Brusatol induces ferroptosis to inhibit hepatocellular carcinoma progression by targeting ATF3

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

Using RNA-seq and through in vitro and in vivo studies, we determined that brusatol suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma progression by inducing ATF3-mediated ferroptosis. Therefore, our research revealed the biological effect of brusatol treatment and provided ATF3 as a novel therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for HCC therapy.

Identification of a 2?phenylthiazole derivative acetylcholinesterase modulator with in vitro antitumor activity in breast cancer cells

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

To clarify how A6 affected on MCF-7 cells, RNA-seq analysis was conducted to evaluate the whole genome effect of A6 on gene expression. Moreover, bioinformatic analysis and cell viability test showed A6 plays anticancer role by regulating Best1 and HIST1H2BJ. In addition, A6 induced apoptosis of MCF-7 cells.

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) in Clinical Trials: Challenges and Opportunities

Vial

In 2017, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first gene therapy for cancer and for inherited diseases, the first multiplex NGS panel for companion diagnostics (CDx), and the first drug targeting a genetic signature though not a disease. Fountzilas et al. Satam et al.

Leveraging ADCs in precision oncology strategy

Drug Target Review

What role do ADCs play in Caris’ strategy for targeted cancer therapy, particularly in terms of patient-specific treatment plans? Patient specific treatment plans can be tailored to the cohorts that express the targets including feasibility assessment of combinations of our ADC targets with other lines of therapy.

Scientific workflow for hypothesis testing in drug discovery: Part 1

Drug Target Review

This includes verifying the experimental design and understanding how the data was generated whether it was from RNA sequencing, mass spectrometry, or other biological assays. Figure 1: High-level workflow for early drug discovery Once the raw data has been gathered, the next step is to gain a thorough understanding of the data.

Monkey Embryos Grow to 25 Days — No Womb Required

Codon

Made from a Cas9 nickase (the histidine at amino acid position 840 is swapped for an alanine) fused to a reverse transcriptase enzyme (which makes DNA from RNA; transcription in reverse), prime editing clinical trials are expected to begin by 2025. link ) INSPECTR is a diagnostic tool to detect tiny amounts of viral RNA at room temperature.
