Off-Target Effects of MEK Inhibitors [PDF]
The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) ERK1/2 regulate numerous cellular processes, including gene transcription, proliferation, and differentiation. The only known substrates of the MAP2Ks MEK1/2 are ERK1/2; thus, MEK inhibitors PD98059, U0126, and PD0325901 have been important tools in determining the functions of ERK1/2.

Baricitinib and tofacitinib off-target profile, with a focus on Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Introduction: Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitors were recently identified as promising drug candidates for repurposing in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) due to their capacity to suppress inflammation via modulation of JAK/STAT signalling pathways.

Quantifying CRISPR off-target effects [PDF]
Abstract Recent advances in the era of genetic engineering have significantly improved our ability to make precise changes in the genomes of human cells. Throughout the years, clinical trials based on gene therapies have led to the cure of diseases such as X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1), adenosine deaminase ...

The CRISPR-Cas9 system has emerged as a powerful and efficient tool for genome editing. An important drawback of the CRISPR-Cas9 system is the constitutive endonuclease activity when Cas9 endonuclease and its sgRNA are co-expressed.

Background: Localized radiation therapy (RT) is known to infrequently cause off-target or “abscopal” effects at distant metastatic lesions. The mechanism through which abscopal effects occur remains unknown, but is thought to be caused by a humoral ...
