Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is caused by BCR::ABL1. Tyrosine kinase-inhibitors (TKIs) are the initial therapy. Several organizations have reported milestones to evaluate response to initial TKI-therapy and suggest when a change of TKI should be considered. Achieving treatment-free remission (TFR) is increasingly recognized as the optimal therapy goal. Which TKI is the best initial therapy for which persons and what depth and duration of molecular remission is needed to achieve TFR are controversial. In this review we discuss these issues and suggest future research directions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since the introduction of first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib, the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has reached excellent survival expectancies. Long survival rates bring about issues regarding TKI safety. AREAS COVERED The aim of this review is to compare the side effects of current TKIs both in the first and later lines and outline a safety andprofile of CML treatment. Seminal studies on TKIs and other newer drugs and extended follow-up of these studies; real-life data of each drug were usedduring the course of this. PubMed was used as a search database and onlyarticles in English were included. EXPERT OPINION With longer follow-up CML patients, resistant slowgrade adverse events seem to be the major obstacle in the way of treatmentefficacy. If efficacy is the priority, vigorous treatment of side effect and administration of full dose TKI are reasonable. But when treatment goals are reached, dose modifications or alternative treatment regimens may be acceptedpossible. More studies are needed on dose modification protocols and potential benefits and safety of treatment-free remission.

Abstract
The advancement and practical use of small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that specifically target the BCR-ABL fusion protein have introduced a revolutionary era of precision medicine for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). This review offers a comprehensive exploration of the synthesis, mechanisms of action, and clinical implementation of clinically validated TKIs in the context of BCR-ABL, emphasizing the remarkable strides made in achieving therapeutic precision. We delve into the intricate design and synthesis of these small molecules, highlighting the synthetic strategies and modifications that have led to increased selectivity, enhanced binding affinities, and reduced off-target effects. Additionally, we discuss the structural biology of BCR-ABL inhibition and how it informs drug design. The success of these compounds in inhibiting aberrant kinase activity is a testament to the meticulous refinement of the synthetic process. Furthermore, this review provides a detailed analysis of the clinical applications of these TKIs, covering not only their efficacy in achieving deep molecular responses but also their impact on patient outcomes, safety profiles, and resistance mechanisms. We explore ongoing research efforts to overcome resistance and enhance the therapeutic potential of these agents. In conclusion, the synthesis and utilization of clinically validated small-molecule TKIs targeting BCR-ABL exemplify the transformative power of precision medicine in the treatment of hematological malignancies. This review highlights the evolving landscape of BCR-ABL inhibition and underscores the continuous commitment to refining and expanding the therapeutic repertoire for these devastating diseases.

Therapy for patients with chronic phase-chronic myeloid leukemia previously treated with ⩾2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors: a systematic literature review. Ther Adv Hematol 2023; 14:20406207221150305. [PMID: 38105770 PMCID: PMC10725100 DOI: 10.1177/20406207221150305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background ATP-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the current standard of care for patients with chronic phase-chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) in the first-line and second-line (2 L) setting. Treatment after 2 L is not clearly established. Objective The objective of this study was to summarize the available evidence to compare the efficacy and safety of interventions in the treatment of CP-CML patients who had received ⩾2 prior TKIs. Design A systematic literature review was performed. Data source and methods A systematic literature review (SLR) of studies published until May 2021, reporting clinical outcomes in adult patients with CP-CML who had received ⩾ 2 prior TKIs was performed. Studies were identified through the database searches via Ovid platform (Embase, MEDLINE Epub Ahead of Print, In-Process and Other Non-Indexed Citations, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials), the World Health Organization (WHO) International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP), bibliographic search of relevant reviews, and proceedings from the previous 3 years of the key conferences in the field of oncology. Results Our search identified 38 relevant studies. Among the identified studies of the current third-line treatments, the major molecular response (MMR) rate for ponatinib was 19.0-66.7%, 23.3-25.5% for asciminib, 19.2% for omacetaxine, and 13.2% for bosutinib at 6 months. The complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) rate was 21.4-64.8% for ponatinib, 38.7-40.8% for asciminib, 18-24.2% for bosutinib, and 16.1% for omacetaxine at 6 months. Conclusion The findings from current SLR demonstrated the lack of data for patients with CML treated with ⩾2 TKIs. TKIs such as asciminib, ponatinib, and bosutinib are valid options for those patients. Further research is needed to identify the best treatment option for patients with CML receiving later lines of therapy.

