MORF-627 is a selective integrin αvβ6 inhibitor that effectively impairs TGF-β1 activation and pSMAD2 signaling. This compound significantly decreases collagen deposition and markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition in fibrotic cells, demonstrating notable antifibrotic activity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis models without causing genotoxicity. While MORF-627 induces bladder epithelial proliferation and early invasive urothelial carcinoma in cynomolgus monkeys and human cells, these toxic effects can be mitigated by exogenous TGF-β. This reagent is valuable for investigating the pathological mechanisms underlying pulmonary fibrosis and assessing associated drug safety.
