Team finds gene that promotes drug resistance in cancer

Scientists from the University of Iowa and Brigham Young University have identified a gene that may be a target for overcoming drug resistance in cancer. The finding could not only improve prognostic and diagnostic tools for evaluating cancer and monitoring patients’ response to treatment but also could lead to new therapies directed at eradicating drug-resistant cancer cells. The University of Iowa is home to the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Target set on cancer gene MCL1

A research team pursuing one of the most commonly altered genes in cancer has laid a critical foundation for understanding this gene that could point the way toward developing drugs against it. The new research pinpoints compounds that repress MCL1′s activity and highlights an important companion gene that predicts if a tumor is dependent upon MCL1 for survival. Together, these tools suggest a path toward new therapeutics directed at MCL1.
