EZH2 presents a therapeutic target for neuroendocrine tumors of the small intestine

166 views | Jul 30 2023

The study suggests that targeting the EZH2 histone methyltransferase with inhibitors like CPI-1205 and utilizing metformin may hold promise as potential therapeutic options for patients with small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs). [Read the Full Post]

Resistance to Pyrrolobenzodiazepine Dimers Is Associated with SLFN11 Downregulation and Can Be Reversed through Inhibition of ATR

291 views | Jun 30 2023

This study identified downregulation of Schlafen family member 11 (SLFN11) and its association with PBD resistance in cancer cells, highlighting the potential of targeting SLFN11 and combining ATR inhibitors to overcome resistance to PBD-conjugated ADCs. [Read the Full Post]

The role of EZH2 as a potential therapeutic target in retinoblastoma

196 views | Jun 30 2023

The study reveals that the high expression of EZH2 in retinoblastoma tissues is associated with poor overall survival, and inhibiting EZH2 with UNC1999 shows promising results in suppressing RB cell proliferation, metastasis, and tumor glycolysis, making it a potential target for anti-RB treatment.
