He, Changyu published the artcileDesign and synthesis of redox and oxidative dual responsive block copolymer micelles for intracellular drug delivery, Formula: C4H6F3NOS, the publication is European Polymer Journal (2016), 38-52, database is CAplus.
The need for smart materials in the area of biotechnol. has accelerated the development of stimuli-responsive copolymer micelles. Here, we reported a novel dual-stimuli-responsive block copolymer PEG-DMTK-SS-PLA with both di-Me thioketal (DMTK) and disulfide linkage incorporated into the backbone, capable of triggering fast drug release properties upon both oxidative (H2O2) and reductive (GSH) environment. The CMC values of these copolymer micelles ranging from 0.051 to 0.087 mg mL-1, the average diameters are from 34 nm to 55 nm and 65 nm to 198 nm for blank and DOX-loaded micelles resp. MTT assay conducted in NIH 3T3 cells showed the low cytotoxicity of these micelles even when the concentration reached up to 500 μg/mL. Considering tumor microenvironment’s diverse in kinds of tumor cells, fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry and MTT activity anal. were conducted in several cancer cells (e.g., cervix, lung, gastric, and colon cancer cells), and further confirmed that the dual responsive PEG-DMTK-SS-PLA micelles were degraded much faster than that of non-responsive PEG-PLA and single responsive PEG-SS-PLA and PEG-DMTK-PLA micelles. These results indicate that the dual-responsive micelles are promising for efficient anticancer drug delivery.
