Dihydrotanshinone I enhanced BRAF mutant melanoma treatment efficacy by inhibiting the STAT3/SOX2 signaling pathway by Xing Luo, Yi Duan, Jinwei He, CongGai Huang, Jun Liu, Yifan Liu, Mengdei Xu, Qiong Dai, Zhihui Yang

“…Combining DHT, BRAF inhibitors, and MEK inhibitors can help treat treatment-resistant BRAF mutant melanoma cells. Experimental results both in vitro and in vivo have shown that the combination of DHT and an inhibitor of the MAPK pathway is safer and more successful than using an inhibitor of the MAPK pathway alone when treating BRAF mutant melanoma.…”

Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibition re-sensitizes multidrug-resistant DLBCL tumors driven by BCL10 gain-of-function mutants to venetoclax by Caroline A. Coughlin, Dhanvantri Chahar, Marianna Lekakis, Abdessamad A. Youssfi, Lingxiao Li, Evan Roberts, Natalia Campos Gallego, Claude-Henry Volmar, Ola Landgren, Shaun Brothers, Anthony J. Griswold, Catalina Amador, Daniel Bilbao, Francesco Maura, Jonathan H. Schatz

“…Here, we build on recent findings implicating gain-of-function mutations in the BCL10 signaling protein as drivers of resistance to Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors. We show mutant BCL10-driven DLBCL is resistant to multiple additional drug classes, demonstrating urgency to derive mechanistically rooted strategies to overcome undruggable BCL10 mutants that stabilize BTK-independent signaling filaments upstream of NF-kB activation. …”
