OBJECTIVE
As novel therapeutic agents relevant to colon cancer therapy are explored continuously, we tested 4 R2edda-type ligand precursors O,O'-dialkyl esters of (S,S)-ethylenediamine-N,N'-di-2-(4-methyl)pentanoic acid (L1.2HCl-L4.2HCl) and corresponding palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes
BW12C (5-[2-formyl-3-hydroxypenoxyl] pentanoic acid) is an agent which stabilises oxyhaemoglobin and thus reduces oxygen delivery to tissues. It is of interest as a possible potentiator of bioreductive agents and/or hyperthermia. The increases in radiobiological hypoxic fraction of RIF-1 and KHT
Caspases, or cysteinyl-aspartate specific proteases, are major contributing enzymes in inflammation. Caspases are highly specific cysteine proteases closely involved in inflammatory responses that are associated with programmed cell death, or apoptosis. Inappropriate regulation of cell death,
BW12C (5-[2-formyl-3-hydroxypenoxyl] pentanoic acid) stabilizes oxyhaemoglobin, causing a reversible left-shift of the oxygen saturation curve (OSC) and tissue hypoxia. The activity of mitomycin C (MMC) is enhanced by hypoxia. In this phase II study, 17 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
Liver cancer is the fastest growing cause of cancer deaths in the United States due to its aggressiveness and lack of effective therapies. The current preclinical study examines valeric acid (pentanoic acid [C5H10O2]), one of the main compounds of valerian root
The aim of this study was the design and development of a novel de novo drug delivery system for cancer chemotherapy. For this purpose, chitosan (CS) functionalized using phthalic anhydride followed by 4-cyano, 4-[(phenylcarbothioyl) sulfanyl] pentanoic acid as a chain transfer agent (CTA) to afford
Aim: Simultaneous inhibition of MMP-2 and HDAC8 may be an effective strategy to target cancer. Methodology: In continuation of our earlier efforts, a series of substituted pentanoic acids (1-18) were synthesized and checked for their biological activity along with some
Fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibition initiates selective apoptosis of cancer cells both in vivo and in vitro, which may involve malonyl-CoA metabolism. These findings have led to the exploration of malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD) as a potential novel target for cancer treatment. MCD regulates the
Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are two conditions that have many features in common and are referred as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Patients with IBD are predisposed to colorectal cancer. This investigation evaluates the effect of marine mangrove Avicennia marina against acetic
A series of platinum complexes of the form cis-M[PtA2(PC)] (I) has been prepared and tested for antitumor activity in mice. Compounds in this series contain either two monodentate amine ligands (A), such as NH3 or isopropylamine, or one bidentate diamine (A2), such as ethylenediamine,
Valproic acid (2-propyl pentanoic acid) is a drug used for the treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. Although very rare, side effects such as spina bifida and other defects of neural tube closure indicate that valproic acid interferes with developmental regulatory pathways. Recently obtained
To avoid poly(ethylene glycol)-related issues of nanomedicines such as accelerated blood clearance, fully N-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylamide (HPMAm)-based polymeric micelles decorated with biotin for drug delivery were designed. To this end, a biotin-functionalized chain transfer agent (CTA),
Stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems (DDSs) are expected to realize site-specific drug release and kill cancer cells selectively. In this study, a pH-responsive micelle was designed utilizing the pH-sensitivity of borate bonds formed between dopamine and boronic acid. First, methyl (polyethylene
