Mechanistic Elucidation of the Antitumor Properties of Withaferin A in Breast Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Research, 2014
Abstract Withaferin A (WFA) is a steroidal lactone with antitumor effects manifested at multiple levels that are mechanistically obscure. Using a phospho-kinase screening array, we discovered that WFA activated phosphorylation of the S6 kinase RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) in breast cancer cells.

Harnessing Phytochemicals for Brain Cancer Therapy: Insights Into Medulloblastoma and Glioblastoma Treatment

open access: yesPhytochemical Analysis, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 507-535, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary brain tumors are life‐threatening diseases. Glioblastoma is the most aggressive type with a poor prognosis. Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric brain tumor. While surgical treatments often result in recurrences owing to the complex nature of the tumor microenvironment, conventional treatments lower the quality of life of ...

Development and Structural Characterization of UTE‐156, a Covalent Inhibitor of the VCP/p97 AAA+ ATPase

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
The AAA+ ATPase Valosin‐containing protein (VCP/p97) regulates protein homeostasis by unfolding ubiquitinated substrates. Here, we describe UTE‐156, a novel irreversible covalent inhibitor that modifies Cys522 in the D2 ATPase motor domain. Although its pharmacochemical limitations preclude immediate therapeutic use, UTE‐156 serves as a valuable ...

Differential chemosensitization of P-glycoprotein overexpressing K562/Adr cells by withaferin A and Siamois polyphenols

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2010
Background Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in cancer treatment and is often the result of overexpression of the drug efflux protein, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), as a consequence of hyperactivation of NFκB, AP1 and Nrf2 transcription factors. In

Withaferin A decreases glycolytic reprogramming in breast cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports
Reprogrammed glucose metabolism is considered as the hallmark of cancer with therapeutic implications. Phytocompounds have potential to inhibit cancer metabolism. Here, we tested the ability of Withaferin A (WA), a withanolide derived from Withania somnifera, in modulating cancer metabolism.
