Molecular structure-affinity relationship of bufadienolides and human serum albumin in vitro and molecular docking analysis.

The development of bufadienolides as anti-tumor agents is limited due to poor pharmacokinetic properties regarding drug half-lives and toxicity in vivo. These serious factors might be improved by increasing the drug/albumin-binding ratio. This study therefore investigated the relationship between th...
