Lung cancer has the highest mortality rates worldwide. The disease is caused by environmental pollutants, smoking, and many other factors. Recent treatments include immunotherapeutics, which have shown some success; however, the search for new therapeutics is ongoing.

Background: The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family of ligands exerts their cellular effects by binding to α- and β-tyrosine kinase receptors (PDGFRα and PDGFRβ, respectively). SUMOylation is an important posttranslational modification (PTM) which regulates protein stability, localization, activation and protein interactions. A mass spectrometry screen has demonstrated SUMOylation of PDGFRα.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with a poor prognosis and the absence of targeted therapy. c-Kit, a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), is considered a molecular target for anticancer drugs. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) recognizing c-Kit are used for the treatment of c-Kit-expressing tumors.

Breast cancer metastases to the bone can lead to a series of bone-related events that seriously affect the quality of life. Pexmetinib, a novel p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38) inhibitor that has been evaluated in phase I clinical trials for myelodysplastic syndrome, but the effects of Pexmetinib on breast cancer induced osteolysis haven't been explored. Here, we found that Pexmetinib inhibited receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand-induced osteoclast formation and bone resorption .

Signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat)3 is a valid anticancer therapeutic target. We have discovered a highly potent chemotype that amplifies the Stat3-inhibitory activity of lead compounds to levels previously unseen. The azetidine-based compounds, including H172 (9f) and H182, irreversibly bind to Stat3 and selectively inhibit Stat3 activity (IC 0.
