To overcome this shortcoming, novel drug candidatesnand delivery systems are urgently needed. Herein, a therapeutic coppernpolypyridine complex encapsulated in natural nanocarrier apoferritinnis reported. The generated nanoparticles showed higher cytotoxicityntoward various (drug-resistant) cancer cell lines than noncancerousncells. The study of the mechanism revealed that the compound triggersncell autophagy-dependent apoptosis. Promisingly, upon injection ofnthe nanodrug conjugate into the bloodstream of a mouse model bearingna multidrug-resistant colon tumor, a strong tumor growth inhibitionneffect was observed.
