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.

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.

Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a serious life-threatening vascular disease, and its ferroptosis/cuproptosis markers have not yet been characterized. This study was aiming to identify markers associated with ferroptosis/cuproptosis in AAA by bioinformatics analysis combined with machine learning models and to perform experimental validation.
Methods: This study used three scRNA-seq datasets from different mouse models and a human PBMC bulk RNA-seq dataset.

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.
