MMRi62, a Ferroptosis Inducer Targeting MDM2-MDM4

MDM2 and MDM4 have established cancer drug targets. Additionally, they are also inhibitors of p53 activity and are amplified in many cancer types. In particular, the targeting of MDM2–p53 interactions is a novel strategy that is pursued to unleash the antitumor activity of p53. Furthermore,  there needs to cover...

Mitonafide is a Cytostatic Agent, Inhibiting DNA and RNA Synthesis

Cytostatic agents are cell components or drugs that inhibit cell division. Specifically, cell growth arrest is an important prerequisite for structured multicellular organisms. Cell inhibitors achieve these growth-inhibitory effects through specific mechanisms of action. Some cell inhibitors are not only used in cancer treatment, but also for other diseases...

Olutasidenib, a Brain-Penetrant Mutant IDH1 Selective Inhibitor For AML Research

On December 1, 2022, FDA approved Rezlidhea (Olutasidenib) to treat adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a susceptible (IDH1) mutation. Olutasidenib (FT2102) is a highly potent, orally active, brain-penetrant, and selective inhibitor of mutant Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1). As a result, The IC50 values are...

JS25, a Selective and Covalent BTK Inhibitor, Acts by Segregating Tyr551

BTK, Bruton’s tyrosine kinase, belongs to the cytoplasmatic kinases TEC subfamily. BTK involves in immune regulation, and is activated by Src kinases. Then BTK leads to phospholipase-Cγ (PLCγ) phosphorylation, Ca2+ mobilization, and NF-κB/MAP activation. Meanwhile, BTK increases proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-10 production and controls integrin-mediated B-cells adhesion. Moreover,...