Abstract
Owing to genetic alterations and overexpression, the dysregulation of protein kinases plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of many autoimmune and neoplastic disorders and protein kinase antagonists have become an important drug target. Although the efficacy of imatinib in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia in the United States in 2001 was the main driver of protein kinase inhibitor drug discovery, this was preceded by the approval of fasudil (a ROCK antagonist) in Japan in 1995 for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm. There are 21 small molecule protein kinase inhibitors that are approved in China, Japan, Europe, and South Korea that are not approved in the United Sates and 75 FDA-approved inhibitors in the United States. Of the 21 agents, eleven target receptor protein-tyrosine kinases, eight inhibit nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinases, and two block protein-serine/threonine kinases. All 21 drugs are orally bioavailable or topically effective. Of the non-FDA approved drugs, sixteen are prescribed for the treatment of neoplastic diseases, three are directed toward inflammatory disorders, one is used for glaucoma, and fasudil is used in the management of vasospasm. The leading targets of kinase inhibitors approved by both international regulatory agencies and by the FDA are members of the EGFR family, the VEGFR family, and the JAK family. One-third of the 21 internationally approved drugs are not compliant with Lipinski's rule of five for orally bioavailable drugs. The rule of five relies on four parameters including molecular weight, number of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, and the Log of the partition coefficient.

Abstract
The conversion of cellular prion protein (PrPC) into pathogenic prion isoforms (PrPSc) and the mutation of PRNP are definite causes of prion diseases. Unfortunately, without exception, prion diseases are untreatable and fatal neurodegenerative disorders; therefore, one area of research focuses on identifying medicines that can delay the progression of these diseases. According to the concept of drug repositioning, we investigated the efficacy of the c-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor radotinib, which is a drug that is approved for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia, in the treatment of disease progression in prion models, including prion-infected cell models, Tga20 and hamster cerebellar slice culture models, and 263K scrapie-infected hamster models. Radotinib inhibited PrPSc deposition in neuronal ZW13-2 cells that were infected with the 22L or 139A scrapie strains and in cerebellar slice cultures that were infected with the 22L or 263K scrapie strains. Interestingly, hamsters that were intraperitoneally injected with the 263K scrapie strain and intragastrically treated with radotinib (100 mg/kg) exhibited prolonged survival times (159 ± 28.6 days) compared to nontreated hamsters (135 ± 9.9 days) as well as reduced PrPSc deposition and ameliorated pathology. However, intraperitoneal injection of radotinib exerted a smaller effect on the survival rate of the hamsters. Additionally, we found that different concentrations of radotinib (60, 100, and 200 mg/kg) had similar effects on survival time, but this effect was not observed after treatment with a low dose (30 mg/kg) of radotinib. Interestingly, when radotinib was administered 4 or 8 weeks after prion inoculation, the treated hamsters survived longer than the vehicle-treated hamsters. Additionally, a pharmacokinetic assay revealed that radotinib effectively crossed the blood-brain barrier. Based on our findings, we suggest that radotinib is a new candidate anti-prion drug that could possibly be used to treat prion diseases and promote the remission of symptoms.

Abstract
Since the initial clinical approval in the late 1990s and remarkable anticancer effects for certain types of cancer, molecular targeted therapy utilizing small molecule agents or therapeutic monoclonal antibodies acting as signal transduction inhibitors has served as a fundamental backbone in precision medicine for cancer treatment. These approaches are now used clinically as first-line therapy for various types of human cancers. Compared to conventional chemotherapy, targeted therapeutic agents have efficient anticancer effects with fewer side effects. However, the emergence of drug resistance is a major drawback of molecular targeted therapy, and several strategies have been attempted to improve therapeutic efficacy by overcoming such resistance. Herein, we summarize current knowledge regarding several targeted therapeutic agents, including classification, a brief biology of target kinases, mechanisms of action, examples of clinically used targeted therapy, and perspectives for future development.

