KDM5C: A Promising Drug Candidate for Various Diseases

KDM5C (Ketotifenide Monohydrate) is a drug candidate that is being investigated for its potential as a treatment for various diseases, including cancer. It is a small molecule that is derived from a natural compound found in the liver, and it works by inhibiting the production of a protein that is involved in cell growth and division.

KDM5C is currently being tested in clinical trials for its potential as a treatment for various diseases, including cancer. In these trials, KDM5C is being administered to patients using various dosage strengths, and the results are being monitored to see if it is effective in treating the diseases.

One of the potential benefits of KDM5C is that it is a highly targeted drug, which means that it is designed to specifically target the protein that it is intended to inhibit. This makes it more effective than other drugs, which may have more widespread effects and be less effective at treating certain diseases.

In addition to its targeted approach, KDM5C is also being tested for its potential benefits as a treatment for various diseases. For example, it is being investigated for its potential as a treatment for cancer, including breast, lung, and ovarian cancer.

In these investigations, KDM5C is being administered to patients using various dosage strengths. The results of these trials are being monitored to see if KDM5C is effective in treating cancer, and if it is safe and well-tolerated when used.

Overall, KDM5C is a promising drug candidate that is being investigated for its potential as a treatment for various diseases. With further research, it could potentially be approved for use and become a valuable tool in the treatment of these diseases.

Protein Name: Lysine Demethylase 5C

Functions: Histone demethylase that specifically demethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3, thereby playing a central role in histone code (PubMed:28262558). Does not demethylate histone H3 'Lys-9', H3 'Lys-27', H3 'Lys-36', H3 'Lys-79' or H4 'Lys-20'. Demethylates trimethylated and dimethylated but not monomethylated H3 'Lys-4'. Participates in transcriptional repression of neuronal genes by recruiting histone deacetylases and REST at neuron-restrictive silencer elements. Represses the CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimer-mediated transcriptional activation of the core clock component PER2 (By similarity)
