Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) plays a primary role in regulating the activity of many signaling molecules. Increased FAK expression has been associated in a series of cellular processes like cell migration and survival. FAK inhibition by an anti cancer agent is critical. Therefore, it is of interest
Novel solanesylpiperazinotriamines as well as their N-aryl-substituted analogs were synthesized starting from solanesol through a multistep procedure. Their structures were confirmed by IR, (1)H NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. The preliminary results indicated that these novel derivatives were
Solanesol is a non-cyclic terpene alcohol composed of nine isoprene units that mainly accumulates in solanaceous plants. Solanesol plays an important role in the interactions between plants and environmental factors such as pathogen infections and moderate-to-high temperatures. Additionally, it is a
We prepared an amphiphilic redox-responsive conjugate based on mPEGylated solanesol, solanesyl poly(ethylene glycol) dithiodipropionate (SPDP), along with its inert counterpart solanesyl poly(ethylene glycol) succinate (SPGS), which self-assembled in aqueous solution to form redox-responsive
Metabolites of a large number of inert drug carriers can cause long-term exogenous biological toxicity. Therefore, carriers with simultaneous therapeutic effects may be a good choice for drug delivery. Herein, a series of pharmacologically active solanesol derivatives were synthesized and
The aim of the present study is to take advantage of the unique property of polyisoprenoid chains to adopt a compact molecular conformation and to use these natural and biocompatible lipids as nanocarriers of drugs to deliver siRNA. A new chemical strategy is applied here to conjugate squalene (SQ)