Abstract
Modern clinical therapy of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with TKIs is highly efficacious in most CML patients, while it is not remedial and generally confined due to intolerance or resistance. CML is currently considered a severe disease. Interestingly, stem cell transplantation in the past decade was an attractive clinical therapeutic option in CML patients, but it is not successful due to independently more death rates in older patients. So, the targeting of BCR::ABL oncoprotein is extensively used to enhance the reduction in a higher percentage of CML patients by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, resistance or intolerance responses to these inhibitors are responsible for future deterioration and further development of disease. At this point, the clinical treatment of CML is a major challenge, and the lack of molecular responses to TKIs are not succeeded with chemotherapy alone. So, the considerable efficacious clinical necessities remain unmet. Therefore, continuous efforts are needed to explore new potential treatment strategies with an increasing understanding of CML biology. Therefore, this review deals with the investigation of TKI treatment with interferon, chemotherapy (Hydroxyurea, Homoharringtonine, Omacetaxine, Cytarabine), and several other new TKIs under beneficial clinical trials. Additionally, the approaches towards TKIs-resistant or intolerant CML cells where the respective signaling pathway gets up-regulated are also targeted with its inhibitor. This review presents evidence that new TKIs under clinical and pre-clinical trials may improve the chemotherapy of CML.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, continued use of these inhibitors has contributed to the increase in clinical resistance and the persistence of resistant leukemic stem cells (LSCs). So, there is an urgent need to introduce additional targeted and selective therapies to eradicate quiescent LSCs, and to avoid the relapse and disease progression. Here, we focused on emerging BCR-ABL targeted and non-BCR-ABL targeted drugs employed in clinical trials and on alternative CML treatments, including antioxidants, oncolytic virus, engineered exosomes, and natural products obtained from marine organisms that could pave the way for new therapeutic approaches for CML patients.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a clonal myeloproliferative neoplasm driven by BCR-ABL1 oncoprotein, which plays a pivotal role in CML pathology, diagnosis, and treatment as confirmed by the success of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Despite advances in the development of more potent tyrosine kinase inhibitors, some mechanisms particularly in terms of CML leukemic stem cell (CML LSC) lead to intrinsic or acquired therapy resistance, relapse, and disease progression. In fact, the maintenance CML LSCs in patients who are resistance to TKI therapy indicates the role of CML LSCs in resistance to therapy through survival mechanisms that are not completely dependent on BCR-ABL activity. Targeting therapeutic approaches aim to eradicate CML LSCs through characterization and targeting genetic alteration and molecular pathways involving in CML LSC survival in a favorable leukemic microenvironment and resistance to apoptosis, with the hope of providing a functional cure. In other words, it is possible to develop the combination therapy of TKs with drugs targeting genes or molecules more specifically, which is required for survival mechanisms of CML LSCs, while sparing normal HSCs for clinical benefits along with TKIs.

Abstract
The central role of dysregulated kinase activity in the etiology of progressive disorders, including cancer, has fostered incremental efforts on drug discovery programs over the past 40 years. As a result, kinase inhibitors are today one of the most important classes of drugs. The FDA approved 73 small molecule kinase inhibitor drugs until September 2021, and additional inhibitors were approved by other regulatory agencies during that time. To complement the published literature on clinical kinase inhibitors, we have prepared a review that recaps this large data set into an accessible format for the medicinal chemistry community. Along with the therapeutic and pharmacological properties of each kinase inhibitor approved across the world until 2020, we provide the synthesis routes originally used during the discovery phase, many of which were only available in patent applications. In the last section, we also provide an update on kinase inhibitor drugs approved in 2021.

