- Abstract
Mono-6A-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonylamino-mono-6X-succinyl-β-cyclodextrin (1), an amino acid-based bi-functionalized derivative of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), has been functionalized with the bioactive peptide, bradykinin and/or sulfonamides using fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The all-in-one molecule contains a carrier (cyclodextrin), targeting agent (bradykinin), and/or model drug (sulfonamide). Varying combinations of these bradykinin-focussed molecules have been synthesized using Fmoc SPPS on Rink amide resin. The positioning of the sulfonamide group, the bradykinin peptide and the cyclodextrin carrier are essential for biological activity. The inclusion of spacers is also important. Structure-activity studies performed on three cancer cell lines in vitro support these conclusions.
