Topoisomerase III (TOP3) Inhibitors as Antiviral and Anticancer Compounds based on Bisacridines

Abstract: Topoisomerase 3B (TOP3B) is the only topoisomerase that can act on RNA as well as DNA. Thus, it is a target of interest for the development of cancer therapies and RNA viral infection therapies. TOP3B is not an essential gene for carcinogenesis, but a subset of cancer cells with pre-existing genome instability are particularly vulnerable to...

Synergistic Use of Exo VII Inhibitors And Quinolone Antibiotics For Treating Bacterial Infection

Abstract: Topoisomerase poisons, such as quinolone antibiotics, are widely used as anticancer drugs and antibiotics. Quinolone antibiotics act by trapping prokaryotic type IIA topoisomerases (DNA gyrase and TOPO IV), resulting in irreversible topoisomerase cleavage complexes. However, current U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance reserves...

Topoisomerase III (TOP3) Inhibitors and Antiviral Compounds based on Cyanine Dyes

Topoisomerase 3B (TOP3B) is the only topoisomerase that can act on RNA as well as DNA, and thus has been a target of interest for the development of cancer therapies and RNA viral infection therapies. In the context of cancer, TOP3B is not an essential gene, but a subset of cancer cells with pre-existing genome instability are particularly vulnerable...
