The inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins are a family anti-apoptotic regulators found in viruses and metazoans. c-IAP1 c-IAP2 recruited to tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1)-associated complexes where they can regulate receptor-mediated signaling. Both have been implicated TNFalpha-stimulated NF-kappaB activation. However, individual gene knock-outs mice did not reveal changes TNF signaling pathways, the phenotype combined deficiency c-IAPs has yet be reported. Here we investigate...
The BCL-2/BCL-XL/BCL-W inhibitor ABT-263 (navitoclax) has shown promising clinical activity in lymphoid malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia. However, its efficacy these settings is limited by thrombocytopenia caused BCL-XL inhibition. This prompted the generation of BCL-2-selective venetoclax (ABT-199/GDC-0199), which demonstrates robust cancers but spares platelets. Navitoclax also been to enhance docetaxel preclinical models solid tumors, use this combination neutropenia. We...
Abstract The anti-apoptotic protein MCL-1 is a key regulator of cancer cell survival and known resistance factor for small-molecule BCL-2 family inhibitors such as ABT-263 (navitoclax), making it an attractive therapeutic target. However, directly inhibiting this target requires the disruption high-affinity protein–protein interactions, therefore designing small molecules potent enough to inhibit in cells has proven extremely challenging. Here, we describe series indole-2-carboxylic acids,...
BCL-2 family proteins dictate survival of human multiple myeloma cells, making them attractive drug targets. Indeed, cells are sensitive to antagonists that selectively target prosurvival such as BCL-2/BCL-XL (ABT-737 and ABT-263/navitoclax) or only (ABT-199/GDC-0199/venetoclax). Resistance these three drugs is mediated by expression MCL-1. However, given the selectivity profile venetoclax it unclear whether coexpression BCL-XL also affects antitumor responses in myeloma. In cell lines (n =...
A-1155463, a highly potent and selective BCL-XL inhibitor, was discovered through nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) fragment screening structure-based design. This compound is substantially more against BCL-XL-dependent cell lines relative to our recently reported WEHI-539, while possessing none of its inherent pharmaceutical liabilities. A-1155463 caused mechanism-based reversible thrombocytopenia in mice inhibited H146 small lung cancer xenograft tumor growth vivo following multiple doses....
A series of compounds were designed and synthesized as antagonists cIAP1/2, ML-IAP, XIAP based on the N-terminus, AVPI, mature Smac. Compound 1 (GDC-0152) has best profile these compounds; it binds to BIR3 domain, BIR domain domains cIAP1 cIAP2 with K(i) values 28, 14, 17, 43 nM, respectively. These promote degradation cIAP1, induce activation caspase-3/7, lead decreased viability breast cancer cells without affecting normal mammary epithelial cells. inhibits tumor growth when dosed orally...
Receptor-interacting protein (RIP), a Ser/Thr kinase component of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-1 signaling complex, mediates activation nuclear κB (NF-κB) pathway. RIP2 and RIP3 are related kinases that share extensive sequence homology with domain RIP. Unlike RIP, which has C-terminal death domain, RIP2, caspase recruitment possesses unique C terminus. binds RIP through this segment to inhibit RIP- TNF receptor-1-mediated NF-κB activation. We have identified homotypic...
Inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins are negative regulators cell death. IAP family members contain RING domains that impart E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. Binding endogenous or small-molecule antagonists to select baculovirus repeat (BIR) within cellular (cIAP) promotes autoubiquitination and proteasomal degradation so releases inhibition mediated by cIAP. Although the molecular details antagonist-BIR domain interactions well understood, it is not clear how this binding event influences...

Peptides that inhibit binding of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) to its receptors, KDR and Flt-1, have been produced using phage display. Libraries short disulfide-constrained peptides yielded three distinct classes bind the receptor-binding domain VEGF with micromolar affinities. The highest affinity peptide was also shown antagonize VEGF-induced proliferation primary human umbilical cells. a region known contain contact surface for Flt-1 functional determinants binding.
