A Novel Platinum Compound Inhibits Constitutive Stat3 Signaling and Induces Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis of Malignant Cells
27 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have established constitutive activation of Stat3 protein as one of the molecular changes required for tumorigenesis. To develop novel therapeutics for tumors harboring constitutively active Stat3, compounds from the NCI 2000 diversity set were evaluated for inhibition of Stat3 DNA-binding activity in vitro. Of these, a novel platinum (IV) compound, IS3 295, interacted with Stat3 and inhibited...
