Popis: | Water-soluble pteroyl-closo-dodecaborate conjugates (PBCs 1&ndash 4), were developed as folate receptor (FR&alpha ) targeting boron carriers for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). PBCs 1&ndash 4 had adequately low cytotoxicity with IC50 values in the range of 1~3 mM toward selected human cancer cells, low enough to use as BNCT boron agents. PBCs 1&ndash 3 showed significant cell uptake by FR&alpha positive cells, especially U87MG glioblastoma cells, although the accumulation of PBC 4 was low compared with PBCs 1&ndash 3 and L-4-boronophenylalanine (L-BPA). The cellular uptake of PBC 1 and PBC 3 by HeLa cells was arrested by increasing the concentration of folate in the medium, indicating that the major uptake mechanisms of PBC 1&ndash 3 are primarily through FR&alpha receptor-mediated endocytosis. |
