Research Abstract |
In the present study, we prepared folate (FA)-appended methylated cyclodextrin (M-CyD) to evaluate that of cancer cell-selective cytotoxicity, because FA specifically binds to folate receptor (FR), which expresses in many cancer cells. FA-appended M-CyD entered into folate receptor (FR) over-expressing cancer cells and showed significant cytotoxicity. These results suggest may provide useful information when we prepare the novel anti-tumor agents using FA and M-CyD.
