Triptolide Derivatives for Modulation of Apoptosis and Immunosuppression

摘要

Variously substituted carbonate and carbamate derivatives of triptolide compounds have good aqueous solubility and convert to biologically active compounds in vivo, at a rate which can be modulated by varying the substitution on the prodrug. The prodrugs are useful as immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory and anticancer agents.
