Abstract

Abstract : Stepwise modification of ovatodiolide revealed a prodrug NMP-diepoxyovatodiolide, which is a very promising candidate for further development of liver-related drugs. Abstract : Stepwise modification of ovatodiolide revealed a prodrug, NMP-diepoxyovatodiolide, which can provide sustained release of an active compound, substantial metabolic stability and a unique accumulation profile in the liver. Besides, NMP-diepoxyovatodiolide demonstrated therapeutic benefits in an acute autoimmune hepatitis mouse model and a broad safety window. Therefore, NMP-diepoxyovatodiolide is a very promising candidate for further development of liver-related drugs.
