We describe the synthesis and characterization of two acetazolamide derivatives containing either a charged fluorophore or an albumin-binding moiety, which restrict binding to carbonic anhydrase IX and XII present on tumor cells. In vivo studies showed the preferentially targeting of

Wild-type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (Wip1) negatively regulates several tumour suppressor and DNA damage response pathways. However, the impact of Wip1 on haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) homeostasis and aging remains unknown. Here we show that Wip1 is highly expressed in HSCs

Novel 3,5-bis(benzylidene)-1-[3-(2-hydroxyethylthio)propanoyl]piperidin-4-ones (3a-e) display potent cytotoxicity and a preferential lethality toward various neoplasms compared to some normal cells. The corresponding sulfonic acid analogues 5a-e and an isostere 4 demonstrated substantially lower activity. The leads 3d and 3e possess very high

The synthesis and antiviral evaluation of a series of C5-(1,4- and 1,5-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazolo)-nucleoside derivatives is described. The key steps of this synthesis are regioselective Huisgen's 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, using either copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or ruthenium-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (RuAAC) under microwave activation.

The 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidones 1 contain the 1,5-diaryl-3-oxo-1,4-pentadienyl pharmacophore which is considered to interact at a complementary binding site in susceptible neoplasms. The hypothesis was formulated that the presence of an acyl group attached to the piperidyl nitrogen atom in series 1
