Recent developments in the treatment of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm
15 views | Oct 06 2019
Future directions in therapy approaches for patients with BPDCN will include the development of other CD123-targeted agents, agents targeting beyond CD123 and investigation of rational combination approaches of CD123-directed therapy with other therapies. [Read the Full Post]
ABT-737 potentiates cisplatin-induced apoptosis in human osteosarcoma cells via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway
44 views | Sep 22 2019
Zhang F et al. demonstrated that ABT-737 alone has a nominal influence on human U-2OS cells when treated within the clinically administered range, but when combined with DDP, it can inhibit the proliferation of human U-2OS cells by inducing apoptosis via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.

An in vitro assay for biomarker discovery and dose prediction applied to ibrutinib plus venetoclax treatment of CLL
6 views | Sep 06 2019
Skånland SS et al. suggested that phospho flow should be considered as a novel approach for dose and synergy prediction in a precision medicine setting for CLL. [Read the Full Post]
Fenretinide via NOXA induction, enhanced activity of the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax in high BCL-2-expressing neuroblastoma preclinical models
26 views | Sep 06 2019
Reynolds CP et al. found that fenretinide + ventoclax is a synergistic combination that warrants clinical testing in high BCL-2 expressing neuroblastoma. [Read the Full Post]
XPO1 inhibitor KPT-330 synergizes with Bcl-xL inhibitor to induce cancer cell apoptosis by perturbing rRNA processing and Mcl-1 protein synthesis
29 views | Aug 28 2019
Zhu ZC et al. clarify the reason of apoptosis resistance of cancer cells to XPO1 inhibition and develop a potential strategy for treating solid tumors. [Read the Full Post]
Inhibition of Bcl-2/xl With ABT-263 Selectively Kills Senescent Type II Pneumocytes and Reverses Persistent Pulmonary Fibrosis Induced by Ionizing Radiation in Mice
42 views | Jul 16 2019
Pan J et al. demonstrated that PF can be reversed by a senolytic drug such as ABT-263 after it becomes a progressive disease. Therefore, ABT-263 has the potential to be developed as a new treatment for PF. [Read the Full Post]
Identification of a novel senolytic agent, navitoclax, targeting the Bcl-2 family of anti-apoptotic factors
44 views | Jul 15 2019
Zhu Y et al. showed the hypothesis-driven, bioinformatics-based approach we used to discover that dasatinib (D) and quercetin (Q) are senolytic can be extended to increase the repertoire of senolytic drugs, including additional cell type-specific senolytic agents. [Read the Full Post]
Therapeutics targeting Bcl-2 in hematological malignancies
52 views | Jul 12 2019
Ruefli-Brasse A et al. review recent progress in direct and selective targeting of Bcl-2 family proteins for cancer therapy and the search for rationale combinations. [Read the Full Post]
Flavopiridol enhances ABT-199 sensitivity in unfavourable-risk multiple myeloma cells in vitro and in vivo
53 views | Jul 12 2019
Zhou L et al. argue that CDK9 inhibitors, for example, FP may increase the antimyeloma activity of ABT-199, including in unfavourable-risk MM minimally responsive to ABT-199 alone. [Read the Full Post]
Direct Activation of BAX by BTSA1 Overcomes Apoptosis Resistance in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
59 views | Jun 24 2019
Reyna DE et al. provides proof-of-concept for direct BAX activation as a treatment strategy in AML. [Read the Full Post]
