Background: Triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) are resistant to conventional therapies and molecular targets of TNBC are not explored in detail. Results: Coupling of ER stress and the MEK/ERK pathway by nifetepimine effectively kills TNBC cells. Conclusion: Nifetepimine plays a significant role in inducing apoptosis in TNBC cells. Significance: Our findings strongly suggest that nifetepimine may act as a potent anti-cancer agent for treatment of TNBC.
In this study, we report a highly stereoselective and versatile synthesis of spiro pyrazolones, promising motifs that are being employed as pharmacophores.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
