Sunitinib
A tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
General information
Sunitinib is an indole derivate receptor protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It manifests antineoplastic and neuroprotective activities. Sunitinib also acts as a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor antagonist and an immunomodulator (ChEBI).

ACE2-GFP HEK293T cells; Calu-3 cells; Vero E6 cells; SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped particles | 6.26 | Inhibits SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus cell entry with IC50 of 10 μM in ACE2-GFP HEK293T cells. At 10 μM concentration the drug reduced virus-induced cytopathic effect in Vero E6 cells by ca. 30%. It might act through actin cytoskeleton metabolism disregulation. |
