Novel multi-binding compounds (agents) are disclosed which bind cell membrane transporters including ion channels, molecular transporters and ion pumps. The compounds of this invention comprise from 2 to 10 ligands each of which can bind to such cellular transporters to modulate the biological processes/functions thereof. Each of the ligands is covalently attached to a linker (framework) to provide for a multi-binding compound. The linker is selected such that the multi-binding compound exhibits increased modulation of the biological processes/functions of the transporter as compared to the aggregate of the individual ligand units made available for binding to the transporter.
本发明揭示了一种新型多重结合化合物(试剂),其结合细胞膜转运体,包括离子通道、分子转运体和离子泵。本发明的化合物包括2到10个配体,每个配体都可以结合到这些细胞转运体上,以调节其生物过程/功能。每个配体都共价地连接到一个连接器(框架)上,以提供多重结合化合物。所选择的连接器是为了使多重结合化合物相比可用于结合转运体的单个配体单元的聚合体表现出增强的调节转运体的生物过程/功能的特性。
