How Cenisertib works
R763 is a highly potent and specific inhibitor of Aurora kinase, which has been shown to block proliferation and trigger apoptosis (cell death) in several tumor cell lines including cervical, colon, lung, pancreas and prostate. The over-expression of Aurora kinase can cause cells to rapidly develop an abnormal number of chromosomes. Elevated levels of Aurora kinase are frequently associated with various human cancers and inhibition of this enzyme disrupts cell division and promotes apoptosis. [Rigel Pharmaceuticals Press Release] A probable target for R763 is Aurora kinase A (serine/threonine protein kinase 6).
