AZA1 is a Potent Dual Inhibitor of Rac1 and Cdc42
Prostate cancer is the leading cause of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in men. Rho GTPases such as Rac, Cdc42, and RhoA are signaling proteins. They…

Rho-GTPases are molecular switches that cycle between an inactive GDP-bound form and an active GTP-bound form. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) catalyze nucleotide exchange and mediate activation in this cycle,…
Treatment of hematopoietic (HP) malignancies such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma need improvement due to the drug high toxicity. Some effective anticancer agents are tissue-selective but not cancer-specific targets. These…
The activation of FMS like receptor tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is a cytokine receptor that belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase class III. Specifically, FLT3 signaling is important for the…
The MYC family of oncogenes (MYC, MYCN, and MYCL), encodes basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLHZip) transcription factors. Through the HLHZip domain, MYC heterodimerizes with the bHLHZip protein MAX, which enables…
Multiple myeloma represents a heterogeneous disease with various oncogenic mutations, chromosomal translocations, and copy number variations. The mitotic kinase T-LAK cell‐originated protein kinase/PDZ‐binding kinase ( TOPK/PBK) associates with the proliferation…
Histone acetyltransferase (HATS) is an enzyme that acetylates the conserved lysine amino acids in histones by transferring acetyl from acetyl coenzyme A toε-N-acetyllysine. Several chromatin modifiers are responsible for adding…
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a squamous cell carcinoma arising from the epithelium lining of the posterior nasopharynx. In a word, NPC causes very serious health problems in these areas. NPC…
Various cancers show elevated levels of TACC3, including prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. TACC3 is a TACC family member. It plays critical roles…
Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is crucial for normal prostate development. It also drives the growth and survival of prostate cancer cells. AR signaling suppression is a common strategy for treating…
