Previous cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) generally have low cytosolic delivery efficiencies, because of inefficient endosomal escape. In this study, a family small, amphipathic cyclic was found to be highly efficient CPPs, with efficiencies up 120% (compared 2.0% for Tat). These CPPs bind directly the plasma membrane phospholipids and enter mammalian cells via endocytosis, followed by release from endosome. Their total cellular uptake efficiency correlates positively binding affinity...

Androgen receptor (AR) mediates the growth of prostate cancer throughout its course development, including in abnormal splice variants (AR-SV)-driven advanced stage castration-resistant disease. AR stabilization by androgens makes it distinct from other steroid receptors, which are typically ubiquitinated and degraded proteasomes after ligand binding. Thus, targeting requires development agents that can sustainably degrade variant isoforms for effective therapy. Here we report discovery...

Abstract Despite the presence of CTLs in tumor microenvironment, majority immunogenic human colon cancer does not respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy, and microsatellite instable (MSI) tumors are naturally eliminated. The molecular mechanism underlying inactivity tumor-infiltrating is unknown. We report here that were present both MSI stable tumors. expression H3K9me3-specific histone methyltransferase SUV39H1 was significantly elevated carcinoma compared with normal...

Androgen receptor (AR) ligands are important for the development and function of several tissues organs. However, poor oral bioavailability, pharmacokinetic properties, cross-reactivity testosterone, coupled with side effects, place limits on its clinical use. Selective AR modulators (SARMs) elicit anabolic effects in muscle bone, sparing reproductive organs like prostate. molecular mechanisms underlying tissue selectivity remain ambiguous. We performed a variety vitro studies to compare...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have proven activity in hematologic malignancies, and their FDA approval multiple myeloma (MM) T-cell lymphoma highlights the need for further development of this drug class. We investigated AR-42, an oral pan-HDACi, a first-in-man phase 1 dose escalation clinical trial. Overall, treatment was well tolerated, no DLTs were evident, MTD defined as 40 mg dosed three times weekly weeks 28-day cycle. One patient each with MM mantle cell demonstrated disease...

Abstract Purpose: Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) inhibitors (NAMPTi) are currently in development, but may be limited as single-agent therapy due to compound-specific toxicity and cancer metabolic plasticity allowing resistance development. To potentially lower the doses of NAMPTis required for therapeutic benefit against acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we performed a genome-wide CRISPRi screen identify rational disease-specific partners novel NAMPTi, KPT-9274.

Objectives: Higher catabolic clearance (CL) of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is a biomarker for less favorable outcomes, independent drug exposure, in patients with cancer, thus leading to confounded exposure-response relationships. Patients rapid mAb CL present cancer cachexia phenotypes[1,2], though underlying mechanisms linking high CL, poor response, and are poorly understood. Our previous research demonstrates elevated ICIs can be replicated mouse models cachexia, the increased...
