CB-RAF600E-1 exerts efficacy in vemurafenib-resistant and non-resistant-melanoma cells via dual inhibition of RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aim

Predicting novel dual inhibitors to combat adverse effects such as the development of resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma treatment due to the reactivation of MAPK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways is studied to help in reversal of cancer symptoms.Reversal of cancer symptoms in melanoma associated with vemurafenib resistance is driven by reactivation of MAPK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. Novel dual inhibitors targeting these proteins would be beneficial to combat resistance.

Methods

High-throughput virtual screening of the ChemBridge library against B-RAFV600E and Akt was performed using an automated protocol with the AutoDock VINA program. Luminescence and time-resolved fluorescence kits were used to measure enzyme activities. The MTT assay was used to
