Chemotherapy is the standard of care for bladder cancer after transurethral resection of the tumor. However, the rapid excretion of clinically used formulations of anticancer drugs make the common intravesical instillation chemotherapy far from efficient. Therefore, improving the muco-adhesion and penetrability of chemotherapeutic drugs became the key factors in the post-surgery treatment of superficial bladder cancers. Here, a reduction sensitive vehicle was developed to deliver the reactive oxygen species activated prodrug of gambogic acid for treatment of orthotopic bladder cancer. The positively charged chitosan can significantly enhance the adhesion and permeability of prodrug within the bladder wall. Moreover, by utilizing the different glutathione and ROS level between cancer cells and normal cells, the dual responsive nanoparticle can selectively and rapidly deliver drug in bladder cancer cells, and thus can significantly inhibit the proliferation of bladder cancer cells in an orthotopic superficial bladder cancer model without causing damage to normal cells. This work demonstrates that the smart prodrug nanomedicine may act as a promising drug-delivery system for local chemotherapy of bladder cancer with unprecedented clinical benefits.

Malaria is still considered as the major parasitic disease and the development of artemisinin resistance does not improve this alarming situation. Based on the recent identification of relevant malaria targets in the artemisinin resistance context, novel

The use of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) is an effective and increasingly widely used approach for solubility enhancement of drugs and drug candidates with poor aqueous solubility. Successful molecular dispersion of drugs in polymer matrices requires new polymers that are designed to meet all ASD requirements, including drug release and prevention of drug recrystallization in storage or from solution. We describe herein design and synthesis of a new series of cellulose ω-carboxyalkanoates for ASDs, by reaction of cellulose with long-chain diacids that have been monoprotected as benzyl esters at one end, and monoactivated as acid chlorides at the other. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of these cellulose ω-carboxyesters exceed ambient temperature by at least 50 C, providing a sufficient ΔT to prevent drug mobility and crystallization. Cellulose acetate suberates and sebacates prepared in this way are extraordinary solution crystal growth inhibitors for the poorly soluble anti-HIV drug ritonavir. These new cellulose ω-carboxyesters have strong potential as ASD polymers for enhancement of drug solubility and bioavailability.

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play important roles in cell growth, cell differentiation, cell apoptosis, and many other cellular processes. The inhibition of different classes of HDACs has been shown to be closely related to the therapy of cancers and other diseases. In this study, a series of novel CRBN-recruiting HDAC PROTACs were designed and synthesized by linking hydroxamic acid and benzamide with lenalidomide, pomalidomide, and CC-220 through linkers of different lengths and types. One of these PROTACs, denoted 21a, with a new benzyl alcohol linker, exhibited comparably excellent HDAC inhibition activity on different HDAC classes, acceptable degradative activity, and even better in vitro anti-proliferative activities on the MM.1S cell line compared with SAHA. Moreover, we report for the first time the benzyl alcohol linker, which could also offer the potential to be used to develop more types of potent PROTACs for targeting more proteins of interest (POI).

Glucose-responsive insulin conjugates that contain one or more trisaccharides are provided. Such insulin conjugates may display a pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) profile that is responsive to the systemic concentrations of a saccharide such as glucose or alpha-methylmannose, even when administered to a subject in need thereof in the absence of an exogenous multivalent saccharide-binding molecule.

We report a unified total synthesis of five bufadienolides: bufalin (1), bufogenin B (2), bufotalin (3), vulgarobufotoxin (4), and 3-(N-succinyl argininyl) bufotalin (5). After the steroidal ABCD ring 8 was produced, the D ring was cross-coupled with a 2-pyrone moiety and stereoselectively epoxidized to generate 6. TMSOTf promoted a stereospecific 1,2-hydride shift from 6 to establish the β-oriented 2-pyrone of 19. Functional group manipulations from 19 furnished 1-5, which potently inhibited cancer cell growth.

The tris(macrocycle)s that function in bilayer membranes as ion channels have recently shown versatile new applications such as antibiotic synergists and as agents for direct injection chemotherapy. This report records the development of new and versatile approaches to these molecules that produce significantly better overall yields for a group of previously reported hydraphiles having spacer chains ranging from octylene to hexadecylene.

Reaction of dicarboxylic acid with benzyl alcohol under the microwave irradiation proceeds faster as compared to the thermal conditions. The main reaction products are alkyl dicarboxylates, and the monoester and dibenzyl ether are formed as the side products. A proposal about the nature of the nonthermal effect in the reactions stimulated by the microwave irradiation is considered.
