About Plinabulin
Studies on Plinabulin's method of action indicate that Plinabulin activates GEF-H1, a guanine nucleotide exchange
factor. GEF-H1 activates downstream transduction pathways leading to the activation of the protein c-Jun. Activated c-Jun enters
the nucleus of dendritic cells to upregulate immune-related genes, which contributes to the up-regulation of a series of genes
leading to dendritic cell maturation, T-cell activation and other effects that prevent neutropenia.
