BIIB021: A novel inhibitor to heat shock protein 90–addicted oncology

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Heat shock protein 90 is induced in response to the cell stress. Its overexpression has been reported in many cancers with poor prognosis. It acts as a chaperone to the client proteins, especially the activated oncoproteins in malignancies to protect ...

Heat shock protein 90 inhibition: rationale and clinical potential

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 2012
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone protein essential for cellular survival. Functionally, HSPs promote proper protein folding, prevent misfolding, and restore three-dimensional protein structure which is critical following toxic ...

Heat Shock Protein 90: The Cancer Chaperone

open access: yesJournal of Biosciences, 2007
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a molecular chaperone required for the stability and function of a number of conditionally activated and/or expressed signalling proteins, as well as multiple mutated, chimeric, and/or over-expressed signalling proteins, that promote cancer cell growth and/or survival.

Impact of Heat-Shock Protein 90 on Cancer Metastasis [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Oncology, 2009
Cancer metastasis is the result of complex processes, including alteration of cell adhesion/motility in the microenvironment and neoangiogenesis, that are necessary to support cancer growth in tissues distant from the primary tumor. The molecular chaperone heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90), also termed the 'cancer chaperone', plays a crucial role in ...

Effect of EPA on Hsp90 and GRα protein expression in multiple myeloma drug-resistant cells

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2021
Background Approximately 20% of MM patients harbor glucocorticoid (GC) resistance and are not responsive to therapeutic effect. Chaperoneheat-shock proteins Hsp90 is needed for ligand docking, The imbalance of Hsp90/GRα (glucocorticoid receptor α) may be

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

CUL-6/cullin ubiquitin ligase-mediated degradation of HSP-90 by intestinal lysosomes promotes thermotolerance

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Heat shock can be a lethal stressor. Previously, we described a CUL-6/cullin-ring ubiquitin ligase complex in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that is induced by intracellular intestinal infection and proteotoxic stress and that promotes ...

Trans-spliced heat shock protein 90 modulates encystation in Giardia lamblia.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BackgroundHsp90 from Giardia lamblia is expressed by splicing of two independently transcribed RNA molecules, coded by genes named HspN and HspC located 777 kb apart.

ZW4864‐mediated inhibition of the β‐catenin/BCL9/BCL9L complex reveals therapeutic potential in bladder cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
BCL9 and BCL9L drive bladder cancer progression by enhancing β‐catenin signaling, promoting proliferation, migration, invasion, and organoid growth. Genetic depletion of BCL9(L) suppresses malignant phenotypes, while pharmacological disruption of the β‐catenin/BCL9(L) complex with ZW4864 inhibits canonical Wnt signaling and tumor‐associated cellular ...

Temperature stress response of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) in the clam Paphia undulata

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries, 2018
The Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a group of molecular chaperones that play a crucial role in cell response to various stresses. A full-length cDNA of the heat shock protein 90 (PuHsp90) was cloned and sequenced from the clam Paphia undulata ...
