IGD-Targeted could transport Dox to GD-positive cells and inhibit cell proliferation in acidic environment selectively in vitro. (A) IGD-Targeted could release Dox to GD2+ cells in acidic environment. IGD-Targeted was incubated with IMR32 or A431 cells in pH 7.4 or pH 6.5, respectively. Cells were observed under confocal microscope. (B) Cell Viability inhibition ability of IGD-Targeted to GD2+ cells. Different concentration of IGD-Targeted was incubated with IMR32 or A431 cells in pH 7.4 or pH 6.5, cell proliferations were detected by MTS assay. (C) Cell Proliferation inhibition of IGD-Targeted to GD2+ cells. Different concentration of IGD-Targeted was incubated with IMR32 or A431 cells in pH 7.4 or pH 6.5, cell proliferations were detected by CCK8 assay (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001).
