摘要 |
The present invention relates to compounds containing an anthracyclinone group such as doxorubicin, daunorubicin or a derivative thereof. The compounds of the invention also contain ester, glycoside or glucuronide structures which are hydrolyzed by the corresponding esterase, glycosidase or glucuronidase. These compounds possess potent cytotoxic activity which is developed after the hydrolysis of the ester or glycoside group of the compound and are effective in the inhibition of tumor cells and bacterial growth after activation. |
