Photo and pH dual stimuli-responsive block copolymer micelles with defined incorporation of o-nitrobenzyl units in poly(ɛ-caprolactone) block for controlled release
A series of dual stimuli-responsive block copolymers with varying content of photocleavable o-nitrobenzyl (ONB) ester group pendent in the hydrophobic poly(ɛ-caprolactone) block and pH-cleavable acetal linkage at the junction with hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) block is synthesized. The hydrophobic block is a random copolymer synthesized by ring-opening copolymerization of ɛ-caprolactone and ONB-substituted ɛ-caprolactone containing varying compositions of the two monomers. Kinetics of polymerization shows that ONB-functionalized monomer has lower reactivity than that of the unsubstituted monomer. The series of block copolymers shows self-assembly into well-defined spherical micelles of average size of 150–200 nm in aqueous solution. Photocleavage of ONB groups is studied by NMR and UV–vis spectroscopy, and its extent is determined. The two stimuli viz. UV light and pH are used individually as well as simultaneously to study the controlled release of the encapsulated drug Camptothecin and the synergistic effect of the two stimuli is demonstrated. The effect of varying content of ONB groups is observed on drug release profile. MTT assay showed non-cytotoxic nature of the polymer. Cell uptake and photoinduced release of doxorubicin (DOX) from the micelles in MDA-MB-231 cells is demonstrated.
期刊介绍:
European Polymer Journal is dedicated to publishing work on fundamental and applied polymer chemistry and macromolecular materials. The journal covers all aspects of polymer synthesis, including polymerization mechanisms and chemical functional transformations, with a focus on novel polymers and the relationships between molecular structure and polymer properties. In addition, we welcome submissions on bio-based or renewable polymers, stimuli-responsive systems and polymer bio-hybrids. European Polymer Journal also publishes research on the biomedical application of polymers, including drug delivery and regenerative medicine. The main scope is covered but not limited to the following core research areas:
Polymer synthesis and functionalization
• Novel synthetic routes for polymerization, functional modification, controlled/living polymerization and precision polymers.
Stimuli-responsive polymers
• Including shape memory and self-healing polymers.
Supramolecular polymers and self-assembly
• Molecular recognition and higher order polymer structures.
Renewable and sustainable polymers
• Bio-based, biodegradable and anti-microbial polymers and polymeric bio-nanocomposites.
Polymers at interfaces and surfaces
• Chemistry and engineering of surfaces with biological relevance, including patterning, antifouling polymers and polymers for membrane applications.
Biomedical applications and nanomedicine
• Polymers for regenerative medicine, drug delivery molecular release and gene therapy
The scope of European Polymer Journal no longer includes Polymer Physics.
