Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by different mutations related to the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein (CFTR), with F508del being the most common. Pioneering the development of CFTR modulators, thanks to the development of effective correctors or potentiators, more recent studies deeply encouraged the administration of triple...

: Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs) are validated targets for cancer therapy, and the deregulation of their activities within the NF-κB pathway correlates with chemoresistance events, even after treatment with IAPs-antagonists in the clinic (Smac-mimetics). The molecule FC2 was identified as a NF-κB pathway modulator in MDA-MB-231...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease affecting the lungs and pancreas and causing progressive damage. CF is caused by mutations abolishing the function of CFTR, a protein whose role is chloride's mobilization in the epithelial cells of various organs. Recently a therapy focused on small molecules has been chosen as a main approach to...
