  • Patent number: 10711005
    Abstract: Compound I and a compound II as well as preparation methods therefor and use thereof are disclosed. A newly synthesized compound of formula I is capable of stimulating congenital immunity and cellular immunity for tumor resistance while greatly improving the antitumor effect of ethacrynic acid (EA), and thus an integrated synergistic anti-tumor dual-immunity drug design is explored. The immune response mechanism for resisting melanoma of the compound as shown in the formula I is demonstrated. A compound that is as shown in a formula II and is prepared from the compound of formula I and ROR1 by means of covalency markedly slows down the growth of subcutaneously transplanted mammary cancer tumor, such that the immune response mechanism, for treating the mammary cancer, of the compound as shown in the formula II is demonstrated.

  • Patent number: 8378044
    Abstract: Provided is a low-cost, environmentally friendly living radical polymerization catalyst having high activity. The catalyst is used for a living radical polymerization method, and contains a central element consisting of oxygen and at least one halogen atom bound to the central element. Furthermore, an alcohol compound can be used as a catalyst precursor. By polymerizing a monomer in the presence of the catalyst, a polymer having narrow molecular weight distribution can be obtained, and the cost of the living radical polymerization can be remarkably reduced. The present invention is significantly more environmentally friendly and economically excellent than conventional living radical polymerization methods, due to advantages of the catalyst such as low toxicity of the catalyst, low amount of the catalyst necessary, high solubility of the catalyst, mild reaction conditions, and no coloration/no odor (which do not require a post-treatment for a molded article), and the like.

  • Publication number: 20120172591
    Abstract: Methods of inhibiting phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase delta isoform (PI3K?) activity, and methods of treating diseases, such as disorders of immunity and inflammation, in which PI3K? plays a role in leukocyte function are disclosed. Preferably, the methods employ active agents that selectively inhibit PI3K?, while not significantly inhibiting activity of other PI3K isoforms. Compounds are provided that inhibit PI3K? activity, including compounds that selectively inhibit PI3K? activity. Methods of using PI3K? inhibitory compounds to inhibit cancer cell growth or proliferation are also provided. Accordingly, the invention provides methods of using PI3K? inhibitory compounds to inhibit PI3K?-mediated processes in vitro and in vivo.
