Overcoming PARP Inhibitor and Platinum Resistance with WEE1 Inhibitors in Ovarian Cancer [PDF]
Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have transformed the treatment of high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), with demonstrated efficacy in the recurrent as well as newly diagnosed disease. However, women with EOC inevitably acquire resistance to both platinum chemotherapy and PARPi.

Combined Inhibition of ATR and WEE1 as a Novel Therapeutic Strategy in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer that poses a clinical challenge. Thus, new therapy strategies are urgently needed.

Background Wee1 kinase plays a critical role in maintaining G2 arrest through its inhibitory phosphorylation of cdc2. In previous reports, a pyridopyrimidine molecule PD0166285 was identified to inhibit Wee1 activity at nanomolar concentrations.

Discovery of potential WEE1 inhibitors via hybrid virtual screening
G2/M cell cycle checkpoint protein WEE1 kinase is a promising target for inhibiting tumor growth. Although various WEE1 inhibitors have entered clinical investigations, their therapeutic efficacy and safety profile remain unsatisfactory. In this study, we employed a comprehensive virtual screening workflow, which included Schrödinger-Glide molecular ...

Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 1 activity is a dynamic marker of treatment response in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer. Patient cohorts reveal CDK1 activity increases during progression to invasive disease, where high expression correlates with poor survival. Using a novel Cdk1 biosensor mouse alongside in vitro models, we demonstrate that CDK1

Gauchos and ochos: a Wee1-Cdk tango regulating mitotic entry
The kinase Wee1 has been recognized for a quarter century as a key inhibitor of Cyclin dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1) and mitotic entry in eukaryotes. Nonetheless, Wee1 regulation is not well understood and its large amino-terminal regulatory domain (NRD) has

BRCA1 mutation‐responsive FBOA‐tFNA selectively recognizes mutant transcripts and coordinates reduction‐responsive intracellular delivery of olaparib and adavosertib, amplifying DNA damage and weakening G2/M checkpoint protection. These effects are accompanied by STING‐associated immune activation and stronger antitumor immunity, while sequential anti ...

ARID1A, a component of the SWI/SNF tumor suppressor complex, is frequently mutated in colorectal cancers (CRC). Here, it is found that CRC with ARID1A/TP53 concurrent mutations is highly sensitive to WEE1 inhibitors.

Myt1 overexpression mediates resistance to cell cycle and DNA damage checkpoint kinase inhibitors
Cell cycle checkpoint kinases serve as important therapeutic targets for various cancers. When they are inhibited by small molecules, checkpoint abrogation can induce cell death or further sensitize cancer cells to other genotoxic therapies. Particularly
