Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is considered an attractive therapeutic target for cancer treatment due to its high expression in many cancers. In this study, four potent Hsp90 inhibitors (HPs 1-4) were identified using structure-based virtual screening. Among them, HP-4 exhibited the most potent inhi...
