Research Abstract |
We made pirarubicin-conjugated PLGA-based nanoparticles(incorporation rate : 2.17μg/mg, average particle diameter : 890nm), and then the pirarubicin-conjugated PLGA(PrbPLGA group) or PLGA alone(PLGA group) was uptaken in cultured endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs). There were no significant differences of migration activity and proliferation activity between PrbPLGA group and PLGA group. When these nanoparticle-uptake EPCs were transplanted in tumor-bearing mice, the size of tumors were significantly reduced in PrbPLGA group than that in PLGA group compared with saline injected(control) group.
