RGDfC-Se@DOX exhibited effective cellular uptake in A549 cells and entered A549 cells mainly by clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway. Compared to free DOX or Se@DOX at the equivalent dose of DOX, RGDfC-Se@DOX showed greater activity to inhibit A549 cells’ proliferation and migration/invasion and induce A549 cells’ apoptosis. More importantly, compared with passive targeting delivery system Se@DOX, active targeting delivery system RGDfC-Se@DOX exhibited more significant antitumor efficacy in vivo.Conclusion: Taken together, RGDfC-Se@DOX may be a novel promising drug candidate for the lung carcinoma therapy.
