The major approach to the development of anticancer drugs involves searching for new compounds, efficient against malignancies, which are not, as yet, used clinically. This strategy is time-consuming and expensive. Recent studies have disclosed a surprising, but mechanistically consistent, anticancer

Disulfiram has been used for several decades in the treatment of alcoholism. It now shows promise as an anticancer drug and radiosensitizer. Proposed mechanisms of action include the induction of oxidative stress and inhibition of proteasome activity. Our purpose was
The anti-alcoholism drug disulfiram (Antabuse), which is an inhibitor of aldehyde dehydrogenase, induces an aversive reaction to alcohol consumption and thereby helps patients reduce alcohol intake. Recent clinical trials, initiated to investigate whether disulfiram could be used to treat individuals
