Abstract
The interactions of anti-cancer drugs with blood constituents, particularly with serum albumin (HSA) may have a major influence on drug pharmacology and efficacy. In the present work the binding of paclitaxel (trade name Taxol ®) to human serum albumin and its effect on cisplatin and adriamycin interactions has been investigated through UV/visible, CD, fluorescence spectroscopy and the inductively couplet plasma atomic emission spectroscopy method. Displacement studies with use of bilirubin, as a competitive agent provided relevant information about the location of the binding site in HSA as well as the possible multidrug interactions.
