HSP90 continues to be a target of interest for neurodegeneration indications. Selective knockdown of the HSP90 cytosolic isoforms alpha and beta is sufficient to reduce mutant huntingtin protein levels in vitro. Chemotype-dependent binding conformations of HSP90 alpha/beta appear to strongly influence isoform selectivity. The rational design of HSP90 alpha/beta inhibitors selective versus the mitochondrial (TRAP1) and endoplasmic reticulum (GRP94) isoforms offers a potential mitigating strategy for mechanism-based toxicities. Better tolerated HSP90 inhibitors would be attractive for targeting chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington's disease. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
