  • Title: Targeted Therapies in Veterinary Oncology.
    Author: Londhe P, Gutwillig M, London C.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 2019 Sep; 49(5):917-931. PubMed ID: 31186124.
    Abstract:
    Advances in molecular biology have permitted a much more detailed understanding of cellular dysfunction at the molecular and genetic levels in cancer cells. This has resulted in the identification of novel targets for therapeutic intervention, including proteins that regulate signal transduction, gene expression, and protein turnover. In many instances, small molecules are used to disrupt the function of these targets, often through competitive inhibition of ATP binding or the prevention of necessary protein-protein interactions. More than 40 small molecule inhibitors are now approved to treat a variety of human cancers, substantially impacting patient outcomes.
