Article Title: Development and application of Hsp90 inhibitors
Abstract: Heat shock protein 90 has emerged as an important target in several diseases. The present review will discuss our understanding of the role played by Hsp90 in regulating and maintaining the transformed phenotype in cancers and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as recent findings on its roles in fungal and viral infections. It will also update the reader on the preclinical development and clinical translation of Hsp90 inhibitors. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
