Bioactivity: Picropodophyllin (PPP) is a specific IGF-1R inhibitor (IC50: 1 nM). Picropodophyllin specifically inhibits the activity and downregulates the cellular expression of IGF1R without interfering with activities of other growth factor receptors, such as receptors for insulin, epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor and mast/stem cell growth factor (KIT).
