Mammalian cells are different from plant and microbial cells, having no exterior cell walls for protection. Environmental assaults can easily damage or destroy mammalian cells. Thus, the ability to develop a biomimetic cell wall (BCW) on their plasma mem
It was demonstrated that inhibition of Ddl directly produces a significant loss of strength of the bacterial cell wall and, as a result, a more likely disruption of the bacterial cell [11]. Hence, Ddl inhibitors have become attractive agents and hot spots for the development of new ...
Analysis of the toxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs is one of the main tasks of clinical pharmacology. Decreased viability of tumor cells may reflect two important physiological processes, namely the arrest of proliferation associated with disturbances in

While drugs with a large molecular size are unable to cross the BBB, several potential strategies exist to facilitate their delivery into the brain. These include: (A) pharmacologic formulation, such as exosomal encapsulation or cellular carriers for transcytotic transport across BBB; (B) conjugatio...
cell membranes more easily—a property useful in designingchemotherapeuticand pharmacological drugs. For two molecules of the same partition coefficient, the one of greatermolecular weight, or size, will in general cross the membrane more slowly. In fact, even molecules with very lowpartitioncoefficient...
Table 4 Advances in the research of high-value natural drugs and precursor compounds Full size table Semi-synthetic artemisinin is a successful case of SB-based synthesis. Artemisinin, a highly effective antimalarial drug, is a sesquiterpene lactone, which is naturally obtained from Artemisia annua ...
Promotion of Cell Wall Synthesis by lndolylacetic Acid IT is widely believed that the increase in cell wall synthesis which occurs when growth of plant cells is promoted by auxin is neither a dire~t consequence of hormone action nor a causal factor m cell enlarge- ment, but is induced ...
