Compounds of formula (I): ##STR00001##
where ##STR00002##
n, R.sup.1, R.sup.4a, R.sup.4b, R.sup.5, R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 are defined herein, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are described herein. The disclosed compounds have activity as SHIP1 modulators, and thus may be used to treat any of a variety of diseases, disorders or conditions that would benefit from SHIP1 modulation. Compositions comprising a compound of formula (I) in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent are also disclosed, as are methods of SHIP1 modulation by administration of such compounds to an animal in need thereof.

The present disclosure provides enynes, end-functionalized polymers, conjugates, methods of preparation, compositions, kits, and methods of use. The conjugates comprise at least (1) a peptide (e.g., an antibody), protein, nucleoprotein, mucoprotein, lipoprotein, glycoprotein, or polynucleotide; and (2) a polymer comprising a pharmaceutical agent. The conjugates may be useful in delivering (e.g., targeted delivering) the pharmaceutical agent to a subject in need thereof or cell or treating, preventing, or diagnosing a disease.
