a crucial role in cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. Pimasertib has shown potential as an anticancer agent, particularly in the treatment of melanoma. It interferes with the aberrant MAPK/ERK signaling that is often dysregulated in cancer cells, leading to reduced tumor growth and proliferation. Pimasertib represents a promising targeted therapy for certain types of cancers that rely on MAPK/ERK pathway activation.
