The discovery that the prehension component of an open-loop, two-fingered reach is largely immune to certain salient pictorial illusions has been used to suggest that humans possess 2 distinct visual… (More)
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive form of breast cancer. Despite response to chemotherapy, relapses are frequent and resistance to available treatments is often observed in the… (More)
Demycarosyl-3D-ß-D-digitoxosyl-mithramycin SK (DIG-MSK) is a recently isolated analogue of mithramycin A (MTA) that showed differences with MTA in the DNA binding strength and selectivity. These… (More)
Protein kinases play a central role in the oncogenesis of colorectal tumors and are attractive druggable targets. Detection of activated kinases within a tumor could open avenues for drug selection… (More)
DIG-MSK (demycarosyl-3D-β-D-digitoxosyl-mithramycin SK) is a recently isolated compound of the mithramycin family of antitumor antibiotics, which includes mithramycin A (MTA) and mithramycin SK… (More)
The effects of mithramycin SK (MSK) and demycarosyl-3D-β-D-digitoxosyl-mithramycin SK (DIG-MSK; EC-8042), two novel analogs of the antitumor antibiotic mithramycin A, on gene transcription were… (More)
Deregulated activity of transcription factors (TFs) of the Sp/KLF family, like Sp1, Sp3 and Sp4, and consequent over-expression of Sp-regulated genes occur frequently in human cancers. This provides… (More)
DIG-MSK (demycarosil-3D-β-D-digitoxosyl mithramycin SK; EC-8042), a novel analogue of mithramycin A, induced autophagy in HCT116 human colon carcinoma and, to a lesser extent, in A2780 human ovarian… (More)
Tumor initiating cells (TICs), responsible for tumor initiation, and cancer stem cells (CSCs), responsible for tumor expansion and propagation, are often resistant to chemotherapeutic agents. To find… (More)

PURPOSE
The goal of this study was to identify second-generation mithramycin analogues that better target the EWS-FLI1 transcription factor for Ewing sarcoma. We previously established mithramycin as… (More)
