Detection was carried out by multiple reaction monitoring mode using the transitions m/z 634.3→184.2 for golvatinib and m/z 650.3→200.2 for golvatinib N-oxide. Further study demonstrated that CYP3A4 was the principal enzyme involved in metabolizing golvatinib. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report combining ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem MS (UHPLC-MS/MS) with UHPLC-Quadrupole-Orbitrap-HRMS for profiling golvatinib metabolism in vitro, thereby laying a foundation for subsequent pharmacokinetic study.

Our results indicate that OA acts as a natural RON inhibitor to suppress breast cancer-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteolysis. This provides new strategy for treating breast cancer-induced bone destruction and related syndromes.

E7050 treatment also decreased the expression of CD31 and p-VEGFR2 in MES-SA/Dx5 tumor tissue sections in comparison with the vehicle control. Collectively, E7050 may serve as a potential agent for the treatment of cancer and angiogenesis-related disorders.
