The Novel Diketopiperazine Derivative, Compound 5-3, Selectively Inhibited the Proliferation of FLT3-ITD Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Cells

open access: yesMarine Drugs
The internal tandem duplication mutation of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3-ITD) is associated with high recurrence and mortality rates in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), making it a critical target for anti-AML therapies.

Anticancer Activity of Chamaejasmine: Effect on Tubulin Protein

open access: yesMolecules, 2011
In this work, the anticancer activity of chamaejasmine was studied by evaluating its in vitro cytotoxicity against several human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, A549, SGC-7901, HCT-8, HO-4980, Hela, HepG2, PC-3, LNCap, Vero and MDCK) using the MTT assay ...

Design, synthesis and evaluation of dihydro-1H-indene derivatives as novel tubulin polymerisation inhibitors with anti-angiogenic and antitumor potency

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2023
Angiogenesis plays an important role in tumour generation and progression, which is used to supply nutrients and metastasis. Herein, a series of novel dihydro-1H-indene derivatives were designed and evaluated as tubulin polymerisation inhibitors by ...

MAPping out distribution routes for kinesin couriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the crowded environment of eukaryotic cells, diffusion is an inefficient distribution mechanism for cellular components. Long-distance active transport is required and is performed by molecular motors including kinesins.

Sulfhydryls of tubulin [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2000
The 20 cysteine residues of tubulin are heterogeneously distributed throughout its three‐dimensional structure. In the present work, we have used the reactivity of these cysteine residues with 5,5′‐dithiobis(2‐nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) as a probe to detect the global conformational changes of tubulin under different experimental conditions.

Functional genomics identifies five distinct molecular subtypes with clinical relevance and pathways for growth control in epithelial ovarian cancer

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2013
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is hallmarked by a high degree of heterogeneity. To address this heterogeneity, a classification scheme was developed based on gene expression patterns of 1538 tumours. Five, biologically distinct subgroups — Epi‐A, Epi‐B,

GSK3 as a Regulator of Cytoskeleton Architecture: Consequences for Health and Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) was initially isolated as a critical protein in energy metabolism. However, subsequent studies indicate that GSK-3 is a multi-tasking kinase that links numerous signaling pathways in a cell and plays a vital role in the ...

Formation and Function of the Rbl2p-beta-Tubulin Complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The yeast protein Rbl2p suppresses the deleterious effects of excess beta-tubulin as efficiently as does alpha-tubulin. Both in vivo and in vitro, Rbl2p forms a complex with beta-tubulin that does not contain alpha-tubulin, thus defining a second pool of

Growth and shortening of microtubules: a two-state model approach

open access: yes, 2011
In this study, a two-state mechanochemical model is presented to describe the dynamic instability of microtubules (MTs) in cells. The MTs switches between two states, assembly state and disassembly state. In assembly state, the growth of MTs includes two

ERBIN limits epithelial cell plasticity via suppression of TGF‐β signaling

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In breast and lung cancer patients, low ERBIN expression correlates with poor clinical outcomes. Here, we show that ERBIN inhibits TGF‐β‐induced epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in NMuMG breast and A549 lung adenocarcinoma cell lines. ERBIN suppresses TGF‐β/SMAD signaling and reduces TGF‐β‐induced ERK phosphorylation.
