B. Areas of Interest
Dr. Chen’s research focuses on exploring signaling pathways that govern cancer cell survival as targets for drug discovery and design. He employs a multidisciplinary approach to identify new molecular targets by combining expertise ranging from synthetic organic chemistry to molecular and cellular biology in his research team. His laboratory has designed a series of novel small-molecule agents that cause apoptosis by attacking different molecular defects in tumor cells. These molecular targets include Akt signaling, Bcl-xL/Bcl-2, histone deacetylase, DNA methyltransferase, cyclin D1, b-catenin, and androgen receptor. These novel agents mediate antiproliferative effects through mechanisms distinct from that of conventional chemotherapeutic regimens, which will provide a rational approach for molecular targeted cancer therapy. Currently, many of these promising compounds are undergoing in vivo target validation in his laboratory using a number of cancer models including prostate, breast, lung, liver, and ovarian cancers. Two of these agents, the PDK-1 inhibitor OSU-03012 and the histone deacetylase inhibitor HDAC-42, are currently undergoing preclinical testing under the Rapid Access to Intervention Development (RAID) program at the National Cancer Institute, which will facilitate the translation of these agents into the clinic.
