Intrinsic proteotoxic stress levels vary and act as a predictive marker for sensitivity of cancer cells to Hsp90 inhibition.

Response of tumours to Hsp90 inhibitors is highly variable and their clinical effects are unpredictable, emphasising the need for a predictive marker. We postulated that sensitivity to Hsp90 inhibitors is connected to basal proteotoxic stress that makes cells dependent on Hsp90. Therefore, we assess...
