Transcription Factor STAT3 as a Novel Molecular Target for Cancer Prevention

TL;DR: Current literature is summarized, the potential importance of STAT3 as a novel target for cancer prevention and ofSTAT3 inhibitors as effective chemopreventive agents are discussed and the lag in developing effective STAT3 inhibitors is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

TRPM7 mediates breast cancer cell migration and invasion through the MAPK pathway

TL;DR: The results suggest that TRPM7 regulates migration and invasion of metastatic breast cancer cells via MAPK pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of O-Alkylamino-Tethered Niclosamide Derivatives as Potent and Orally Bioavailable Anticancer Agents

TL;DR: Compound 11 (HJC0152) has been demonstrated to significantly suppress MDA-MB-231 xenograft tumor growth in vivo, indicating its great potential as efficacious and orally bioavailable therapeutics for human cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel nitrogen-enriched oridonin analogues with thiazole-fused A-ring: protecting group-free synthesis, enhanced anticancer profile, and improved aqueous solubility.

TL;DR: These new analogues obtained by rationally modifying the natural product have been demonstrated not only to significantly induce the apoptosis and suppress growth of triple-negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer both in vitro and in vivo but also effective against drug-resistant ER-positive MCF-7 clones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fragment-based drug design and identification of HJC0123, a novel orally bioavailable STAT3 inhibitor for cancer therapy

TL;DR: The fragment-based drug design, systematic chemical synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel scaffolds as potent anticancer agents by utilizing six privileged fragments from known STAT3 inhibitors are reported, indicating its great potential as an efficacious and orally bioavailable drug candidate for human cancer therapy.
