Prolonged activation of innate immune pathways by a polyvalent STING agonist

TL;DR: In this article, a polyvalent STING agonist, a pH-sensitive polymer bearing a seven-membered ring with a tertiary amine (PC7A), was shown to stimulate the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by binding to a noncompetitive STING surface site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycarbonate-based ultra-pH sensitive nanoparticles improve therapeutic window.

TL;DR: A series of degradable ultra-pH sensitive (dUPS) polymers that amplify small acidic pH changes to efficacious therapeutic outputs are reported that open up opportunities in pH-targeted drug and protein therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small-molecule inhibitors of breast cancer-related targets: Potential therapeutic agents for breast cancer.

TL;DR: The interplay between these targets and breast cancer is reviewed, the progress of current research on small molecule inhibitors of these anti-breast cancer targets is summarized, and the structural and theoretical basis for designing novel anti-Breast cancer agents is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative Study of Solution Properties of Amphiphilic 8-Shaped Cyclic-(Polystyrene-b-Poly(acrylic acid))2 and Its Linear Precursor

TL;DR: In this paper, an amphiphilic 8-shaped cyclic-(polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid))2 with two rings and its linear precursor was successfully prepared by a combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and click chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Degradation Kinetics of Model Hyperbranched Chains with Uniform Subchains and Controlled Locations of Cleavable Disulfide Linkages

TL;DR: In this paper, a tetra-functional initiator with one alkyne, one disulfide linkage, and two bromine groups was used to make model hyperbranched structure with uniform subchains and controlled locations of cleavable linkages.
