As someone with three long-term conditions, I see an expanded role for pharmacies in supporting me to manage them effectively, filling a major gap: someone to see me and my medications regimen as a whole.

Insights into NEK2 inhibitors as antitumor agents: From mechanisms to potential therapeutics.

Eur J Med Chem

January 2025

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Targeted Tracer Research and Development Laboratory, Institute of Respiratory Healthand, Department of Frontiers Science Center for Disease-related Molecular Network, Core Facilities, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, Sichuan, China. Electronic address:

NEK2, a serine/threonine protein kinase, is integral to mitotic events such as centrosome duplication and separation, microtubule stabilization, spindle assembly checkpoint, and kinetochore attachment. However, NEK2 overexpression leads to centrosome amplification and chromosomal instability, which are significantly associated with various malignancies, including liver, breast, and non-small cell lung cancer. This overexpression could facilitate tumor development and confer resistance to therapy by promoting aberrant cell division and centrosome amplification.
