Abstract:
An in vitro method for screening a testing compound to evaluate its potential as a liver drug of the disclosure is provided. The method includes applying the testing compound to cells of an isolated human liver tumor cell line, named as ITRI-H28, measuring a cell viability of the cells and determining the effect of the testing compound on the cells by calculating a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the testing compound.
Abstract:
A linker-drug represented by formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof is provided. In formula (I), C is a conjugator, L is a linker unit, D is a toxin unit, and n is an integer ranging from 1 to 4. The structure of the conjugator is represented by formula (II). In formula (II), X is a leaving group, each of R1 and R2 is independently a single bond or —NH—, and Z is substituted aryl, heteroaryl, linear alkyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, or a combination thereof. The antibody is conjugated to the linker unit through a cysteine residue of the antibody. An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) employing the above linker-drug is also provided.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a biomedical composition, including: a hyaluronic acid; a modified histidine; and a polymer or C4-C20 alkane, wherein the modified histidine and the polymer or C4-C20 alkane are grafted to at least one primary hydroxyl group of the hyaluronic acid to allow the hyaluronic acid to form a hyaluronic acid derivative, wherein a graft ratio of the modified histidine is about 1-100%, and a graft ratio of the polymer or C4-C20 alkane is about 0-40%.
Abstract:
An isolated human liver tumor cell line is provided, which was named as ITRI-H28 and deposited in the Food Industry Research and Development Institute with the accession number BCRC960457 on Dec. 14, 2012. A method of an agent screening is also provided. The method includes providing the isolated human liver tumor cell line ITRI-H28 and adding an interest compound into the ITRI-H28 cell line to determine an effect on the ITRI-H28 cell line.
