  • Publication number: 20120309702
    Abstract: An inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) can include a coumermycin A1 analog having a structure that inhibits HSP90 greater than coumermycin A1. That is, the coumermycin A1 analog is not coumermycin A1. The coumermycin A1 analog can have an antiproliferative biological activity, which can be superior to coumermycin A1. The activity can include the coumermycin A1 analog inhibiting a C-terminus of HSP90.

  • Publication number: 20110082098
    Abstract: Novobiocin analogues are useful in methods of treating, inhibiting, and/or preventing cyst formation in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in a subject. The disclosure provides methods of treating ADPKD comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a coumarin-3-carboxamide novobiocin analogue. Accordingly, the method can include administering a novobiocin analogue in a therapeutically effective amount for reducing levels of mTOR pathway phosphoproteins P-mTOR, P-Akt and P-S6K, or combinations thereof. Further, the method can include administering a novobiocin analogue in a therapeutically effective amount for reducing levels of Hsp-90 client proteins CFTR, ErbB2, c-Raf and Cdk4, or combinations thereof.
