Research progress and development strategy of PI3K inhibitors for breast cancer treatment: A review (2016-present).

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are widely expressed in tissues and cells throughout the body and are involved in a variety of physiological processes including cell growth and metabolism. The phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway (PI3K/AKT/mTOR, PAM) is a promising target for the treatment of many cancer types because it is significantly linked to tumorigenesis and development. Aberrant activation of this pathway is observed in the majority of tumors, particularly in breast cancer.

Coordination-Driven Self-Assembly of Metal Ion-Antisense Oligonucleotide Nanohybrids for Chronic Bacterial Infection Therapy.

Bacterial infection poses a significant challenge to wound healing and skin regeneration, leading to substantial economic burdens on patients and society. Therefore, it is crucial to promptly explore and develop effective methodologies for bacterial infections. Herein, we propose a novel approach for synthesizing nanostructures based on antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) through the coordination-driven self-assembly of Zn with ASO molecules.

Photothermally Enhanced Cascaded Nanozyme-Functionalized Black Phosphorus Nanosheets for Targeted Treatment of Infected Diabetic Wounds.

Due to the limitations of H O under physiological conditions and defective activity, nanozyme-catalyzed therapy for infected diabetic wound healing is still a huge challenge. Here, this work designs a novel multifunctional hybrid glucose oxidase (GOx)-CeO @black phosphorus (BP)/Apt nanosheet that features GOx and CeO dual enzyme loading with photothermal enhancement effect and targeting ability for the treatment of infected wounds in type II diabetic mice. Combined with the photothermal properties of the BP nanosheets, the cascade nanozyme effect of GOx and CeO is extremely enhanced.

Discovery of novel potent PI3K/mTOR dual-target inhibitors based on scaffold hopping: Design, synthesis, and antiproliferative activity.

The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is one of the most common dysregulated signaling cascade responses in human cancers, playing a crucial role in cell proliferation and angiogenesis. Therefore, the development of anticancer drugs targeting the PI3K and mTOR pathways has become a research hotspot in cancer treatment. In this study, the PI3K selective inhibitor GDC-0941 was selected as a lead compound, and 28 thiophenyl-triazine derivatives with aromatic urea structures were synthesized based on scaffold hopping, serving as a novel class of PI3K/mTOR dual inhibitors.
