Upregulation of stress chaperone Mortalin has been closely linked to the malignant transformation of cells, tumorigenesis, the progression of tumors to highly aggressive stages, metastasis, drug resistance, and relapse. Various in vitro and in vivo assays have provided evidence of the critical role of Mortalin upregulation in promoting cancer cell characteristics, including proliferation, migration, invasion, and the inhibition of apoptosis, a consistent feature of most cancers. Given its critical role in several steps in oncogenesis and multi-modes of action, Mortalin presents a promising target for cancer therapy. Consequently, Mortalin inhibitors are emerging as potential anti-cancer drugs. In this review, we discuss various inhibitors of Mortalin (peptides, small RNAs, natural and synthetic compounds, and antibodies), elucidating their anti-cancer potentials.
