A method of non-covalently loading a plant picornavirus is described. The method includes contacting a plant picornavirus in solution with a molar excess of a cargo molecule to load the plant picornavirus with the cargo molecule, and then purifying the loaded plant picornavirus. Examples of cargo molecules include imaging agents, antitumor agents, and antiviral agents. Loaded plant picornaviruses prepared in this manner can be used to delivering cargo molecule to cells.

The present disclosure provides certain tricyclic compounds that are histone methyltransferases G9a and/or GLP inhibitors and are therefore useful for the treatment of diseases treatable by inhibition of G9a and/or GLP such as cancers and hemoglobinopathies (e.g., beta-thalassemia and sickle cell disease). Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and processes for preparing such compounds.

Methods of inhibiting the proliferation of a cancer cell, and treating cancer in an individual are provided. Aspects of the subject methods include contacting a cancer cell with an azapodophyllotoxin derivative, where the contacting is effective to inhibit tubulin polymerization and monoglycerol metabolism to inhibit proliferation of cancer in the cell. In certain cases, the cancer cell is a renal cancer cell (RCC) or a lymphoma cell. Aspects of the methods also include administering to a subject an effective amount of an azapodophyllotoxin derivative to treat the subject for cancer, where the cancer is selected from renal cancer and lymphoma. Also provided is a method of monitoring tumor regression in an individual, and methods of identifying a cancer suppressing compound.
