Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:16220-5. 2002..Further, the data begin to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that underlie LSC-specific apoptosis and suggest new directions for AML therapy...
The sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide induces apoptosis of human acute myelogenous leukemia stem and progenitor cellsMonica L Guzman
University of Rochester School of Medicine, 601 Elmwood Ave, Box 703, Rochester, NY 14642, USA
Blood 105:4163-9. 2005..On the basis of these findings, we propose that the activity of PTL triggers LSC-specific apoptosis and as such represents a potentially important new class of drugs for LSC-targeted therapy...
Rapid and selective death of leukemia stem and progenitor cells induced by the compound 4-benzyl, 2-methyl, 1,2,4-thiadiazolidine, 3,5 dione (TDZD-8)Monica L Guzman
James P Wilmot Cancer Center, University of Rochester, NY 14642, USA
Blood 110:4436-44. 2007..We conclude that TDZD-8 uses a unique and previously unknown mechanism to rapidly target leukemia cells, including malignant stem and progenitor populations...
Discovery of agents that eradicate leukemia stem cells using an in silico screen of public gene expression dataDuane C Hassane
James P Wilmot Cancer Center, University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, NY, USA
Blood 111:5654-62. 2008..These findings suggest the use of multicenter collections of high-throughput data to facilitate discovery of leukemia drugs and drug targets...
Modulation of cell surface protein free thiols: a potential novel mechanism of action of the sesquiterpene lactone parthenolideJolanta Skalska
James P Wilmot Cancer Center, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York, United States of America
PLoS ONE 4:e8115. 2009..Given recent data to suggest that the redox status of extracellular protein thiol groups (i.e. exofacial thiols) effects cell behavior, we hypothesized that redox active anti-cancer agents would modulate exofacial protein thiols...
An orally bioavailable parthenolide analog selectively eradicates acute myelogenous leukemia stem and progenitor cellsMonica L Guzman
James P Wilmot Cancer Center, University of Rochester, NY 14642, USA
Blood 110:4427-35. 2007..Therefore, based on the collective preclinical data, we propose that the novel compound DMAPT has the potential to target human LSCs in vivo...

The NF-kappaB subunit Rel A is associated with in vitro survival and clinical disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia and represents a promising therapeutic targetSaman Hewamana
Department of Haematology, School of Medicine, Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom
Blood 111:4681-9. 2008..001, r(2) = 0.3), implicating Rel A in fludarabine resistance. Taken together, these data indicate that Rel A represents an excellent therapeutic target for this incurable disease...
Aberrant eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-dependent mRNA transport impedes hematopoietic differentiation and contributes to leukemogenesisIvan Topisirovic
Structural Biology Program, Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York University, One Gustave Levy Place, New York, NY 10029, USA
Mol Cell Biol 23:8992-9002. 2003..Thus, our findings indicate that this nuclear function of eIF4E can contribute to leukemogenesis by promoting growth and by impeding differentiation...