Resistance to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia-From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Relevance. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13194820. [PMID: 34638304 PMCID: PMC8508378 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13194820] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasia associated with a molecular alteration, the fusion gene BCR-ABL1, that encodes the tyrosine kinase oncoprotein BCR-ABL1. This led to the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), with Imatinib being the first TKI approved. Although the vast majority of CML patients respond to Imatinib, resistance to this targeted therapy contributes to therapeutic failure and relapse. Here we review the molecular mechanisms and other factors (e.g., patient adherence) involved in TKI resistance, the methodologies to access these mechanisms, and the possible therapeutic approaches to circumvent TKI resistance in CML. Abstract Resistance to targeted therapies is a complex and multifactorial process that culminates in the selection of a cancer clone with the ability to evade treatment. Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) was the first malignancy recognized to be associated with a genetic alteration, the t(9;22)(q34;q11). This translocation originates the BCR-ABL1 fusion gene, encoding the cytoplasmic chimeric BCR-ABL1 protein that displays an abnormally high tyrosine kinase activity. Although the vast majority of patients with CML respond to Imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), resistance might occur either de novo or during treatment. In CML, the TKI resistance mechanisms are usually subdivided into BCR-ABL1-dependent and independent mechanisms. Furthermore, patients’ compliance/adherence to therapy is critical to CML management. Techniques with enhanced sensitivity like NGS and dPCR, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, and the development of mathematical modeling and computational prediction methods could reveal the underlying mechanisms of drug resistance and facilitate the design of more effective treatment strategies for improving drug efficacy in CML patients. Here we review the molecular mechanisms and other factors involved in resistance to TKIs in CML and the new methodologies to access these mechanisms, and the therapeutic approaches to circumvent TKI resistance.

Multidisciplinary Approaches Identify Compounds that Bind to Human ACE2 or SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein as Candidates to Block SARS-CoV-2-ACE2 Receptor Interactions. mBio 2021; 12:e03681-20. [PMID: 33785634 PMCID: PMC8092326 DOI: 10.1128/mbio.03681-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a recently emerged virus that causes coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, like SARS-CoV-1, uses the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as a cellular receptor to initiate infection. Compounds that interfere with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain protein (RBD)-ACE2 receptor interaction may function as entry inhibitors. Here, we used a dual strategy of molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) screening of compound libraries to identify those that bind to human ACE2 or the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD). Molecular modeling screening interrogated 57,641 compounds and focused on the region of ACE2 that is engaged by RBD of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and vice versa. SPR screening used immobilized human ACE2 and SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein to evaluate the binding of these proteins to a library of 3,141 compounds. These combined screens identified compounds from these libraries that bind at KD (equilibrium dissociation constant) <3 μM affinity to their respective targets, 17 for ACE2 and 6 for SARS-CoV-2 RBD. Twelve ACE2 binders and six of the RBD binders compete with the RBD-ACE2 interaction in an SPR-based competition assay. These compounds included registered drugs and dyes used in biomedical applications. A Vero-E6 cell-based SARS-CoV-2 infection assay was used to evaluate infection blockade by candidate entry inhibitors. Three compounds demonstrated dose-dependent antiviral in vitro potency-Evans blue, sodium lifitegrast, and lumacaftor. This study has identified potential drugs for repurposing as SARS-CoV-2 entry inhibitors or as chemical scaffolds for drug development.IMPORTANCE SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, has caused more than 60 million cases worldwide with almost 1.5 million deaths as of November 2020. Repurposing existing drugs is the most rapid path to clinical intervention for emerging diseases. Using an in silico screen of 57,641 compounds and a biophysical screen of 3,141 compounds, we identified 22 compounds that bound to either the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and/or the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain (SARS-CoV-2 spike protein RBD). Nine of these drugs were identified by both screening methods. Three of the identified compounds, Evans blue, sodium lifitegrast, and lumacaftor, were found to inhibit viral replication in a Vero-E6 cell-based SARS-CoV-2 infection assay and may have utility as repurposed therapeutics. All 22 identified compounds provide scaffolds for the development of new chemical entities for the treatment of COVID-19.

