초록

Female breast cancer is the fifth highest cause of mortality. Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer in women globally, while it can also affect men. STAT5A plays a role in its development and progression. Given that activation of STAT5a is frequently linked to the growth and progression of tumors, STAT5a has been identified as a possible target for the therapy of several cancers. STAT5A, in particular, has proven to be overexpressed in various breast cancer cell lines and tumors, and it has been associated to the promotion of tumour cell proliferation and survival. STAT5A inhibition has been shown in vitro and in vivo to reduce the development of breast cancer cells. As a result, we have screened compounds from the FDA database that might serve as potential inhibitors of STAT5a through virtual screening, docking, DFT and MD simulation approaches. The drug Nilotinib has shown promising results inhibiting STAT5a. Further, in-vitro analysis will be carried forward to understand the anti-cancer activity.
