Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Background Simultaneous blockade of the anti‐apoptotic proteins BCL‐2 and BCL‐XL has been shown to be efficacious in preclinical and clinical trials for tumors that are co‐dependent on their survival pathways, although clinical development has been ...

Bcl-2 protein expression is associated with p27 and p53 protein expressions and MIB-1 counts in breast cancer [PDF]
Background Recent experimental studies have shown that Bcl-2, which has been established as a key player in the control of apoptosis, plays a role in regulating the cell cycle and proliferation.

Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) reduces growth of HPV‐positive cervical cancer spheroids and induces ferroptosis in cervical cancer cells via blocking SLC7A11/Glutathione (GSH) axis. Combination of subcytotoxic doses of DMF and cisplatin (CDDP) further suppresses spheroid growth and drives cell death in 2D culture models.

A surface groove essential for viral bcl-2 function during chronic infection in vivo. [PDF]
Antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins inhibit apoptosis in cultured cells by binding BH3 domains of proapoptotic Bcl-2 family members via a hydrophobic BH3 binding groove on the protein surface.

Combinatorial BCL2/BCL2L1 expression predicts clinical response to ruxolitinib in myelofibrosis
Myelofibrosis is characterized by aberrant JAK/STAT signaling, with approved therapy including the JAK inhibitor ruxolitinib. Preclinical evidence implicates BCL-2 family proteins in MF pathogenesis and therapeutic response.

The secrets of the Bcl-2 family [PDF]
The Bcl-2 family of proteins is formed by pro- and antiapoptotic members. Together they regulate the permeabilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane, a key step in apoptosis. Their complex network of interactions both in the cytosol and on mitochondria determines the fate of the cell.

E2A selectively regulates TGF‐β–induced apoptosis in KRAS‐mutant non‐small cell lung cancer
Ability to induce apoptosis by TGF‐β is frequently lost in advanced lung adenocarcinoma despite intact TGF‐β signaling. We identify E2A as a mutant KRAS–dependent mediator of resistance to TGF‐β–induced apoptosis. TGF‐β induces E2A via SMAD3 in mutant KRAS cells, and E2A silencing restores apoptosis and enhances radiation response in cell lines ...
