    Abstract: The invention relates to the synthesis of a second-generation camptothecin glucuronide prodrug (BQC-G) of a potent anticancer camptothecin derivative 5,6-dihydro-4H-benzo[de]quinoline-camptothecin (BQC). BQC-G was over 4000 times more water soluble than BQC, displayed good stability in human plasma and was an excellent substrate for enzymatic hydrolysis by bacterial and human ?-glucuronidases. BQC-G was about 30 times less toxic than BQC, but was as toxic as BQC after hydrolysis of the glucuronide moiety by ?-glucuronidase. In the presence of human serum albumin, BQC-G displayed lower cytotoxicity (IC50=1080 nM) but could be activated by ?-glucuronidase to display potent activity (IC50=13.3 nM).

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound The instant invention relates to a compound of formulae (I A), (I B), (X A), (X B), (Y A) or (Y B), wherein R? represents and R? represents hydrogen, hydroxy, C1-C7alkoxy, C1-C8-alkanoyloxy, or R5R4N—CO—O—, where R4 and R5 independently are C1-C7alkyl or phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by a substitutent selected from C1-C7alkyl, C1-C7alkoxy, halogen and trifluoromethyl and where R4 additionally is hydrogen; or R4 and R5 together represent C3-C6alkylene, in free form or in form of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. Compounds of formulae (I A), (I B), (X A), (X B), (Y A) or (Y B) inhibit DPP-IV (dipeptidyl-peptidase-IV) activity. They are therefore indicated for use as pharmaceuticals in inhibiting DPP-IV and in the treatment of conditions mediated by DPP-IV, such as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, arthritis, obesity, osteoporosis and further conditions of impaired glucose tolerance.

  • Publication number: 20120269766
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to new bifunctional compounds and methods for treating HIV infections. The bifunctional small molecules, generally referred to as ARM-H? function through orthogonal pathways, by inhibiting the gp120-CD4 interaction, and by recruiting anti-DNP antibodies to gp120-expressing cells, thereby preventing cell infection and spread of HIV. It has been shown that ARM-H's bind to gp120 and gp-120 expressing cells competitively with CD4, thereby decreasing viral infectivity as shown by an MT-2 cell assay, the binding leading to formation of a ternary complex by recruiting anti-DNP antibodies to bind thereto, the antibodies present in the ternary complex promoting the complement-dependent destruction of the gp120-expressing cells. Compounds and methods are described herein.

  • Publication number: 20120263625
    Abstract: Antimicrobial molecular conjugates for the treatment and prevention of infectious diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms in human and animals are provided. The key to these conjugates is connecting dihydroxychlorins or ?-functionalized chlorins to carbohydrate moieties. These conjugates are found to be very effective in combating bacterial infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including their resistant strains. Significantly, they are also effective in complex environments, including blood, serum, and other body fluids which are present in patient's body. A method of use to control pathogenic microorganisms in human and animals is also provided.
