The SAR of a series of new epothilone A derivatives with a 2-substituted-1,3-oxazoline moiety trans-fused to the C12-C13 bond of the deoxy macrocycle have been investigated with regard to tubulin polymerization induction and cancer cell growth inhibition. Significant differences in antiproliferative activity were observed between different analogs, depending on the nature of the substituent at the 2-position of the oxazoline ring. The most potent compounds showed comparable activity with the natural product epothilone A. Modeling studies provide a preliminary rationale for the observed SAR.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) presents a substantial clinical challenge due to the limited understanding of its genetic underpinnings. Here we conduct the largest scale whole-exome sequencing association study of NPC to date, encompassing 6,969 NPC cases and 7,100 controls. We unveil 3 germline genetic variants linked to NPC susceptibility: a common rs2276868 in RPL14, a rare rs5361 in SELE, and a common rs1050462 in HLA-B.

Ion channels play a crucial role in cardiac functions, and their activities exhibit dynamic changes during heart development. However, the precise function of ion channels in human heart development remains elusive. In this study, we utilized human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) as a model to mimic the process of human embryonic heart development.

In this report, we developed novel chlorin/arylaminoquinazoline conjugates for targeted photodynamic therapy of cancer. The synthesized photosensitizers consisted of chlorin- metallocomplexes (Zn, In, or Pd) conjugated with arylaminoquinazoline ligands with high affinity for epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR). Additionally, the selectivity and antitumor properties of the conjugates were investigated in the EGFR-expressing A431 human tumor cell line .

Apple pectin (AP), a well-established dietary fiber, offers significant health benefits, particularly in immunomodulation. However, the structure-activity relationship (SAR) in this context remains poorly understood. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of varying degrees of esterification (DE) on AP's SAR in immunomodulatory activity.
