Design and synthesis of new polycyclic compounds with potential anticancer activity
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-02-21)p53 is best known as a tumor suppressor that transcriptionally regulates, in response to cellular stresses such as DNA damage or oncogene activation, the expression of various target genes that mediate cell-cycle arrest, ... -
The design and synthesis of novel N-heterocyclic compounds, and their evaluation of anti-cancer and anti-viral activity
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-05-21)The thesis entitled “The design and synthesis of novel N-heterocyclic compounds, and their evaluation of anti-cancer and anti-viral activity" is divided into three chapters. The title of the thesis clearly reflects the ... -
Design and synthesis of peptides involved in the inhibition of influenza virus infection
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2017-03-28)The main purpose of the present research project was the identification of peptide capable of exercising potent anti-influenza activity. We identified bovine lactoferrin (bLf) as drug target, a multifunctional glycoprotein ... -
Design and synthesis of peptides that modulate apoptotic process.
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-11-17)Oncogenic activation of tyrosine kinases is a common feature in cancer, and its regulation represents an excellent antitumoral target. Tyrosine phosphorylation is also controlled by protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). ... -
Design and synthesis of “small molecules” as antiviral and radiotracer agents
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-03-28)The present Ph.D. project was divided into different work parts, in a way that helps to understand and define the goals of this project. In particular: I) Design, synthesis and evaluation of antiviral activity of Arbidol ... -
Design e sintesi di analoghi delle azumammidi, potenti inibitori degli enzimi HDACs
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-03-07)Le azumammidi sono cinque ciclopeptidi di origine marina, isolate nel 2003 da Fusetani et al dalla spugna Mycale izuensis e brevettate dalla Yamanouchi Pharmaceutical. L'interesse destato da questi metaboliti secondari ... -
