Abstract

Statement of Purpose: Doxorubicin (Dox) approved by FDA is anthracycline antitumor agent and treated to various cancers. However, Dox showed a short retention time and excretion caused by hydrophilic nature. In the previous study, the amphiphilic doxorubicin derivatives modified with cholesterol (L-dox A) were newly synthesized. These compounds also showed a longer retention time than Dox in HeLa and MDAMB 231 cells [1]. The liposomes were widely investigated to target over-expressed receptor in cancer cells such as a folate receptor (FR). Also, the Dox encapsulated liposome (Doxil) allows more time to reach the tumor tissue and then Dox is slowly released. Therefore, in this study, the L-dox A was used to increase the retention time in cancer cells, and PEGylated cholesterol and folic acid modified lipid were used to form the liposome and target the cancer.
