ABSTRACT
Camptothecin (CPT) and its analogues show potent antitumour activity. However, poor water solubility and severe side effects have restricted their applications in clinical practice. In this paper, a novel self-assembly based on camptothecin and carbamoylmannose conjugates (CPT-Man) was constructed. The self-assembly increased the water solubility of camptothecin to 0.64 mg/ml and antitumour activity. Moreover, CPT-Man could induce obvious cancer cell apoptosis. This work provides a new approach for exploring carbohydrate-modified antitumour properties by self-assembled CPT drugs.
