  • KPT-350 (And Other XPO1 Inhibitors)
    Cognitive Vitality Reports® are reports written by neuroscientists at the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF). These scientific reports include analysis of drugs, drugs-in- development, drug targets, supplements, nutraceuticals, food/drink, non-pharmacologic interventions, and risk factors. Neuroscientists evaluate the potential benefit (or harm) for brain health, as well as for age-related health concerns that can affect brain health (e.g., cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes/metabolic syndrome). In addition, these reports include evaluation of safety data, from clinical trials if available, and from preclinical models. KPT-350 (and other XPO1 inhibitors) Evidence Summary CNS penetrant XPO1 inhibitor with pleiotropic effects. May protect against neuroinflammation and proteotoxic stress, but similar drugs show a poor benefit to side effect profile in cancer. Neuroprotective Benefit: KPT-350 may reduce neuroinflammation and partially alleviate nucleocytoplasmic transport defects, but effects are pleiotropic and dependent on cellular and environmental conditions. Aging and related health concerns: XPO1 inhibition may promote autophagy, but has pleiotropic effects and is only marginally beneficial in cancer. Safety: KPT-350 has not been clinically tested. Tested XPO1 inhibitors are associated with myelosuppression, gastrointestinal events, anorexia, low blood sodium, and neurological events. Poor benefit to side effect ratio in cancer. 1 Availability: In clinical trials and Dose: Oral administration KPT-350 research use Dose not established for KPT-350 Chemical formula: Half-life: Unknown for KPT-350 BBB: KPT-350 is penetrant C18H17F6N5O2 6-7 hours for selinexor MW: 449.3 g/mol SINEs terminal half-life ~24 hours Clinical trials: None completed for Observational studies: Evidence for KPT-350.

We have developed faithful patient-derived RMC models and using whole-genome sequencing, we identified loss-of-function intronic fusion events in one SMARCB1 allele with concurrent loss of the other allele. Biochemical and functional characterization of these models revealed that RMC requires the loss of SMARCB1 for survival.

    Lovrecic et al. Molecular Cytogenetics (2018) 11:39 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13039-018-0388-y CASE REPORT Open Access Microduplication in the 2p16.1p15 chromosomal region linked to developmental delay and intellectual disability Luca Lovrecic1* , Chiara Gnan2, Federica Baldan3, Alessandra Franzoni2, Sara Bertok4, Giuseppe Damante5, Bertrand Isidor6 and Borut Peterlin1 Abstract Background: Several patients with the 2p16.1p15 microdeletion syndrome have been reported. However, microduplication in the 2p16.1p15 chromosomal region has only been reported in one case, and milder clinical features were present compared to those attributed to 2p16.1p15 microdeletion syndrome. Some additional cases were deposited in DECIPHER database. Case presentation: In this report we describe four further cases of 2p16.1p15 microduplication in four unrelated probands. They presented with mild gross motor delay, delayed speech and language development, and mild dysmorphic features. In addition, two probands have macrocephaly and one a congenital heart anomaly. Newly described cases share several phenotype characteristics with those detailed in one previously reported microduplication case. Conclusion: The common features among patients are developmental delay, speech delay, mild to moderate intellectual disability and unspecific dysmorphic features. Two patients have bilateral clinodactyly of the 5th finger and two have bilateral 2nd-3rd toes syndactyly. Interestingly, as opposed to the deletion phenotype with some cases of microcephaly, 2 patients are reported

    Zhu et al. Cell Death and Disease (2019) 10:395 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-019-1627-9 Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access XPO1 inhibitor KPT-330 synergizes with Bcl-xL inhibitor to induce cancer cell apoptosis by perturbing rRNA processing and Mcl-1 protein synthesis Zhi-Chuan Zhu1, Ji-Wei Liu2,CanYang1,3, Miao Zhao4 and Zhi-Qi Xiong1,3,5 Abstract XPO1 (exportin1) mediates nuclear export of proteins and RNAs and is frequently overexpressed in cancers. In this study, we show that the orally bioavailable XPO1 inhibitor KPT-330 reduced Mcl-1 protein level, by which it synergized with Bcl- xL inhibitor A-1331852 to induce apoptosis in cancer cells. KPT-330/A-1331852 combination disrupted bindings of Mcl-1 and Bcl-xL to Bax, Bak, and/or Bim, elicited mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, and triggered apoptosis. KPT- 330 generally mitigated mRNA expression and protein synthesis rather than mRNA nuclear export or protein stability of Mcl-1. KPT-330 inhibited mTORC1/4E-BP1 and Mnk1/eIF4E axes, which disrupted the eIF4F translation initiation complex but was dispensable for Mcl-1 reduction and KPT-330/A-1331852 combination-induced apoptosis. Mature rRNAs are integral components of the ribosome that determines protein synthesis ability. KPT-330 impeded nucleolar rRNA processing and reduced total levels of multiple mature rRNAs. Reconstitution of XPO1 by expressing degradation-resistant C528S mutant retained rRNA amount, Mcl-1 expression, and Bcl-xL inhibitor resistance upon KPT-330 treatment.
