Using phenotype-driven screening, we identified a multi-target small-molecule cocktail DLC79 (DAPT, LDN193189, CHIR99021, I-BET762, and Isx9) that effectively reprograms human glioma cells into neuron-like cells by activating endogenous ASCL1 (174.4-fold) and remodeling the transcriptional landscape...In a subcutaneous xenograft model, brief pretreatment with DLC79 significantly attenuated the tumorigenic potential of glioma cells, reducing tumor bioluminescence by 56% and tumor mass by 47%. Our study establishes pharmacological reprogramming as a promising anti-glioma strategy that leverages neuronal conversion to reduce oncogenic properties, thereby initiating a novel therapeutic paradigm.

To investigate the biological effects of BET proteins, two small-molecule inhibitors, JQ1 and I-BET762, were used to assess their impact on UF cell behavior and transcriptomic profiles. Collectively, these results support that BET proteins play a pivotal role in regulating key signaling pathways and cellular processes in UFs. Targeting BET proteins may therefore represent a promising non-hormonal therapeutic strategy for UF treatment.

LRGs serve as promising biomarkers for prognosis prediction and risk stratification in MM. The overexpression of chromosomal instability-related and high-risk genetic event-associated genes in high-risk patients may explain their poorer outcomes. Given the observed resistance to bortezomib and lenalidomide in high-risk patients, combination therapies involving BMS-754807 or I-BET-762 may represent effective alternatives.

Furthermore, drug sensitivity analysis indicated that high-risk patients were more sensitive to Thapsigargin, Docetaxel, AKT inhibitor VIII, Pyrimethamine, and Epothilone B, while showing higher resistance to drugs such as I-BET-762, PHA-665752, and Belinostat. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of NRGs in BC and establishes reliable ML-based diagnostic and prognostic models. The findings highlight the clinical relevance of NRGs in BC progression, immune regulation, and therapy response, offering potential targets for personalized treatment strategies.

We further propose I-BET-762 and Enzastaurin as potential therapeutic candidates for glioma. In conclusion, the four-gene signature we identified and the corresponding risk score model constructed from it provide valuable tools for the prognosis prediction of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and may guide personalized treatment strategies. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) risk score has demonstrated significant prognostic evaluation utility in clinical GBM patients, bringing potential implications for patient stratification and the optimization of treatment regimens.

When the bromodomain inhibitor I-BET-762 was used to treat macrophages or mice with pancreatitis, high levels of HO-1 were reduced. This study shows that bromodomain inhibitors can be used to prevent physiological responses to inflammation that promote tumorigenesis.

Furthermore, inhibiting BET proteins with their small, potent inhibitors (JQ1 and I-BET 762) significantly inhibited the uLMS proliferation dose-dependently via cell cycle arrest. The connections between BET proteins and crucial biological pathways provide a fundamental structure to better understand uterine diseases, particularly uLMS pathogenesis. Accordingly, targeting the vulnerable epigenome may provide an additional regulatory mechanism for uterine cancer treatment.

ChIP-PCR and ChIP-seq analyses revealed that histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation was enriched in the ALDH1A3 promoter in 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)-tolerant persister PDCs. By chemical library screening, we found that the BET inhibitors OTX015/birabresib and I-BET-762/molibresib suppressed DTP-related ALDH1A3 expression and preferentially inhibited DTP cell growth...Combination therapy with 5-FU and OTX015 significantly suppressed in vivo tumor growth. These observations suggest that BET inhibitors are efficient DTP cell-targeting agents for gastric cancer treatment.

BRD4 inhibition by JQ-1 and I-BET-762 or BRD4 knockdown resulted in substantial accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in both HEK293T and HeLa cells. Our results suggest that ROS accumulation and FSP1 downregulation are common mechanisms underlying increased ferroptosis with BRD4 inhibitors. Thus, BRD4 inhibitors might be more effective in combination with ferroptosis inducers, especially in FSP1-dependent cancer cells.

RNAseq analysis demonstrated that the inhibitors increased viral E1A expression, altered expression of cell cycle regulators and inflammatory factors, and attenuated expression levels of tumour cell oncogenes such as c-Myc and Myb. The data suggest that the tumour-selective Ad∆∆ and Ad-3∆-A20T combined with epigenetic inhibitors is a novel strategy for the treatment of PDAC by eliminating both cancer and associated stromal cells to pave the way for immune cell access even after systemic delivery of the virus.

Molibresib in combination with fulvestrant did not demonstrate clinically meaningful activity in this study.
