Acetylcholinesterase - glucose-regulated protein 78 binding site prediction, a hope to cure neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.

Cerebral amyloid plaques in the brain define the elderly neuralgic disorder, Alzheimer's disease (AD). The enzyme Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was reported to play a vital role in AD. It was shown that AChE induces amyloid fibril formation forming highly toxic AChE-Amyloid-β (Aβ) complexes.

Identification of ALDH1A3 as a Viable Therapeutic Target in Breast Cancer Metastasis-Initiating Cells.

The development of efficacious therapies targeting metastatic spread of breast cancer to the brain represents an unmet clinical need. Accordingly, an improved understanding of the molecular underpinnings of central nervous system spread and progression of breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) is required. In this study, the clinical burden of disease in BCBM was investigated, as well as the role of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A3 (ALDH1A3) in the metastatic cascade leading to BCBM development.

Intratumoral spatial heterogeneity of BTK kinomic activity dictates distinct therapeutic response within a single glioblastoma tumor.

Objective: Despite significant recent efforts applied toward the development of efficacious therapies for glioblastoma (GBM) through exploration of GBM's genome and transcriptome, curative therapeutic strategies remain highly elusive. As such, novel and effective therapeutics are urgently required. In this study, the authors sought to explore the kinomic landscape of GBM from a previously underutilized approach (i.

RCC2 promotes proliferation and radio-resistance in glioblastoma via activating transcription of DNMT1.

Regulator of chromosome condensation 2 (RCC2) is a regulator of cell-cycle progression linked in multiple cancers to pro-tumorigenic phenomena including promotion of tumor growth, tumor metastases and poorer patient prognoses. However, the role of RCC2 in GBM remains under-investigated. Here, we sought to determine the relevance of RCC2 in GBM, as well as its roles in GBM development, progression and prognosis.