Abstract
Abl1 tyrosine kinase is a validated target for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. It is a form of cancer that is difficult to treat and much research is being done to identify new molecular entities and to tackle drug resistance issues. In recent years, drug resistance of Abl1 tyrosine kinase has become a major healthcare concern. Second and third-generation TKI reported better responses against the resistant forms; still they had no impact on long-term survival prolongation. New compounds derived from natural products and organic small molecule inhibitors can lay the foundation for better clinical therapies in the future. Computational methods, experimental and biological studies can help us understand the mechanism of drug resistance and identify novel molecule inhibitors. ADMET parameters analysis of reported drugs and novel small molecule inhibitors can also provide valuable insights. In this review, available therapies, point mutations, structure-activity relationship and ADMET parameters of reported series of Abl1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors and drugs are summarised. We summarise in detail recent computational and molecular biology studies that focus on designing drug molecules, investigation of natural product compounds and organic new chemical entities. Current ongoing research suggests that selective targeting of Abl1 tyrosine kinase at the molecular level to combat drug resistance in chronic myeloid leukemia is promising.

Abstract
Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) results from a translocation between the breakpoint cluster region (BCR) gene on chromosome 9 and ABL proto-oncogene 1 (ABL1) gene on chromosome 22. The fusion gene, BCR-ABL1, is a constitutively active tyrosine kinase which promotes development of leukemia. Depending on the breakpoint site within the BCR gene, different isoforms of BCR-ABL1 exist, with p210 and p190 being the most prevalent. P210 isoform is the hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), while p190 isoform is expressed in majority of Ph-positive B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ B-ALL) cases. The crucial component of treatment protocols of CML and Ph+ B-ALL patients are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), drugs which target both BCR-ABL1 isoforms. While TKIs therapy is successful in great majority of CML patients, Ph+ B-ALL often relapses as a drug-resistant disease. Recently, the high-throughput genomic and proteomic analyses revealed significant differences between CML and Ph+ B-ALL. In this review we summarize recent discoveries related to differential signaling pathways mediated by different BCR-ABL1 isoforms, lineage-specific genetic lesions, and metabolic reprogramming. In particular, we emphasize the features distinguishing Ph+ B-ALL from CML and focus on potential therapeutic approaches exploiting those characteristics, which could improve the treatment of Ph+ B-ALL.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and BCR-ABL1 inhibitors form the mainstay of CML treatment. Although patients with CML generally do well under TKI therapy, there is a subgroup of patients who are resistant and/or intolerant to TKIs. In these group of patients, there is the need of additional treatment strategies. In this review, we provide an update on the current knowledge of these novel treatment approaches that can be used alone and/or in combination with TKIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this review, we have summarized the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and adverse effects of imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib, ponatinib and radotinib with focus on pharmacogenomic studies with clinical end points. We have discussed the key phase 3 trials of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) comparing with each other, treatment free remission (TFR) and selection of TKI. Upcoming concepts and related trials in the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) along with future directions have been touched upon. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION PubMed, Embase, Google, Cochrane library and Medline were searched to identify relevant literature for the review. Clinicaltrial.gov was searched for upcoming data and trials. RESULTS There are lot of gap in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of TKI. Imatinib appears to be the safest TKI. Newer TKI's achieve better achievement of therapeutic milestones, deeper molecular response and less chances of progression of CML compared to imatinib. Newer TKI appears to be better choice for achieving TFR. When the objective is survival, imatinib is still the TKI of choice. Primary prophylaxis with antiplatelet drugs for TKI having cardiovascular and thromboembolic side effects should be considered. CONCLUSION Pharmacogenetic data of TKI is still immature to guide in therapeutic decision making in clinical practice. There is need for further research in pharmacology and pharmacogenomics of newer TKI's. Randomized controlled trials are required to decide the optimum TKI for TFR. Safe and effective TKI for targeting T315I mutation, CML accelerated phase and blast crisis are an active area of research.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined the utility of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib in adult patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). TDM in CML entails the measurement of plasma tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) concentration to predict efficacy and tolerability outcomes and to aid in clinical decision making. TDM was to be deemed useful if it could be used for predicting the effectiveness of a drug and/or the occurrence of adverse reactions. It was expected that the findings from the present study would allow for the definition of a therapeutic range of each TKI. METHODS A systematic review of studies reporting trough TKI levels (Cmin) and clinical outcomes was performed. We included randomized clinical trials, nonrandomized controlled studies, interrupted time series studies, and case series studies that provided information about plasma levels of imatinib, nilotinib, or dasatinib and relevant clinical end points in adult patients with chronic-phase CML treated with the corresponding TKI as the single antiproliferative therapy. Meta-analyses, Student t tests, and receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed to detect mean differences between groups of patients with or without: (1) the achievement of major molecular response and (2) adverse reactions. FINDINGS A total of 38 studies (28 for imatinib, 7 for nilotinib, and 3 for dasatinib) were included in the systematic review. TDM was found useful in predicting the efficacy of imatinib, with a Cmin cutoff value of 1000 ng/mL, consistent with guideline recommendations. We suggest a therapeutic range of imatinib at a Cmin of 1000-1500 ng/mL because higher concentrations did not increase efficacy. The findings from the rest of the comparisons were inconclusive. IMPLICATIONS TDM is useful in predicting the efficacy of imatinib in CML. Further research is needed to determine its validity with nilotinib and dasatinib.

