A simple Paclitaxel (PTX) prodrug based on TPGS and disulfide bond (TPGS-S-S-PTX) was synthesized by a two step esterification and its ability to overcome multidrug resistance (MDR) was investigated.This prodrug can be quickly cleaved after endocytosis by tumor cells to cause release of the active drug and consequent cancer cell cytotoxicity.
