International Cancer Microbiome Consortium consensus statement on the role of the human microbiome in carcinogenesis.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-09-01)
OBJECTIVE: In this consensus statement, an international panel of experts deliver their opinions on key questions regarding the contribution of the human microbiome to carcinogenesis. DESIGN: International experts in ...
Pharmacodynamic and Clinical Results from a Phase I/II Study of the HSP90 Inhibitor Onalespib in Combination with Abiraterone Acetate in Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-08-01)
PURPOSE: Onalespib is a potent, fragment-derived second-generation HSP90 inhibitor with preclinical activity in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CPRC) models. This phase I/II trial evaluated onalespib in combination ...
BRET-based RAS biosensors that show a novel small molecule is an inhibitor of RAS-effector protein-protein interactions.
(ELIFE SCIENCES PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2018-07-10)
The RAS family of proteins is amongst the most highly mutated in human cancers and has so far eluded drug therapy. Currently, much effort is being made to discover mutant RAS inhibitors and in vitro screening for RAS-binding ...
Small molecule inhibitors of RAS-effector protein interactions derived using an intracellular antibody fragment.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-08-09)
Targeting specific protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is an attractive concept for drug development, but hard to implement since intracellular antibodies do not penetrate cells and most small-molecule drugs are considered ...
Structural and functional characterization of a DARPin which inhibits Ras nucleotide exchange.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-14)
Ras mutations are the oncogenic drivers of many human cancers and yet there are still no approved Ras-targeted cancer therapies. Inhibition of Ras nucleotide exchange is a promising new approach but better understanding ...
KRAS-specific inhibition using a DARPin binding to a site in the allosteric lobe.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-06-13)
Inhibiting the RAS oncogenic protein has largely been through targeting the switch regions that interact with signalling effector proteins. Here, we report designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) macromolecules that ...
Lipid-mRNA Nanoparticle Designed to Enhance Intracellular Delivery Mediated by Shock Waves.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-03-20)
Cellular membranes are, in general, impermeable to macromolecules (herein referred to as macrodrugs, e.g., recombinant protein, expression plasmids, or mRNA), which is a major barrier for clinical translation of macrodrug-based ...
Structure-based development of new RAS-effector inhibitors from a combination of active and inactive RAS-binding compounds.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019-02-12)
The RAS gene family is frequently mutated in human cancers, and the quest for compounds that bind to mutant RAS remains a major goal, as it also does for inhibitors of protein-protein interactions. We have refined ...
Cloning, purification and structure determination of the HIV integrase-binding domain of lens epithelium-derived growth factor.
(INT UNION CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, 2018-03-01)
Lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF)/p75 is the dominant binding partner of HIV-1 integrase in human cells. The crystal structure of the HIV integrase-binding domain (IBD) of LEDGF has been determined in the absence ...
LINGO-1 is a New Therapy Target and Biomarker for Ewing Sarcoma.
(2017-01-05)
Ewing sarcoma is a predominantly paediatric cancer with a high rate of metastasis and reoccurrence. A new surface marker called LINGO-1 was recently identified on Ewing tumours as a potential target for antibody-mediated ...
