GW-788,388 explained

GW 788388 is a synthetic compound which acts as a potent and selective inhibitor for TGF beta receptor 1.[1] It has applications in research into various disorders such as liver, kidney and heart disease (especially associated with Chagas disease),[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and potential antiviral properties.[8]
