Cancer Stem Cells
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are populations of cancer cells that have the properties of stem cells i.e. self-renewal and ability to generate differentiated progenies. CSCs have high plasticity, which changes their phenotypic and functional appearance. They have important roles in tumor development, expansion, resistance, relapse and metastasis. Multiple studies have shown that CSCs originate from non-malignant stem or progenitor cells. Inhibition of developmental signaling pathways that are critical for stem and progenitor cell homeostasis and function has important implications in strategies to target CSCs in cancer research.
Studies have shown that CSCs develop several mechanisms to protect themselves from toxins and genotoxic stress, including enhanced DNA damage repair capacity, increased expression of drug transporters, maintenance of a low reactive oxygen species (ROS) environment, and recruitment of a protective niche. Therefore, targeting signaling pathways that are required to maintain stem cells is the current therapeutic strategy for CSCs. For example, hedgehog pathway, Notch and Wnt signaling pathways.
Newly developed drugs targeting surface markers of CSCs opens the new avenues for cancer therapy, such as CD44, CD133, EpCAM, Sox2, and Oct-3/4.

Omzirafenib
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-111940CAS No.: 2274819-46-2Synonyms: LUT014Omzirafenib (LUT014) is a topical inhibitor targeting BRAF that cannot pass through the blood-brain barrier. Omzirafenib inhibits BRAF kinase and abnormally activates the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway, promoting the proliferation of epidermal keratinocytes, repairing skin barrier damage caused by radiation damage, and alleviating inflammatory responses. Omzirafenib is independent of RAS signaling and accelerates the repair and regeneration of damaged skin cells. Omzirafenib can be used to study radiation dermatitis, especially skin damage caused by breast cancer radiotherapy.

Molibresib besylate
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-13032BCAS No.: 1895049-20-3Synonyms: GSK 525762C; I-BET 762 besylateMolibresib besylate (GSK 525762C; I-BET 762 besylate) is an orally active pan-BET inhibitor that targets and binds to BRD2, BRD3, BRD4 and BRDT. By competitively occupying acetylated lysine binding sites, Molibresib besylate disrupts the interaction between BET proteins and chromatin, thereby effectively inhibiting MYC expression and target gene transcription. Molibresib besylate exhibits broad antiproliferative activity, which not only inhibits cancer cell growth and induces growth arrest, but also downregulates mitosis-related genes and upregulates the level of p-ERK1/2. When combined with MEK inhibitors, Molibresib besylate shows a significant synergistic effect, reduces tumor burden in mouse models of leukemia, modulates the immune microenvironment and prolongs survival. Molibresib besylate is widely applicable to research related to acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, triple-negative breast cancer, small-cell lung cancer and various advanced refractory solid tumors.
