Abstract excerpt
Heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans (HSGAGs) are involved in tumor cell growth, adhesion, invasion, and migration, due to their interactions with various proteins. In this study, novel HSGAG-mimetic compounds (KI compounds) were designed and synthesized. As a result of cell-based assays, KI-105 was found to exert potent inhibitory activities against migration and invasion of human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells. The...
