Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain 5-fluorouracil-carrying chitosan having excellent antitumor activity and low toxicity, by reacting 5-fluorouracil with an alkylene diisocyanate and then reacting the obtd. compd, with a hydrochloride of chitosan. CONSTITUTION:A compd. of formula II (wherein m is 2-6) is prepd. by reacting 5-fluorouracil of formula I with alkylene diisocyanate (e.g., hexamethylene diisocyanate). Then, 5-fluorouracil-carrying chitosan having repeating units of formula IV is obtd. by reacting the compd. of formula II with a hydrochloride of chitosan of formula III. The obtained 5-fluorouracil-carrying chitosan of formula IV is incorporated into tumor cells as it is and 5-fluorouracil is released in the cells to exhibit the antitumor activity. Chitosan which is a carrier is decomposed and absorbed after the aim is achieved.

(Prior art) Chitin is a tissue polysaccharide that forms the exoskeleton of crustaceans and fungi, and has a chemical structure and physical properties very similar to cellulose.
There are very rich resources on Earth. This chitin has a strong crystal structure, so it lacks solubility and reactivity, or chitosan, which is obtained by deacetylating chitin under strong alkaline conditions, becomes water-soluble when it is made into a salt, and chitin can also be hydroxyethylated with ethylene oxide. The resulting glycolized chitin also becomes water-soluble, making it easier to chemically modify it.

These chitins and their derivatives are polymeric substances that generally have many properties suitable for biomaterials, such as low toxicity and biodegradability and absorption. Among these, partially N-acetylated chitin or partially N-acetylated chitosan selectively aggregates leukemia L1210 dehydrated cancer cells and inhibits their proliferation. Oligosaccharides (especially hexaose)
It has been reported in recent years that it exhibits strong immunostimulatory antitumor activity.
Chitin and chitosan are attracting attention as polysaccharides having antitumor activity (for example, JP-A-59-27826 and JP-A-62-123123). In this way, chitin and chitosan have low toxicity, are biodegradable and absorbable, and have the ability to selectively accumulate in tumor cells, so from a different perspective, they meet the requirements as carriers for polymeric drugs. I can say that it is.
