Multidrug-resistant (MDR) cancer cells have been shown to have an accumulation of glucosylceramide (GlcCer). In this study, we aim at localizing, at subcellular level, where these lipids accumulate. Neutral lipids and phospholipid containing organelles have been identified using confocal

A divergent strategy is described for synthesis of the novel phosphatidylinositols 1-3. The synthetic approach commences from benzyl-protected methyl 6-iodo-6-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, which undergoes zinc-mediated reductive fragmentation followed by vinyl Grignard addition and ring-closing

The resistance to therapy is a major clinical challenge for advanced stage breast cancer. Identification of novel potential therapeutic targets is needed to overcome chemoresistance. In this work, we identified a target that was critically involved in breast cancer growth and chemoresistance. We
