The present invention aims to dramatically increase the effect of hepatic arterial chemoembolization by developing human serum albumin-based nanoparticles, which are bioproteins that effectively carry Adriamycin in place of Adriamycin, an anticancer agent used in hepatic arterial chemoembolization. The human serum albumin nanoparticles carrying the Adriamycin not only intensively infiltrate the drug effectively into the cells but also have a synergistic effect that can induce a long-term therapeutic effect by utilizing the effect of continuous drug release from the particles.

Provided herein are methods, systems, kits, and compositions useful for determining small molecule-protein interactions and protein-protein interactions. The photo-click tags provided herein can be conjugated to a small molecule or amino acid analog to provide compounds that can be integrated into a protein through photo-conjugation, allowing for identification of a small molecule-protein interaction or protein-protein interaction to elucidate the small molecules mechanism of action or the protein targeted by the small molecule. In some embodiments, the photo-click tags comprise a photo-conjugation moiety and a click chemistry handle, allowing for the attachment of various functional groups (e.g., affinity tags) to the small molecule or amino acid analog.

The present invention relates to novel 5HT receptor modulators, such as compounds of the general Formula (I) and general Formula (II):

##STR00001##

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Methods of using the compounds include, for example, modulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor subtypes, including 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor and/or 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor, and treatment of a condition or disease where the treatment is associated with the modulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor and/or 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor.
