Protein Kinase C: An Attractive Target for Cancer Therapy
Apoptosis plays an important role during all stages of carcinogenesis and the development of chemoresistance in tumor cells may be due to their selective defects in the intracellular signaling proteins, central to apoptotic pathways. Consequently, many studies have focused on rendering the chemotherapy more effective in order to prevent chemoresistance and pre-clinical and clinical data has sug...
متن کاملProtein kinase A type I: a target for cancer therapy.
The mechanism of action of the two isoforms of the PKA, defined PKAI and PKAII, respectively, has been the object of study for almost 25 years. However, only during the past decade, experimental evidences have started to confer distinct functions to PKAI and PKAII and have demonstrated that their intracellular balanced expression may play a critical role in the control of cell growth and differ...
متن کاملAngiopoietin-2: an attractive target for improved antiangiogenic tumor therapy.
Anti-VEGF pathway therapies primarily target immature blood vessels in tumors. However, emerging approaches to combine with targeted therapies impacting the later stages of remodeling and vessel maturation are expected to improve clinical efficacy by expanding the target vessel population. The angiopoietin/Tie ligand/receptor system is a prototypic regulator of vessel remodeling and maturation....
متن کاملThe IL-17-Th1/Th17 pathway: an attractive target for lung cancer therapy?
INTRODUCTION There is strong pharmaceutical development of agents targeting the IL-17-TH17 pathway for the treatment of psoriasis (Ps) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Lung cancer accounts for 28% of all cancer-related deaths worldwide, and roughly 80% of patients with newly-diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) present with metastatic disease, with a poor prognosis of around 12 months. Th...
متن کاملProtein kinase C as a therapeutic target.
The recognition of protein kinase C (PKC) as the long soughtafter receptor for the tumor-promoting phorbol esters established the potential role of PKC in carcinogenesis and as a potentially important target for cancer therapeutics (1, 2). PKC is a family of serine/threonine kinases that regulate a variety of cell functions including proliferation, gene expression, cell cycle, differentiation, ...
