METHODS: Floxuridine was conjugated to polyethylenimine-beta-cyclodextrin to form prodrug PEI-beta-CyD-Fd. The structure of synthesized PEI-beta-CyD-Fd was confirmed by (1)H-NMR, FT-IR and UV. MTT assay and cell wound healing assay were performed on human hepatic carcinoma cell line HepG2. RESULT: The drug loading was 2 %. The MTT assay and cell wound healing assay indicated that PEI-beta-CyD-Fd significantly inhibited proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells. Conclusion: The synthesized prodrug PEI-CyD-Fd has a significant antitumor activity on HepG2 cells. | | Language | chi | | Pub Type(s) | English Abstract Journal Article
