Deskripsi

The oncogene STAT5 is involved in cancer cell proliferation. Here, the authors use STAT5 protein to assemble its own small molecule inhibitors via Mannich ligation (three-component-reactions) and show that the resultant ligands can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells in a mouse model.
