“…Gemcitabine has been covalently bound to biologically relevant ligands that inludes poly-L-glutamic acid (polypeptide configuration), [58] cardiolipin, [56,57] 1-dodecylthio-2-decyloxypropyl-3-phophatidic acid, [40,60] lipid-nucleosides, [76] N -(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide polymer (HPMA), [21] benzodiazepine receptor ligand, [59,61] 4-( N )-valeroyl, 4-( N )-lauroyl, 4-( N )-stearoyl, [78] 1,1′,2-tris-noraqualenecarboxylic acid, [79] and the 4-fluoro [18F]-benzaldehyde derivative [77] for application as a positron-emitting radionuclide. Few if any published have described the molecular design, chemical synthesis and evaluation of the cytotoxic anti-neoplastic potency for gemcitabine immunochemotherapeutic created by generating a covalent bond at either the C 5 - methylhydroxy [36] or cytosine-like C 4 - amine groups of gemcitabine.…”
