摘要: Interleukin (IL)-6 and Stat3 play key roles in ovarian cancer progression. However, the role of glycoprotein 130 (gp130), signal transducer this signaling axis, is not well-established. Currently, there are no small-molecule inhibitors gp130 under clinical development. In study, we show that an attractive drug target due to its promoting progression via activation downstream signaling. We also present preclinical studies SC144, first-in-class orally active inhibitor. SC144 shows greater potency human cell lines than normal epithelial cells. binds gp130, induces phosphorylation (S782) deglycosylation, abrogates nuclear translocation, further inhibits expression genes. addition, potent inhibition ligand-triggered Oral administration delays tumor growth a mouse xenograft model without significant toxicity tissues.
