Abstract The therapeutic index for chemotherapeutic drugs is determined in part by systemic toxicity, so strategies dose intensification to improve efficacy must also address tolerability. In addressing this issue, we have investigated a novel combinatorial strategy of reconstructing drug molecule and using sequential drug-induced nanoassembly fabricate supramolecular nanomedicines (SNM). Using cabazitaxel as target agent, established that individual synthetic prodrugs tethered with...
The availability of precisely modulated chemical modifications dramatically affects the physicochemical properties pristine drugs and should facilitate amphiphilic self‐assembly prodrugs into supramolecular nanoprodrugs (SNPs). However, rationally designing such to achieve favorable clinical outcomes still remains a challenge. Here, library through site‐specific attachment variety lipophilic moieties antitumor agent SN‐38 (7‐ethyl‐10‐hydroxycamptothecin) is constructed. Taking advantage role...

Moreover, practicality synthetic value process were demonstrated by divers simple transformations products.
Drug-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) are of particular interest for efficient cancer therapy due to their improved drug delivery and therapeutic index in various types cancer. However, the encapsulation many chemotherapeutics into NPs is often hampered by unfavorable physicochemical properties. Here, we employed a reform strategy construct small library SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin)-derived prodrugs, which phenolate group was modified with variety hydrophobic moieties. This...
Flavonoids are natural polyphenolic compounds produced by many aquatic plants and released in their environments. In this study, the effects of several flavonoids on cyanobacterial Microcystis aeruginosa, especially relation to cell growth, photosynthetic activity, morphology, membrane integrity, were investigated. Significant growth inhibition was observed when cyanobacteria exposed three flavonoids, namely, 5,4'-dihydroxyflavone (DHF), apigenin, luteolin. Luteolin reduced effective quantum...
Combination therapy using distinct mode-of-action drugs has sparked a rapidly growing interest because this paradigm holds promise for improving the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer therapy. However, current drug combination refers to administering individual together, which is far from perfect regimen cancer patients. The aim work was demonstrate that synergistic delivery two chemotherapeutic in single nanoparticle reservoir could be achieved through rational chemical ligation followed by...
Synthesis of ingenious nanoassemblies is pursued in materials science. Herein, the situ synthesis self-assembled blends AB/BAB block copolymers poly(ethylene glycol)-block-polystyrene/polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-polystyrene (PEG-b-PS/PS-b-PEG-b-PS) via two-macro-RAFT agent comediated dispersion polymerization reported.
