Unlocking the chemotherapeutic potential of beta-aminovinyl ketones and related compounds.

abstract：:We recently reported a vitamin B(12) (B(12)) based insulin conjugate that produced significantly decreased blood glucose levels in diabetic STZ-rat models. The results of this study posed a fundamental question, namely what implications does B(12) conjugation have on insulin's interaction with the insulin receptor (IR...
