Abstract
This doctoral thesis explores the discovery and characterization of two novel small molecules, designated as KS100 and (R,S’)-MNF, with potential anti-cancer properties. The study encompasses a comprehensive investigation into the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-cancer effects of these compounds, as well as their therapeutic potential in preclinical models. These findings highlight the potential of KS100 and (R,S’)-MNF as lead candidates for cancer therapy, paving the way for further preclinical development and clinical translation.
