Latest Patent Applications
Masaki Sone's notable patent application is titled "CAGED COMPOUND WHICH CAN BE PHOTOACTIVATED SELECTIVELY FOR CELL TYPES." The objective of this invention is to provide a caged compound that can be photoactivated selectively for specific target cell types. This compound is represented by the general formula K-Q-X, which is prepared by binding a bioactive substance X, a photocleavable protecting group Q, and a compound K. The compound K can be an enzyme substrate that is dissociated from Q-X through an enzyme reaction. The protecting group Q is designed to be photocleaved by light of a specific wavelength, allowing for the dissociation from X. When Q is bound to X, the substance does not express bioactivity, but once Q is dissociated, X can exhibit its bioactive properties. This innovative approach allows for targeted activation of bioactive substances, enhancing their effectiveness in biological applications.
Conclusion
Masaki Sone's work in developing photoactivatable compounds represents a significant advancement in the field of bioactive substances. His innovative approach has the potential to improve the precision of treatments in various biological contexts.
