Esters of 4'-demethyl-4-deoxypodophyllotoxin (DDPT) with alkanoic acids and alkanedioic acids were prepared and tested for cytotoxic and antitumor activity. Among 19 esters, esters of propanoic acid, tetradecanedioic acid, 13-carboxyundecanoic acid, and hexadecanedioic acid improved the antitumor activity compared with that

Previous work in this laboratory indicated that sulfur-substituted fatty acid analogues, 1.10-bis(carboxymethylthio)decane and alkylthioacetic acid, both non-beta-oxidizable compounds, and the beta-oxidizable alkylthiopropionic acid (1) caused, to different extents, dose-related hepatomegaly and proliferation of peroxisomes and enhanced peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation.

Cytochrome P450BM-3 preferentially oxidized fatty acids with terminal double or triple bonds to the omega-2 hydroxylated fatty acids rather than, respectively, to the epoxide or diacid metabolites. The enzyme is inactivated during catalytic turnover of long, terminally unsaturated fatty acids

Development of a (99m)Tc-fatty acid analogue is of interest, as (99m)Tc is logistically advantageous over the cyclotron-produced (11)C and (123)I. Synthesis of a 16 carbon fatty acid derivative and its radiolabeling with the novel [(99m)TcN(PNP)](2+) core is described here. Hexadecanedioic

Serum and plasma are the major sources of human material for clinical molecular diagnostics and drug discovery. However, due to the high abundance of some proteins, of which serum albumin (SA) is most prominent, lower-abundance proteins often remain undetectable in
