Mechanisms of Acquired Drug Resistance to the HDAC6 Selective Inhibitor Ricolinostat Reveals Rational Drug-Drug Combination with Ibrutinib

Mechanisms of Drug Resistance

Progress of research into the problem of resistance to antibiotics is held back by lack of knowledge of the biochemical mechanisms by which these drugs act. Fortunately, it is possible to study some of the mechanisms of drug resistance, even at a biophysical or biochemical level, without necessarily knowing very much about how the drug works—just as it is possible to study (at least at a biolog...

Drug Resistance

عفونت و تهاجم ارگانیسم های انگلی به بدن، عامل اصلی بیماری و مرگ انسانها از آغاز بشریت بوده است . در حقیقت بسیاری از اشکال حیات بدون غلبه بر ارگانیسم های زنده دیگر، قادر به ادامه زندگی نخواهند بود. انسانها معمولا مستعد تهاجم ارگانیسم های کوچکتری مانند کرمها، آمیب ها، قارچها، باکتریها و ویروسها هستند. این عوامل مکان خاصی را در بدن انتخاب کرده، مواد ضروری لازم برای حیات و تکثیر خود را دریافت نموده...

Covalent EGFR inhibitor analysis reveals importance of reversible interactions to potency and mechanisms of drug resistance.

Covalent inhibition is a reemerging paradigm in kinase drug design, but the roles of inhibitor binding affinity and chemical reactivity in overall potency are not well-understood. To characterize the underlying molecular processes at a microscopic level and determine the appropriate kinetic constants, specialized experimental design and advanced numerical integration of differential equations a...

A biomaterial screening approach reveals microenvironmental mechanisms of drug resistance.

Traditional drug screening methods lack features of the tumor microenvironment that contribute to resistance. Most studies examine cell response in a single biomaterial platform in depth, leaving a gap in understanding how extracellular signals such as stiffness, dimensionality, and cell-cell contacts act independently or are integrated within a cell to affect either drug sensitivity or resista...
