The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) has been used by cancer cells to facilitate the function of numerous oncoproteins, and it can be argued that cancer cells are 'addicted' to HSP90. However, although recent reports of the early clinical efficacy of HSP90 inhibitors are encouraging, the optimal use of HSP90-targeted therapeutics will depend on understanding the complexity of HSP90 regulation and the degree to which HSP90 participates in both neoplastic and normal cellular physiology.
分子伴侣热休克蛋白 90(HSP90)已被癌细胞用于促进众多癌蛋白的功能,因此可以说癌细胞对 HSP90“上瘾”。然而,尽管最近 HSP90 抑制剂早期临床疗效的报告令人鼓舞,但 HSP90 靶向治疗的最佳应用将取决于对 HSP90 调节的复杂性以及 HSP90 参与肿瘤和正常细胞生理的程度的理解。
