Integrated mass spectrometry imaging and single-cell transcriptome atlas strategies provide novel insights into taxoid biosynthesis and transport in Taxus mairei stems.

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2023
Taxol, which is an widely used important chemotherapeutic agent, which was originally isolated from Taxus stem barks. However, the precise distribution of taxoids and the transcriptional regulation of taxoid biosynthesis across Taxus stems are largely ...

Docetaxel

open access: yes, 1997
Paclitaxel was the first taxoid to become available. It was found to be an active anticancer agent but with significant toxicity. Docetaxel is a semisynthetic taxoid and the next of a fast-expanding class of drugs.

Synthesis and evaluation of anticancer activities of 2- or 4-substituted 3-(N-benzyltriazolylmethyl)-13α-oestrone derivatives

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
2- or 4-Substituted 3-N-benzyltriazolylmethyl-13α-oestrone derivatives were synthesised via bromination of ring A and subsequent microwave-assisted, Pd-catalysed C(sp2)–P couplings. The antiproliferative activities of the newly synthesised brominated and

Electrosynthetic C−O Bond Activation in Alcohols and Alcohol Derivatives

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 135, Issue 4, January 23, 2023., 2023
Deoxygenative transformations of alcohols and their derivatives are often challenging due to the thermodynamic penalty associated with the cleavage of the C−O bond. This Review includes preparative protocols and their mechanistic aspects for the activation and functionalization of C−O bonds, detailing direct and indirect electrosynthetic methods, as ...

Electroreductive Deoxygenative C−H and C−C Bond Formation from Non‐Derivatized Alcohols Fueled by Anodic Borohydride Oxidation

open access: yesChemElectroChem, Volume 10, Issue 22, November 14, 2023., 2023
Herein, electroreductive C−OH bond activation and subsequent deoxygenative C−H and C−C bond formation is demonstrated for non‐derivatized benzylic and propargylic alcohols. The cathodic transformations proceed via carbanions, formed via radical‐polar crossover, and are efficiently balanced by anodic oxidation of borohydride additives, a strategy that ...

Synthesis and Structure‐Activity Relationship Studies of C(13)‐Desmethylene‐(−)‐Zampanolide Analogs

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 29, Issue 36, June 27, 2023., 2023
Reduced or demethylated variants of a C(13)‐desmethylene congener of the marine microtubule stabilizer (−)‐zampanolide have been prepared by HWE‐based macrocyclization and stereoselective construction of the hemiaminal center in the side chain. While all modifications led to reduced growth inhibitory activity, the 2,3‐dihydro and the C(17)‐desmethyl ...

Docetaxel Loaded in Copaiba Oil-Nanostructured Lipid Carriers as a Promising DDS for Breast Cancer Treatment

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Breast cancer is the neoplasia of highest incidence in women worldwide. Docetaxel (DTX), a taxoid used to treat breast cancer, is a BCS-class-IV compound (low oral bioavailability, solubility and intestinal permeability). Nanotechnological strategies can

Response of Patients with Taxane‐Refractory Advanced Urothelial Cancer to Enfortumab Vedotin, a Microtubule‐Disrupting Agent

open access: yesCase Reports in Urology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Enfortumab vedotin (EV), a nectin‐4‐directed antibody conjugated to monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), has been approved for patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma (aUC) previously treated with platinum‐based chemotherapy and immune inhibitors. Taxane agents and MMAE share antitumor mechanisms through microtubule disruption, thus raising a notable ...

Perspective of a new diagnostic for human trichomonosis

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2003
Several diagnostic techniques have been employed for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis. Microtubules constitute the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells and are sensitive to antimitotic drugs, such as Taxol (paclitaxel).

Activities and Molecular Mechanisms of Diterpenes, Diterpenoids, and Their Derivatives in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Diterpenes and their derivatives have many biological activities, including anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. To date, several diterpenes, diterpenoids, and their laboratory‐derived products have been demonstrated for antiarthritic activities.
