Article Synopsis
  • Metastasis is a complicated disease that relies on specific protein interactions, such as Vimentin and NEDD9, which are crucial for cancer progression and treatment resistance.
  • Withaferin A (WFA) is a natural compound thought to target Vimentin, potentially offering a way to inhibit metastasis, although its complete mechanism is still not clear.
  • Research has utilized various techniques, including gene expression analysis and protein interaction assays, to demonstrate that targeting the Vimentin-NEDD9 interaction with WFA can reduce melanoma spread to the lungs, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic approach.

VEGFR1 (Flt-1), is a high-affinity tyrosine kinase receptor of VEGF found primarily on vascular endothelial cells. Recently, Flt-1 has shown to be expressed in human monocytes. However, the key intracellular signaling pathway mediated by Flt-1 receptor has been yet to be identified in monocytes.

Mitogenicity is the ability of the natural or synthetic compounds to induce cell division or proliferation. A series of salicylic acid derivatives containing isoxazoline moiety (8a-j) were synthesized and their immunopharmacological activities targeting lymphocyte proliferation and angiogenesis were evaluated. The compounds 8a-j mitogenicity were investigated on immunological cells that include human peripheral blood lymphocytes and murine splenocytes in-vitro.
