An overview of cdc2-like kinase 1 (Clk1) inhibitors and their therapeutic indications

Ahmed K. ElHady et al.

Summary: Clk1 has been identified as a promising target for the treatment of various diseases, especially those related to deregulated alternative splicing. Clinical trials of small molecule inhibitors targeting Clk1 are underway for the treatment of solid cancer, which is promoted by oncogenic protein variants derived from alternative splicing. In addition, Clk1 has been implicated in the progression of Alzheimer's disease. However, most Clk1 inhibitors lack sufficient selectivity, affecting other Clk isoforms and Dyrk kinases.
