Prodrug-based self-assembled nanoparticles formed by 3′,5′-dioleoyl floxuridine for cancer chemotherapy
Abstract
Amphiphilic prodrug molecules (3′,5′-dioleoyl floxuridine, DOF) were constructed to form prodrug nanoparticles (DOF NPs) through a self-assembly process in water. The DOF NPs were easily prepared, relatively stable, and displayed improved anti-tumor activity.
