摘要
Novel polymeric delivery systems for the photosensitizer mesochlorin e(6) (Mce(6))were synthesized to overcome problems of systemic toxicity. A disulfide bond was included to allow for quick release of Mce(6) from the N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer backbone once internalized in tumor tissue. The synthesized conjugates demonstrated a time-dependent reductive cleavage with an accompanying increase in the quantum yield of singlet oxygen generation on exposure to DTT. Quicker release kinetics and a higher cytotoxicity in SKOV-3 human ovarian carcinoma cells were obtained as compared to polymer conjugate with a proteolytically cleavable GFLG spacer. These novel conjugates hold promise as clinically relevant drug delivery systems for photodynamic therapy of cancer.
