چکیده

Daunorubicin (or daunomycin) and Doxorubicin (or adriamycin or 14-hydroxydaunomycin) are well-known anticancer agents used in cancer chemotherapy. They are anthracycline antibiotics and are commonly used in the treatment of a wide range of cancers. Doxorubicin and Daunorubicin were chemically conjugated to PEO-b-PCL (poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly( -caprolactone)) nanoparticles. In this research, the molecular structure, Binding Energy(BE), Dipole Moment (DM), Gibbs free energy of solvation (∆G (solvation)) and some physicochemical properties of the DoxorubicinPEO-b-PCL and DaunorubicinPEO-b-PCL were investigated. Our results indicate that these complexes mentioned above can be used to improve the anti-cancer activity.

Anticancer activity of Doxorubicin conjugated to polymer/carbon based-nanohybrid against MCF-7 breast and HT-29 colon cancer cells

The Cancer is one of the world’s most devastating diseases. Doxorubicin (DOX) is an effective chemotherapeutic drug; however, its toxicity is a significant limitation in therapy. Due to the severe side effects of chemotherapy drugs, scientists have tried to load these drugs in nanocomposites. This paper describes a facile and low cost approach for preparation polymeric biodegradable nanohybrid ...

Computational study on geometric and electronic properties of 3.6-carbazole based conjugated polymers

In this work, we present firstly a study based on the calculation of the local spin densities of radical cations, which is known as a good measure of reactivity for coupling reactions, to obtain a theoretical basis for the one-step formation of poly(3.6-carbazole) and derivatives. Then we detail a DFT theoretical study of the geometric and electronic properties of oligomers based on carbazole a...

Ratio of Drug/carrier as Dominant Factor in Determining Size of Doxorubicin-Loaded Beta-1,3- Glucan Nanoparticles: An Artificial Neural Networks Study

Size of nanoparticles is an important parameter in determining many of their properties. In this work, nanoparticles of β-1,3-glucan containing doxorubicin (Dox) in conjugated and unconjugated forms (Con-Dox-Glu and Un-Dox-Glu, respectively) were prepared. Then, artificial neural networks (ANNs) were used to find the effect of different formulation/processing parameters on their particle size, ...
