A novel USP4 inhibitor that suppresses colorectal cancer stemness by promoting β-catenin and Twist1 degradation by Fengtian Li, Yi Zhou, Xinyue Lin, Yaxin Zhang, Qingyong Hu, Enen Zhao, Huali Li, Xingyan Pan, Feng Shu, Kun Zhang, Chengmei Huang, Na Tang, Wenting Liao

“…A natural small molecule product U4-I05 diminished the stem-like features of CSCs and enhanced their sensitivity to oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil by targeting inhibition of its deubiquitinating enzyme activity through binding the catalytic domain of USP4 (311 cysteine site) at nanomolar concentrations, triggering proteasome-mediated degradation of β-catenin and Twist1. Treatment with U4-I05 also inhibited tumor metastasis and extended survival in a genetically engineered CRC mouse model. …”
