Therapeutic Potential of Heat Shock Protein 90 Inhibitors, Geldanamycin, and Analog Compounds in Precision Cancer Therapy

Heat shock protein (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone involved in numerous physiological processes. The primary role of this is to assist in the process of protein folding and to restore misfolded proteins to their correct shape. Chaperones additionally inhibit protein breakdown and aggregation. HSP90...

description Heat shock protein (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone involved in numerous physiological processes. The primary role of this is to assist in the process of protein folding and to restore misfolded proteins to their correct shape. Chaperones additionally inhibit protein breakdown and aggregation. HSP90 inhibitors possess a notable characteristic of obstructing many cancer-causing pathways by facilitating the breakdown of numerous oncogenic client proteins. Targeting HSP90 therapeutics has been recognized as a viable approach for treating cancer and inflammatory-associated disorders in clinical studies involving different forms of cancer. Inhibition of HSP90 using natural, synthetic, and semi-synthetic chemicals has shown encouraging outcomes. HSP90 inhibitors have been extracted from several fungi, bacteria, and plant species. These naturally occurring chemicals play a crucial function in regulating HSP90 activity and can be utilized to develop innovative semi-synthetic or synthetic inhibitors. Over 120 clinical trials have been carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of HSP90 inhibitors as a supplementary therapy for different types of tumor cells. Presently, ongoing research is being carried out to acquire an understanding of innovative and more efficacious methods for treating cancer. Continuing in this research approach, we aim to investigate the discovery, biosynthesis, mechanism of action, and biological features of geldanamycin and its analogs.
