Targeting lactate dehydrogenase-A inhibits tumorigenesis and tumor progression in mouse models of lung cancer and impacts tumor initiating cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that inactivation of LDH-A in mouse models of NSCLC driven by oncogenic K-RAS or EGFR leads to decreased tumorigenesis and disease regression in established tumors, and LDH -A can be a viable therapeutic target forNSCLC, including cancer stem cell-dependent drug-resistant tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preclinical activity of eltrombopag (SB-497115), an oral, nonpeptide thrombopoietin receptor agonist.

TL;DR: In conclusion, eltrombopag interacts selectively with the TpoR without competing with Tpo, leading to the increased proliferation and differentiation of human bone marrow progenitor cells into megakaryocytes and increased platelet production.
