摘要: 合成了星型多臂端氨基聚乙二醇(PEG)/聚乳酸-羟基乙酸(PLGA)两亲性嵌段共聚物(4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2), 并通过核磁共振和凝胶渗滤色谱法对其结构进行表征; 采用溶剂挥发法制备阿霉素载药纳米胶束, 利用EDC缩合法与叶酸偶联, 得到叶酸修饰的星型端氨基PEG-PLGA纳米胶束; 采用动态光散射、 紫外光谱及透射电镜等手段对纳米胶束进行了表征; 对载药纳米胶束在HeLa细胞中的摄取及细胞毒性进行了初步评价. 结果表明, 经叶酸修饰的星型多臂端氨基PEG-PLGA载药纳米胶束可有效提高HeLa细胞的摄取率以及对HeLa细胞的杀伤率, 表明其可作为一类新型的靶向抗肿瘤药物递送载体.

Abstract: A new type of folic acid(FA)-conjugated amphiphilic 4-arm star-shaped PLGA-PEG-NH2(4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2) micelles was prepared as a doxorubicin(DOX)-loaded nanocarrier for tumor-targeted drug delivery. The 4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2 micelles were prepared by a solvent evaporation method; then, FA was conjugated onto the surface of the micelles using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide hydrochloride(EDC) conjugation chemistry. The structure of the synthesized 4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2 copolymer was characterized by 1H NMR and gel permeation chromatography(GPC). The prepared micelles properties were determined by dynamic light scattering, UV spectra and TEM observation. The cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of FA-conjugated DOX-4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2 micelles were assessed using confocal laser scanning microscopy(CLSM) and the cell counting kit-8 assay. The results show that compared with the nontargeted DOX-micelles, FA-DOX-micelles have higher cellular uptake of DOX, and subsequently a higher cytotoxicity to tumor cells. In conclusion, the FA-conjugated 4s-PLGA-PEG-NH2 micelles could be an excellent nanocarrier to deliver anticancer drugs specifically inside the cell via FA-receptor-medicated endocytosis.
