However, drug resistance, short half-life and side effects seriously decrease its chemotherapeutic efficacy.Purpose: The object of preparing RGDV-gemcitabine was to prolong the half-life, to overcome drug resistance and to eliminate bone marrow toxicity of gemcitabine.Methods: Arg-Gly-Asp-Val was coupled with gemcitabine, forming 4-(Arg-Gly-Asp-Val-amino)-1-[3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-5-(hydroxylmethyl)oxo-lan-2-yl]pyrimidin-2-one (RGDV-gemcitabine) involving 9-step reactions. The advantages of RGDV-gemcitabine to gemcitabine were demonstrated by a series of assays, such as in vitro half-life assay, in vitro drug resistance assay, in vivo anti-tumor assay, in vivo kidney toxicity assay, in vivo liver toxicity assay and in vivo marrow toxicity assay. The nano-features of RGDV-gemcitabine were visualized by TEM, SEM and AFM images. The tumor-targeting action and release of RGDV-gemcitabine were evidenced by FT-MS spectra.Results: Half-life and anti-tumor activity of RGDV-gemcitabine were 17-fold longer and 10-fold higher than that of gemcitabine, respectively. RGDV-gemcitabine, but not gemcitabine, showed no kidney toxicity, no liver toxicity, no marrow toxicity and no drug resistance. The advantages attributed to the nanofeatures of RGDV-gemcitabine were targeting tumor tissue and releasing gemcitabine in tumor tissue.Conclusion: RGDV-gemcitabine successively overcame the defects of gemcitabine and provided a practical strategy of nano-medicine.Keywords: gemcitabine, modification, half-life, anti-tumor, tumor targeting, release, toxicity, nano-speciesLiu WMao YZhang XWang YWu JZhao SPeng SZhao MDove Medical Pressarticlegemcitabinemodificationhalf-lifeanti-tumortumor targetingreleasetoxicitynano-speciesMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 7263-7279 (2019)
