A Novel Therapeutic Strategy for the Treatment of Glioma, Combining Chemical and Molecular Targeting of Hsp90a [PDF]

, 2011
Hsp90α's vital role in tumour survival and progression, together with its highly inducible expression profile in gliomas and its absence in normal tissue and cell lines validates it as a therapeutic target for glioma.

Gasdermins: multifunctional effectors of membrane permeabilization across cellular compartments

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 22, Page 5899-5920, November 2025.
Gasdermins (GSDMs) are pore‐forming proteins best known for driving pyroptosis through plasma membrane (PM) permeabilization. Beyond triggering inflammatory cell death, GSDMs can also associate with organelle membranes, including mitochondria, lysosomes, ER, and nucleus, where they modulate membrane integrity and cellular signaling.

The Hsp90β Isoform: An Attractive Target for Drug Development

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 5, Page 1452-1465, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The beta isoform of 90 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp90β) plays a critical role in maintaining cellular proteostasis by assisting in the folding and refolding of proteins, which is essential for both normal cellular function and stress response.

A phosphorylation of RIPK3 kinase initiates an intracellular apoptotic pathway that promotes prostaglandin2α-induced corpus luteum regression

eLife, 2021
Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) normally signals to necroptosis by phosphorylating MLKL. We report here that when the cellular RIPK3 chaperone Hsp90/CDC37 level is low, RIPK3 also signals to apoptosis.

Antiangiogenic compounds: well-established drugs versus emerging natural molecules [PDF]

, 2018
Angiogenesis is the natural and physiologic process of growing blood vessels from pre-existing ones. Pathological angiogenesis occurs when the precise balance of all the molecular pathways that regulate angiogenesis is disrupted, and this process is a ...

Identification and Characterization of Harc, a Novel Hsp90-associating Relative of Cdc37 [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Although little is known about the precise mechanisms by which the molecular chaperone Hsp90 recognizes its client proteins, Cdc37 has been shown to play a critical role in the targeting of Hsp90 to client protein kinases. Described here is the identification and characterization of a novel 35-kDa human protein that is 31% identical to Cdc37.
