Polyethylenimine-cyclodextrin-tegafur(PEI-CyD-tegafur) conjugate was synthesized as a novel multifunctional prodrug of tegafur for co-delivery of chemotherapeutic agent tegafur and enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP) reporter plasmid DNA.Conjugation of tegafur to PEI-CyD via chemical linkage was characterized by 1 H NMR spectrometry and ultraviolet(UV) spectrometry.PEI-CyD-tegafur was able to condense plasmid DNA into complexes of around 150 nm with positive charge at the N/P ratio of 25,in accordance with electron microscopy observation of compact and monodisperse nanoparticles.The results of in vitro experiments showed enhanced cytotoxicity and considerable transfection efficiency in B16F10 cell line.Therefore,PEI-CyD-tegafur may have great potential as a co-delivery system with anti-cancer activity and potential for gene delivery.
