Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase-1(PARP-1)is a nuclear enzyme involved in the detection and repair of DNA damage.The inhibition of PARP-1 has several potential therapeutic applications for drug discovery.In
A complete set of new phospate-caged photolabile nucleoside phosphoramidites were synthesized,and were then site-specifically incorporated into sense or antisense strands of a siRNA.Single caging modi
Although cisplatin is a promising anti-cancer agent,multifactorial resistance,serious side effects,and general toxicity have limited the use of cisplatin in cancer chemotherapy [1].Therefore,less toxi
The elevation of oxidative stress preferentially in cancer cells by inhibiting thioredoxin reductase(TrxR)and/or enhancing reactive oxygen species(ROS)has emerged as an effective strategy for selectiv
The increasing multi-drug resistance has become a major threat to the public health [1].Over-expression of multidrug efflux pumps is one of the major mechanisms of drug resistance in bacteria [2].AcrB
Currently,chiral non-natural tailor-made amino acids are key structural units in the development of new generation of peptide-based pharmaceuticals of high impact on healthcare industry.Synthesis of c
