Senlian Hong et al.
Wnt/β-catenin signaling regulates critical, context-dependent transcription in numerous physiological events. Among the well-documented mechanisms affecting Wnt/β-catenin activity, modification of N-glycans by L-fucose is the newest and t...
Pharmacological Targeting of Vacuolar H+-ATPase via Subunit V1G Combats Multidrug-Resistant Cancer [0.03%]
靶向作用于V1G亚基的 vacuolar H+-ATP酶治疗多药耐药癌症

Yuezhou Wang et al.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer remains a major challenge for the success of chemotherapy. Natural products have been a rich source for the discovery of drugs against MDR cancers. Here, we applied high-throughput cytotoxicity screening...
Macrocyclic Peptide-Mediated Blockade of the CD47-SIRPα Interaction as a Potential Cancer Immunotherapy [0.03%]
环肽介导的CD47-SIRPα相互作用阻断作为癌症免疫治疗的潜力

Tessa Keenan et al.
Fluorinated sugar-1-phosphates are of emerging importance as intermediates in the chemical and biocatalytic synthesis of modified oligosaccharides, as well as probes for chemical biology. Here we present a systematic study of the activity o...
Monitoring Allosteric Interactions with CXCR4 Using NanoBiT Conjugated Nanobodies [0.03%]
利用NanoBiT连接的纳米体监测CXCR4上的别构相互作用
