Centrosome-targeting Drug Development Service

Inquiry

Centrosome plays important role in many biological processes including cell division and cell migration. Due to the importance of centrosome, the abnormalities of centrosome cause many disorders, such as cancers and ciliopathies. Inhibitors targeting centrosomal proteins have been applied in cancers and other centrosome-related diseases therapy successfully. For assisting our global customers making better progress in the therapeutic development of centrosome-related diseases, CD BioSciences provides centrosome-targeting drug development service with our advanced technology and experienced experts. In addition, our process chemistry experts can optimize your process and scale up chemical production according to your requirements for API manufacturing.

Overview of Centrosome-targeting Drugs

Centrosome is of important functions in regulating cell cycle, which makes it an attractive target for cancer treatment. Many compounds are used to against proteins involved in the regulation of different cell cycle points including drugs targeting the microtubule dynamics, Plks, Cdks, and AURK inhibitors. Drugs targeting microtubule dynamics include taxanes (paclitaxel and docetaxel) and vinca alkaloids (vinblastine, vincristine, and vinorelbine), which have been applied successfully for treating varieties of cancers, such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer and lung cancer. And a series of acridinones compounds have been found to be promising therapies against cancer causing G2-M arrest, inhibition of cell migration, and apoptosis.

CCB02 CPAP-Tubulin Inhibitor Binding to tubulin and competing for the CPAP binding site of β-tubulin, shows potent anti-tumor activity.

Because chromosomal instability (CIN) and centrosome abnormalities are widespread and specific phenotypes of cancer cells, approaches that target these features have the potential to be effective against a wide range of malignancies. Several compounds have been identified to be the promising therapeutic drug of cacer, which inhibit chromosome missegregation or specifically killing aneuploid cells.
