Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely-used anticancer drug, but its cardiotoxicity severely hampers its potency in chemotherapy. Herein, human serum albumin (HSA) is engaged as a biocompatible nanocarrier to load a pH-sensitive DOX prodrug, DMDOX, generating HSA-DMDOX nanoparticles via self-assembly driven by hydrophobic interactions. HSA-DMDOX disperses well in a physiological environment (∼40 nm) but aggregates in a tumor acidic microenvironment (pH 6.5, ∼140 nm) owing to the hydrophobicity increase of DMDOX by protonation of carboxylic groups.
