DOI: 10.1021/acs.biomac.3c00194

Abstract: Acid-degradable polyrotaxanes (PRXs) containing threading β-cyclodextrins (β-CDs) are promising candidates for therapeutic applications of β-CDs in metabolic diseases with cholesterol overload or imbalance. To improve cellular uptake specificity and efficiency of PRXs in hepatocytes, N-acetyl-d-galactosamine… read more here.

Abstract: In the retinal pigment epithelium of patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), excess N-retinylidene-N-retinylethanolamine (A2E), a dimer of all-trans-retinal, accumulats to induce inflammatory cytokine secretion and phototoxic effects. Therefore, the reduction of intracellular A2E is… read more here.
