Folate-maytansinoids: target-selective drugs of low molecular weight.

Abstract

Folate receptor is over-expressed in a variety of carcinomas. To design a cytotoxic drug that would selectively target these carcinomas, we synthesized folate-maytansinoids. These drugs showed high affinity toward folate receptor, appeared to enter cells exclusively via the folate receptor-mediated caveolar pathway and displayed high cytotoxic potency (in the range of 10[-11] to 10[-10] M) and remarkable selectivity for folate receptor-expressing carcinoma cell lines. Folate-maytansinoids represent a new class of tumor-specific agents in which the targeting and the cytotoxic function can be altered independently.
