Abstract
The development of novel therapeutic strategies enabling the selective destruction of tumors while sparing healthy tissues is of great interest to improve the efficacy of cancer chemotherapy. In this context, we designed a β-glucuronidase-responsive albumin-binding prodrug programmed to release a potent Isocombretastatin A-4 analog within the tumor microenvironment. When injected at a non-toxic dose in mice bearing orthotopic triple-negative mammary tumors, this prodrug produced a significant anticancer activity, therefore offering a valuable alternative to the systemic administration of the parent drug.
在保留健康组织的情况下选择性破坏肿瘤的新治疗策略的发展对提高癌症化疗的疗效具有重要意义。在这种情况下,我们设计了一种β-葡萄糖醛酸酶反应性白蛋白结合前药,该前药被编程为在肿瘤微环境中释放一种有效的Isocombretastatin a -4类似物。当以无毒剂量注射到患有原位三阴性乳腺肿瘤的小鼠时,该前药产生了显著的抗癌活性,因此为母体药物的全身给药提供了有价值的替代方案。
期刊介绍:
Quality research. Outstanding publications. With an impact factor of 3.124 (2019), ChemMedChem is a top journal for research at the interface of chemistry, biology and medicine. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
ChemMedChem publishes primary as well as critical secondary and tertiary information from authors across and for the world. Its mission is to integrate the wide and flourishing field of medicinal and pharmaceutical sciences, ranging from drug design and discovery to drug development and delivery, from molecular modeling to combinatorial chemistry, from target validation to lead generation and ADMET studies. ChemMedChem typically covers topics on small molecules, therapeutic macromolecules, peptides, peptidomimetics, and aptamers, protein-drug conjugates, nucleic acid therapies, and beginning 2017, nanomedicine, particularly 1) targeted nanodelivery, 2) theranostic nanoparticles, and 3) nanodrugs.
