Light-activatable cytostatic compounds

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Making cytostatic compounds selective is a big challenge. In the past 20 years, my group has worked on making DNA and RNA light-activatable in order to regulate their biological activity with exact control over space, time and dose. Latest progress in mice, neuronal tissue and human blood have made us confident that nucleoside-based cytostatic compounds could be regulated in a similar way. With this project, we want to try to transfer our knowledge now to this class of substances.
