The self-assembly prodrugs are usually consisted of drug modules, activation modules, and assembly modules. Keeping the balance between efficacy and safety by selecting suitable modules remains a challenge for developing prodrug nanoassemblies.

Synthesis and kinetic studies of mutual azo prodrugs of 5-aminosalicylic acid with sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim as models for colon targeting [PDF]
In this study, two mutual azo prodrugs were synthesized for colon targeting in a treatment of colonic diverticular disease. The first was synthesized by coupling sulfamethoxazole with salicylic acid; the second was synthesized by coupling one mole of ...

Organic Carbon Monoxide Prodrugs [PDF]
Ongoing efforts towards the development of CO-based therapeutics have resulted in the generation of novel CO prodrugs that release CO via different triggers or stimuli.

A supramolecular pyroptotic thermal switch encapsulates I3− within β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) and undergoes CaCO3 mineralization. Upon lysosomal acidification, CaCO3 is degraded, releasing Ca2+ and I3−. Concurrently, BODIPY activation converts I3− into I2, inducing oxidative stress and Ca2+ overload, which together trigger caspase‐3/GSDME‐mediated ...

N-Monosubstituted Methoxy-oligo(ethylene glycol) Carbamate Ester Prodrugs of Resveratrol
Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol with many interesting biological activities. Its pharmacological exploitation in vivo is, however, hindered by its rapid elimination via phase II conjugative metabolism at the intestinal and, most importantly, hepatic ...

Engineering Prodrug Nanomedicine for Cancer Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy has shifted the clinical paradigm of cancer management. However, despite promising initial progress, immunotherapeutic approaches to cancer still suffer from relatively low response rates and the possibility of severe side effects, likely ...

Enzyme-mediated activation of prodrugs
The development of potent drugs is always a challenging task and is often complicated by the number of pharmacokinetic and formulation limitations they suffer from.

Prodrugs: bridging pharmacodynamic/pharmacokinetic gaps
In this mini review, prodrugs are discussed with a focus on their pharmaceutical, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic objectives, as well as on the resulting therapeutic benefits.

Dermal and transdermal delivery: prodrugs
Attempts to deliver drugs into and through the skin (dermal and transdermal delivery) have not been very successful because the physicochemical properties of drugs are often not optimal.
