Abstract: A novel photocontrolled 'ON-OFF' release system for the α-cyclodextrin-5-fluorouracial (α-CD-5FU) prodrug, based on host-guest interaction on the photoresponsive and cross-linked nanofiber surface, was demonstrated. The nanofibers with a stimuli-responsive surface were electrospun from the block copolymer prepared via controlled radical polymerization, followed by surface modification via 'Click Chemistry', and loading of the prodrug via host-guest interaction. © 2009 American Chemical Society.
