Effect of CHK1 Inhibition on CPX-351 Cytotoxicity in vitro and ex vivo
59 views | Jun 10 2019
Vincelette ND et al. showed that CHK1 inhibition increases the antiproliferative effect of CPX-351 on primary AML specimens ex vivo, offering the possibility that CPX-351 may be well suited to combine with CHK1-targeted agents. [Read the Full Post]
Chk1 inhibitor SCH 900776 enhances the antitumor activity of MLN4924 on pancreatic cancer
109 views | May 28 2019
Li JA et al. provided the preclinical evidence and the rationale of the combination therapy of MLN4924 with SCH 900776 or other Chk1 inhibitors to treat PC. [Read the Full Post]
The Chk1 inhibitor MK-8776 increases the radiosensitivity of human triple-negative breast cancer by inhibiting autophagy
131 views | May 09 2019
Zhou ZR et al. suggested that MK-8776increases human TNBC radiosensitivity by inhibiting irradiation-induced autophagy and that MK-8776 may be a potential agent in the radiosensitization of human TNBC. [Read the Full Post]
Inhibition of Chk1 with the small molecule inhibitor V158411 induces DNA damage and cell death in an unperturbed S-phase
240 views | Dec 21 2018
Wayne J et al. identified two distinct classes of Chk1 inhibitors: those that induced a strong increase in γH2AX, pChk1 (S317) and pRPA32 (S4/S8) (including V158411, LY2603618 and ARRY-1A) and those that did not (including MK-8776 and GNE-900). [Read the Full Post]
Activation of the Chicken Anemia Virus Apoptin Protein by Chk1/2 Phosphorylation Is Required for Apoptotic Activity and Efficient Viral Replication
517 views | May 13 2018
Kucharski TJ et al. determined that checkpoint kinase 1 and 2 signaling is important for apoptin regulation and is a likely feature of both tumor cells and host cells producing virus progeny. Inhibition of checkpoint signaling prevents apoptin toxicity in tumor cells and attenuates CAV replication, suggesting it may be a future target for antiviral therapy. [Read the Full Post]
P53-dependent upregulation of neutral sphingomyelinase-2: role in doxorubicin-induced growth arrest
536 views | Apr 18 2018
Shamseddine AA et al. identifyd nSMase2 as a novel p53 target gene, regulated by the DNA damage pathway to induce cell growth arrest. [Read the Full Post]
The Chk1 inhibitor MK-8776 increases the radiosensitivity of human triple-negative breast cancer by inhibiting autophagy
755 views | Dec 11 2017
Zhou ZR et al. suggested that MK-8776 increases human TNBC radiosensitivity by inhibiting irradiation-induced autophagy and that MK-8776 may be a potential agent in the radiosensitization of human TNBC. [Read the Full Post]
Mutations of the LIM protein AJUBA mediate sensitivity of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma to treatment with cell-cycle inhibitors
676 views | Nov 07 2017
Zhang M et al. identified AJUBA, SMAD4 and RAS mutations as potential candidate biomarkers of response of HNSCC to treatment with these mitotic inhibitors. [Read the Full Post]
Checkpoint kinase inhibitor AZD7762 strongly sensitises urothelial carcinoma cells to gemcitabine
0 views | Nov 06 2017
Isono M et al. showed that AZD7762 enhanced sensitivity of urothelial carcinoma cells to gemcitabine by inhibiting DNA repair and disturbing checkpoints. Combining gemcitabine with CHK1 inhibition holds promise for urothelial cancer therapy. [Read the Full Post]
Expression and clinical significance of Wee1 in colorectal cancer
1412 views | Nov 16 2016
The lack of clinical significance of Wee1 expression could indicate that other tumor types might be better suited for further development of Wee1 inhibitors. [Read the Full Post]
