Antitubercular drugs for an old target: GSK693 as a promising InhA direct inhibitor

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, François Signorino-Gelo

Despite being one of the first antitubercular agents identified, isoniazid (INH) is still the most prescribed drug for prophylaxis and tuberculosis (TB) treatment and, together with rifampicin, the pillars of current chemotherapy. A high percentage of ison ...

Role of RIP4 in lung adenocarcinoma differentiation

Jawahar Kopparam

Various studies have attributed NF-kB activation to promote KRAS mediated non-small cell lung cancer progression. In order to identify key genes regulating NF-kB activation and cell survival in lung adenocarcinoma, a synthetic lethal partner screen for KRA ...

Protein ruthenation and DNA alkylation: chlorambucil-functionalized RAPTA complexes and their anticancer activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Christian Hartinger, Alexey Nazarov, Olivier Pierre Zava

Chemotherapeutics for the treatment of tumorigenic conditions that feature novel modes of action are highly sought after to overcome the limitations of current chemotherapies. Herein, we report the conjugation of the alkylating agent chlorambucil to the RA ...

Fluence plays a critical role on the subsequent distribution of chemotherapy and tumor growth delay in murine mesothelioma xenografts pre-treated by photodynamic therapy

Georges Wagnières, Jean Yannis Perentes

Background: The pre-conditioning of tumor vessels by low-dose photodynamic therapy (L-PDT) was shown to enhance the distribution of chemotherapy in different tumor types. However, how light dose affects drug distribution and tumor response is unknown. Here ...

Tumor Vessel Normalization by Chloroquine Independent of Autophagy

Freddy Radtke

Chloroquine (CQ) has been evaluated as an autophagy blocker for cancer treatment, but it is unknown if it acts solely by inhibiting cancer cell autophagy. We report that CQ reduced tumor growth but improved the tumor milieu. By normalizing tumor vessel str ...

Ligand substitutions between ruthenium-cymene compounds can control protein versus DNA targeting and anticancer activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ursula Röthlisberger, Wee Han Ang, Alexey Nazarov, Pablo Campomanes Ramos, Catherine Marie Amélie Clavel, Michael Groessl

Ruthenium compounds have become promising alternatives to platinum drugs by displaying specific activities against different cancers and favourable toxicity and clearance properties. Nonetheless, their molecular targeting and mechanism of action are poorly ...

In vivo anti-tumor activity of the organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene complex [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene)-Cl-2(pta)] (RAPTA-C) in human ovarian and colorectal carcinomas

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Maxime Dubois

Based on the clinical success of platinum-based anti-cancer drugs such as cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin, a variety of other metal-based anti-cancer compounds are being investigated. In particular, a number of ruthenium-based compounds have been id ...

Natural compounds boldine and menthol are antagonists of human 5-HT

Rudolf Hovius

Background Impaired 5-HT3 receptor function is likely involved in the pathogenesis of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) and 5-HT3 receptor antagonists are effective treatments for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) and irritable bow ...

Rational design of organic and organometallic thermoresponsive or tumor-selective anticancer drugs and their in vitro and in vivo biological evaluation

Catherine Marie Amélie Clavel

Conventional chemotherapy leads to severe side-effects such as nephrotoxicity, nausea and vomiting and fatigue along with drug resistance. Alkylating agents used to treat cancer were even shown to provoke second cancers, often years after the end of chemot ...
