Photoactivated cell-killing involving a low molecular weight, donor-acceptor diphenylacetylene (2019)
Journal Article
Chisholm, D., Lamb, R., Pallett, T., Affleck, V., Holden, C., Marrison, J., …Ambler, C. A. (2019). Photoactivated cell-killing involving a low molecular weight, donor-acceptor diphenylacetylene. Chemical Science, 10(17), 4673-4683. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9sc00199a

Photoactivation of photosensitisers can be utilised to elicit the production of ROS, for potential therapeutic applications, including the destruction of diseased tissues and tumours. A novel class of photosensitiser, exemplified by DC324, has been d... Read More about Photoactivated cell-killing involving a low molecular weight, donor-acceptor diphenylacetylene.

Fluorescent retinoic acid analogues as probes for biochemical and intracellular characterization of retinoid signalling pathways (2019)
Journal Article
Chisholm, D., Tomlinson, C., Zhou, G., Holden, C., Affleck, V., Lamb, R., …Pohl, E. (2019). Fluorescent retinoic acid analogues as probes for biochemical and intracellular characterization of retinoid signalling pathways. ACS Chemical Biology, 14(3), 369-377. https://doi.org/10.1021/acschembio.8b00916

Retinoids, such as all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), are endogenous signalling molecules derived from Vitamin A that influ-ence a variety of cellular processes through mediation of transcription events in the cell nucleus. Due to these wide-ranging and... Read More about Fluorescent retinoic acid analogues as probes for biochemical and intracellular characterization of retinoid signalling pathways.
