The normal operation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is critical for cells and organisms. However, ER stress, caused by imbalanced protein folding, occurs frequently, which perturbs the function of
Herein we detail the discovery of a series of parthenolide dimers as activators of PKM2 and evaluation of their anti-GBM activities. The most promising compound 5 showed high potency to activate PKM2
