Vimentin-IN-1 is a selective vimentin inhibitor that acts by binding to the type III intermediate filament protein, vimentin (VIM). This binding induces hyperphosphorylation at Ser56, leading to the selective disruption of mitosis and consequent multinucleation in vimentin-expressing mesenchymal cancer cells. Vimentin-IN-1 demonstrates improved oral bioavailability and favorable pharmacokinetic properties compared to its precursor, FiVe1, making it a valuable tool for cancer research applications focused on targeting vimentin-related pathways.
