Preparation of a camptothecin prodrug with glutathione-responsive disulfide linker for anticancer drug delivery

We present here a novel camptothecin (CPT) prodrug based on polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether-block-poly(2-methacryl ester hydroxyethyl disulfide-graft-CPT) (MPEG-SS-PCPT). It formed biocompatible nanoparticles (NPs) with diameters of approximately 122 nm with a CPT loading content as high as app...
