The paper identifies ASX-173 as a potent ASNS inhibitor that enhances the anti-cancer effects of L-asparaginase in leukemia and shows its potential across multiple cancer types.

This study shows that systemic knockout of Cdk8 and Cdk19 in mice leads to infertility due to depletion of cyclin C and impaired spermatogenesis, suggesting kinase-independent functions of CDK8/19.

This study shows that the Eg5 inhibitor SB743921 induces p53-dependent cell cycle arrest, senescence, and death in tumor cells, particularly in TP53-mutated cells, with potential for combinational therapy with senolytic drugs.
