Fast in-vitro screening of FLT3-ITD inhibitors using silkworm-baculovirus protein expression system.
We report expression and purification of a FLT3 protein with ITD mutation (FLT3-ITD) with a steady tyrosine kinase activity using a silkworm-baculovirus system, and its application as a fast screening system of tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Since protein kinases have been found to be implicated in many diseases, first of all malignancies, they are considered as promising therapeutic targets. Many protein kinase inhibitors have been designed by now. These molecules have a low molecular weight and most of them bind to protein kinases competing with ATP for the ATP-binding site. Some protein

Bivalent inhibitors of protein kinases [PDF]
Protein kinases are key players in a large number of cellular signaling pathways. Dysregulated kinase activity has been implicated in a number of diseases, and members of this enzyme family are of therapeutic interest. However, due to the fact that most inhibitors interact with the highly conserved ATP-binding sites of kinases, it is a significant ...

Combinatorial strategy using protein kinase inhibitors and a cytotoxic compound for highly resistant glioblastoma cells : "in vitro studies" [PDF]
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent and the most aggesssive malignant neoplasm of the human central nervous system (CNS), with a median survival of less than one year. These neoplasms are radio- and chemo-resistant, and are highly invasive,

Role of protein kinase C in renal vasoconstriction caused by angiotensin II [PDF]
In this study we have examined the subcellar pathways along which angiotensin II (ANG II) causes renal vasoconstriction. Using the isolated perfused rat kidney model, we found that renal vasoconstriction produced by ANG II (100 pM) was not altered by the

On the origins of enzyme inhibitor selectivity and promiscuity: a case study of protein kinase binding to staurosporine [PDF]
Protein kinases are important regulatory enzymes in signal transduction and in cell regulation. Understanding inhibition mechanisms of kinases is important for the further development of new therapies for cancer and inflammatory diseases.
