Development of Deferoxamine‐Functionalized Cyclodextrin Polymer for Targeted Iron Chelation
The cyclodextrin polymer is conjugated with 35 deferoxamine units and can form iron(III) complexes. The polymer exhibits significantly lower antiproliferative activity than free deferoxamine. The cyclodextrin polymer with multiple deferoxamine units may present a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of iron chelation therapies.
