New polyanionic polymer conjugates with antitumoral activity are synthesized by chemically binding mustard type alkylating derivatives of di-(-chloroethyl)-amine and tri-(-chloroethyl)-amine, respectively, onto poly(maleic anhydride-alt-vinyl acetate). The structures of the compounds are verified by FTIR, 1 H NMR, and elemental analysis. The antitumoral activity of these polymeric drugs is evaluated in vivo using carcinosarcoma Walker 256 solid tumors in Wister rats. The conjugates exhibit antitumor regression (ATR)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
