Suramin Sodium has been observed as a potent inhibitor of melanoma HPA (heparanase) and tumor cell metastasis. Inhibition of NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 with an IC50 of 2.6 ?M along with SIRT5 has also been observed. Suramin Sodium has been recorded to antagonize EDG-3 (S1P3) selectively. Suramin Sodium is an inhibitor of A cyclase, FGF-1, FGF-2, IL-1, IL-4, PDGF, PC-PLD, PKC, SH-PTP, TERT, TGF beta 1, Topo I, Topo II and VEGF. It is used as a G protein uncoupler and inhibitor of PDGF, EGF, TGF-β, SIRT1 and SIRT5. It also blocks calmodulin binding to recognition sites and G protein coupling to G protein-coupled receptors. Increases open probability of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels. Anticancer and antiviral agent.

General Description

• Suramin is a polysulphonated napthylurea which exhibits anti-parasitic and anticancer properties

• Suramin prevents endothelial cell migration and proliferation through inhibition of IGF-I, EGF, PDGF, and TGF-beta

• Suramin can also uncouple G-proteins from receptors and turn off cell signaling cascades

Application

• Suramin inhibits angiogenesis through blockade of bFGF and VEGF and can be useful for the laboratory study of blood vessel growth and renewal following injury

• Suramin inhibits DNA topoisomerases, and can be used as an antineoplastic agent in the laboratory study of cancer or for studies of microbial physiology
