The SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro, also known as 3CLpro) is a key target for antiviral therapy due to its critical role in viral replication and maturation. This study investigated the inhibitory effects of Bofutrelvir, Nirmatrelvir, and Selinexor on 3CLpro through molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and free energy calculations. Nirmatrelvir exhibited the strongest binding affinity across docking tools (AutoDock Vina: -8.

The management of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) refractory to hypomethylating agents (HMAs) remains a challenge with few reliably effective treatments. Preclinical studies have shown that the inhibition of the nuclear export protein XPO1 causes nuclear accumulation of p53 and disruption of NF-κB signaling; both of which are relevant targets for MDS. Selinexor is an XPO1 inhibitor with demonstrated efficacy in MDS patients.

Background: Selinexor is a selective inhibitor of exportin-1 (XPO1), a key mediator of the nucleocytoplasmic transport for molecules critical to tumor cell survival. Selinexor's lethality is generally associated with the induction of apoptosis, and in some cases, with autophagy-induced apoptosis. We performed this study to determine Selinexor's action in glioblastoma (GBM) cells, which are notoriously resistant to apoptosis.

In the last decades the survival of metastatic gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients could have been significantly extended due to the introduction of targeted- and immunotherapy. However, only the minority of patients will experience long-lasting survival. Hence, novel therapeutics are clearly necessary for GI cancer patients.

: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive form of breast cancer with limited treatment options. The nuclear export protein XPO1 has emerged as a potential therapeutic target in cancer, but its role in TNBC has not been fully characterized. This study investigates the potential of repurposing selinexor, an FDA-approved XPO1 inhibitor, as a novel therapeutic options for TNBC.
