Cancerous inhibitor of PP2A is targeted by natural compound celastrol for degradation in non-small-cell lung cancer.

Celastrol binds CIP2A and enhances CIP2A-CHIP interaction, leading to ubiquitination/degradation of CIP2A and inhibition of lung cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Celastrol potentiates cisplatin's efficacy by suppressing the CIP2A-Akt pathway, and therefore CIP2A inhibitors may represent novel therapeutics for cancer.
