43 views | Oct 29 2023

A computational model of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis trigger factor protein was developed and two potential inhibitors, HTS02984 and S06856, were identified through virtual screening, offering potential avenues for the development of tuberculosis therapies. [Read the Full Post]

Tryptophan metabolism induced by TDO2 promotes prostatic cancer chemotherapy resistance in a AhR/c-Myc dependent manner

111 views | Oct 25 2023

Elevated expression of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (TDO2) promotes tryptophan metabolism and kynurenine production, activating the AhR/c-Myc/ABC-SLC transporters signaling pathway and contributing to chemoresistance in prostatic cancer. [Read the Full Post]

Degradation of MYC by the mutant p53 reactivator drug, COTI-2 in breast cancer cells

62 views | Sep 08 2023

The study demonstrated that the mutant p53 reactivating drug COTI-2 effectively degraded MYC protein and showed synergistic growth inhibition when combined with an MYC inhibitor, suggesting its potential as a broad-spectrum anticancer therapy. [Read the Full Post]

RUNX1 isoform disequilibrium promotes the development of trisomy 21-associated myeloid leukemia

41 views | Sep 07 2023

The study proposes that an imbalance of RUNX1 isoforms, particularly elevated expression of RUNX1A, in combination with the Gata1s mutation, contributes to the development of myeloid leukemia associated with Down syndrome (ML-DS), and restoring the equilibrium between RUNX1A and RUNX1C holds potential for targeted therapies.
