摘要: To improve the anti-tumor activity of EGFR2R-lytic hybrid peptide, we prepared peptide-modified dextran conjugates with disulfide bonds between thiolated carboxymethyl (CMD-Cys) and cysteine-conjugated peptide (EGFR2R-lytic-Cys). In vitro release studies showed that was released from CMD-s-s-peptide conjugate in a concentration-dependent manner presence glutathione (GSH, 2μM-2mM). The exhibited similar cytotoxic free alone against human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cells vitro. Furthermore, it shown were highly accumulated tumor tissue mouse xenograft model using cells, more effective than peptide. addition, plasma concentrations moderately increased elimination half-life prolonged after intravenous injection conjugates. These results demonstrated based on CMD polymer would be potentially useful carriers for sustained vivo.
