Our study suggests that JuSt-23F inhibits apoptosis selectively in B-cell lymphoma cells. JuSt-23F exerts its antiproliferative effects on MCL cells through targeting the downstream BTK signaling cascade via down-regulation of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B-cells and ERK1/2 pathways. Thus, our findings propose the novel BTK inhibitor JuSt-23F as an attractive potential agent for investigation and treatment of MCL.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
