Stabilization of the Nitric Oxide (NO) Prodrugs and Anticancer Leads, PABA/NO and Double JS-K, through Incorporation into PEG-Protected Nanoparticles

Abstract:
We report the stabilization of the nitric oxide (NO) prodrugs and anticancer lead compounds, PABA/NO (O2-{2,4-dinitro-5-[4-(N-methylamino)benzoyloxy]phenyl} 1-(N,N-dimethylamino)diazen-1-ium-1,2-diolate) and "Double JS-K" 1,5-bis-{1-[(4-ethoxycarbonyl)piperazin-1-yl]diazen-1-ium-1,2-diol-2-ato}-2,4-dinitrobenzene, through their incorporation into polymer-protected nanoparticles. The prodrugs were formulated in block copolymer-stabilized nanoparticles with sizes from 220 to 450 nm by a novel rapid precipitation process.
