Title: Reprogramming axial ligands facilitates the self-assembly of a platinum(iv) prodrug: overcoming drug resistance and safer in vivo delivery of cisplatin. Author: Fang T, Ye Z, Wu J, Wang H. Journal: Chem Commun (Camb); 2018 Aug 14; 54(66):9167-9170. PubMed ID: 30062328. Abstract: We herein reprogrammed axial ligands of platinum(iv) prodrugs, conferring the constructed prodrug entities with the ability to self-assemble in aqueous solution. Further cloaking of the PEG chain with Pluronic surfactant makes this nanoassembly (termed Pt(iv)-NP) suitable for systemic injection. Notably, Pt(iv)-NP significantly alleviated the toxicity of the parent cisplatin drug in vivo while preserving the pharmacological activity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
