Background:Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) plays a key role in cancer progression, including tumour proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. Recent studies have shown that the FGFR4 selective inhibitor BLU-554 has clinical benefits on tumour regression in hepatocellular carcinoma patients. However, the effect of BLU-554 on gastric cancer remains unknown.
Methods:Changes in cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle, migration, and invasion capabilities of MKN-45 cells treated with FGFR4 selective inhibitors were detected by CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry, transwell assay, and wound healing assay, respectively. Western blotting was used to detect the effect of BLU-554 on the expression of FGFR4, FRS2α, and p-ERK1/2.
Results:As the concentration of the inhibitor increased, the survival rate of gastric cancer cells decreased, and the trend of BLU-554 was more obvious; a high dose of BLU-554 caused significant cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest as well as reduced cell invasion ability. The expression levels of FGFR4, FRS2α, and p-ERK1/2 were also significantly reduced when cells were treated with medium and high doses of BLU-554.
Conclusion:BLU-554 inhibited the mitogen-activated protein kinase (RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK) pathway by inhibiting FGFR4, ultimately impeding the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells and promoting cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.
