Pim-1 kinase is a cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinase that controls programmed cell death by phosphorylating substrates that regulate both apoptosis and cellular metabolism. A series of 2-styrylquinolines and quinoline-2-carboxamides has been identified as potent inhibitors of the Pim-1 kinase. The 8-hydroxy-quinoline 7-carboxylic acid moiety appeared to be a crucial pharmacophore for activity. Molecular modeling indicated that interaction of this scaffold with Asp186 and Lys67 residues within the ATP-binding pocket might be responsible for the kinase inhibitory potency.

Background: The thromboxane A2 receptor (TPαR) plays an important role in the amplification of platelet responses during thrombosis. Receptor activity is regulated by internalization and receptor desensitization. The mechanism by which constitutive surface expression of the TPαR is regulated is unknown.

PIM1 instigates endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition to aggravate atherosclerosis.

Article Synopsis
  • Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is a process where endothelial cells transform into a different cell type, contributing to the dysfunction that initiates atherosclerosis, but the exact triggers in atherosclerotic environments are not well understood.
  • Research involving single-cell sequencing in mice on a high-fat diet showed that PIM1, a protein, is expressed in both endothelial cells and atherosclerotic lesions and plays a crucial role in the progression of atherosclerosis.
  • Knockdown of PIM1 in endothelial cells reduced atherosclerosis and EndMT by affecting key proteins and pathways associated with cell transformation, suggesting that targeting this pathway could be a potential therapeutic approach.

RBM family proteins plays the critical role in the progression of numerous tumors. However, whether RBM family proteins involved in prostate cancer (PCa) progression is remain elucidated. In our study, an RNAi screen containing shRNA library targeting 54 members of the RBM family was applied to identify the critical RBM proteins involved in prostate cancer progression under docetaxel treatment, and RBM19 was selected.

PIM-1 kinase, a member of the Serine/Threonine kinase family, has emerged as a promising therapeutic target in various cancers due to its role in promoting tumor growth and resistance to conventional therapies. In this study, we employed a structure-based approach to screen 3800 FDA-approved drugs to discover potential inhibitors of PIM-1. After an initial selection of 50 candidates based on high docking scores, four drugs, stanozolol, alfaxalone, rifaximin, and telmisartan, were identified as strong PIM-1 binders, interacting with key residues in the ATP-binding pocket of the kinase.