Abstract
Background and objectives Inhibition of Abelson (Abl) tyrosine kinase as a therapeutic target has been gaining attention in neurodegeneration. Post-mortem Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease brains show that the levels of several other tyrosine kinases, including Discoidin Domain Receptors (DDR1/2) are elevated. Knockdown of these tyrosine kinases with shRNA reduces neurotoxic proteins, including alpha-synuclein, beta-amyloid and tau. Methods Direct profiling of the pharmacokinetics of multi-kinase inhibitors Nilotinib, Bosutinib, Bafetinib, Radotinib and LCB-03-0110 shows differential levels of brain penetration but the ability of these agents to reduce toxic proteins is independent of brain concentration and selectivity to Abl. Results Our results indicate that the effective dose of Nilotinib has the lowest plasma:brain ratio (1%) followed by Bosutinib and Radotinib (5%), Bafetinib (12%) and LCB-03-0110 (12%). However, similar doses of multi-kinase Abl/DDR inhibitor Nilotinib, DDR/Src inhibitor LCB-03-0110 and Abl/Src inhibitor Bosutinib were much more effective than the more selective Abl inhibitors Radotinib and Bafetinib. Taken together, these data suggest that a multi-kinase target that includes Abl and other tyrosine kinases (DDRs, and Src) may offer more advantages alleviating neurodegenerative pathologies than the absolute CNS drug concentration and selectivity to Abl. Conclusion DDRs and Src are other potential co-targets with Abl in neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Angiogenesis plays a vital role in the process of embryo implantation, as it improves endometrial receptivity and guides embryo implantation, thus creating a favorable environment for subsequent development of the embryo. Hence, a theory of achieving contraception by inhibiting angiogenesis was put forward. Here, we screened the drugs inhibiting angiogenesis using cell scratch wound assay and a 3D biomimetic vascular microfluidic chip, then observed the effect of them on contraception by injecting these drugs into fertilized mice and observing if the embryos were implanted. We preliminarily verify the feasibility of contraception by inhibiting angiogenesis and gives a new direction in the development of contraceptive pills.

Abstract
Aurora kinases play critical roles in regulating several processes pivotal for mitosis. Radotinib, which is approved in South Korea as a second-line treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia, inhibits the tyrosine kinase BCR-ABL and platelet-derived growth factor receptor. However, the effects of radotinib on Aurora kinase expression in acute myeloid leukemia are not well studied. Interestingly, the cytotoxicity of acute myeloid leukemia cells was increased by radotinib treatment. Radotinib significantly decreased the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 and cyclin B1, the key regulators of G2/M phase, and inhibited the expression of Aurora kinase A and Aurora kinase B in acute myeloid leukemia cells. In addition, radotinib decreased the expression and binding between p-Aurora kinase A and TPX2, which are required for spindle assembly. Furthermore, it reduced Aurora kinase A and polo-like kinase 1 phosphorylation and suppressed the expression of α-, β-, and γ-tubulin in acute myeloid leukemia cells. Furthermore, radotinib significantly suppressed the key regulators of G2/M phase including cyclin B1 and Aurora kinase A in a xenograft animal model. Therefore, our results suggest that radotinib can abrogate acute myeloid leukemia cell growth both in vitro and in vivo and may serve as a candidate agent or a chemosensitizer for treating acute myeloid leukemia.
