Polyvalent saccharide-functionalized generation 3 poly(amidoamine) dendrimer–methotrexate conjugate as a potential anticancer agent
چکیده انگلیسی

A saccharide-terminated generation 3 (G3) polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer was synthesized as a drug carrier. Utilizing this dendritic platform, we have successfully synthesized polyvalent conjugates (G3-MTX) containing the drug methotrexate (MTX). Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) results showed that G3-MTX presented three orders of magnitude enhancement in binding avidity to folate-binding protein (FBP) as compared to the free folic acid (FA). Flow cytometric and confocal microscopic analysis showed that conjugate (G3-MTX-FI) containing imaging agent fluorescein-5(6)-carboxamidohexanoic acid (FI) was internalized into folate receptor (FR)-expressing KB cells in dose-dependent and receptor-mediated fashion. The G3-MTX induced a dose-dependent cytotoxicity in the KB cells. Therefore, the polyvalent G3-MTX may have potential as an anticancer nanodevice for the specific targeting and killing of FR-expressing tumor cells.
