Abstract
Senolytic and anti-inflammatory prodrugs are provided, which are designed from a cytotoxic agent, by chemically modifying the cytotoxic agent to incorporate a site cleavable by SA-β-gal following delivery of the prodrug in vivo, to release the active parent drug. The prodrug includes a galactose-based moiety, which is preferably acetylated, and benzyl oxy carboxy group and a cytotoxic agent moiety. The selenolytic prodrug is used to selectively kill one or more senescent cells and/or reduce an acute or chronic inflammatory response in a subject in need thereof, by administering to the subject therapeutically effective amount of the senolytic prodrugs. The disclosed compositions can be used to reduce one or more symptoms associated with a Senescence-associated disease or disorder or an inflammatory disorder, for example, a virus-mediated inflammation, in a subject.
