The invention provides nitrile-containing protease inhibitors caged to ruthenium compounds. The nitrile-caged ruthenium compounds provide inactivated inhibitors that can be delivered to surface or site for activation, for example, but exposure to light. The invention also provides methods for delivering protease inhibitors to subjects for the therapeutic treatment of conditions such as cancer.
这项发明提供了与
钌化合物结合的含腈基蛋白酶抑制剂。这些腈基蛋白酶抑制剂与
钌化合物结合后形成失活的
抑制剂,可以通过光照等方式被释放到表面或部位进行激活。该发明还提供了将蛋白酶抑制剂传递给受试者以治疗癌症等疾病的方法。
