Targeting ligands facilitate cell specific drug delivery and improve pharmaceutical properties. Herein, we designed two ligand drug conjugates by conjugating GlcNAc (N-acetylglucosamine) with atorvastatin. These two conjugates, termed G-AT and G-K-AT, exhibited enhanced water solubility and cellular uptake. Moreover, both
Targeted drug delivery platforms can increase the concentration of drugs in specific cell populations, reduce adverse effects, and hence improve the therapeutic effect of drugs. Herein, we designed two conjugates by installing the targeting ligand GalNAc (N-acetylgalactosamine) onto atorvastatin (AT).
Girardinia diversifolia, also known as Himalayan nettle, is a perennial herb used in Nepal to make fiber as well as in traditional medicine for the treatment of several diseases. To date, phytochemical studies and biological assays on this plant are
