Targeting Casein Kinase 2 and Histone Deacetylase with a Dual Inhibitor Effectively Reduces Tumor Growth in a Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Xenograft Model. Acs Pharmacol Transl Sci, 8:2093-2105, 2025 Cited by PubMed Abstract: In a previous study, was identified as a potent dual inhibitor of CK2 and HDAC enzymes. In this study, we evaluated its selectivity and therapeutic potential. exhibited high selectivity for CK2 within a panel of 21 kinases and more widespread inhibitory activity against histone deacetylases (HDAC 1, 2, 3, and 6, low activity for HDAC8). Using a mouse model of triple-negative breast cancer (MDA-MB-231), we further explored its effects on disease progression. Notably, animals treated with exhibited no detectable signs of toxicity or behavioral side effects relative to untreated mice. In a xenograft study, significantly reduced tumor growth ( = 0.0336) and decreased tumor burden ( = 0.0454) compared to the vehicle (DMSO)-treated group. In addition, modulated critical cellular signaling pathways, demonstrated by the inhibition of AKT phosphorylation ( = 0.0175) and a significant increase in acetylated α-tubulin ( = 0.0023), confirming the dual action of . Furthermore, X-ray crystallography revealed the binding mode of to CK2, showing high conservation compared to that of the known CK2 inhibitor CX-4945. These results suggest that has significant potential as an antitumor agent. Nonclinical and clinical studies become now necessary to validate the efficacy of this new chemical entity as a potential drug.
