CK2 inhibitor CX-4945 targets EWS-FLI1 signaling network and shows therapeutic efficacy in metastatic mouse models of Ewing Sarcoma
2025-09-26
Abstract excerpt
Ewing sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive bone tumor that primarily affects children, adolescents, and young adults. EWS-FLI1 oncogenic fusion protein is indispensable for ES tumor survival and progression. Casein kinase II (CK2) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays an essential role in apoptosis, DNA damage repair, and the cell cycle. CK2 is highly expressed in ES and associated with metastatic disease and poor 5-ye...
