To investigate the delivery of hydrophobic therapeutic agents, a new class of polymer carriers was synthesized. These carriers are composed of two components: (i) a pH‐responsive hydrogel composed of methacrylic acid grafted with poly(ethylene glycol) tethers, P(MAA‐g‐EG), and (ii) hydrophobic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanoparticles. Before the P(MAA‐g‐EG) hydrogel was crosslinked, PMMA nanoparticles were added to the solution and upon exposure to UV light they were photoencapsulated throughout the P(MAA‐g‐EG) hydrogel structure. The pH‐responsive behavior of P(MAA‐g‐EG) is capable of triggered release of a loaded therapeutic agent, such as a low molecular weight drug or protein, when it passes from the stomach (low pH) to upper small intestine (neutral pH). The introduction of PMMA nanoparticles into the hydrogel structure affected the swelling behavior, therapeutic agent loading efficiency, and solute release profiles. In equilibrium swelling conditions the swelling ratio of nanoparticle‐containing hydrogels decreased with increasing nanoparticle content. Loading efficiencies of the model therapeutic agent fluorescein ranged from 38% to 51% and increased with increasing hydrophobic content. Release studies from neat P(MAA‐g‐EG) and the ensuing P(MAA‐g‐EG) hydrogels containing nanoparticles indicated that the transition from low pH (2.0) to neutral pH (7.0) triggered fluorescein release. Maximum fluorescein release depended on the structure and hydrophobicity of the carriers used in these studies. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Microgel particles were prepared, made of hydroxypropylcellulose‐graft‐(acrylic acid) (HPC‐g‐AA) and acrylic acid(AA). The particles undergo reversible volume phase transitions in response to both pH and temperature changes while keeping the inherent properties of PAA and HPC‐g‐AA. Dynamic light scattering measurements reveal that the average hydrodynamic radius and hydrodynamic radius distributions of the microgel particles depend on temperature and pH. The microgels exhibit excellent pH sensitivity and a higher swelling ratio at higher pH in aqueous solution. In vitro release study shows that the amount of insulin released from the microgels is less at pH = 1.2 than at pH = 6.8. The results indicate that the resultant microgels seem to be of great potential for intelligent oral drug delivery. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

pH‐sensitive hydrogels for biomedical applications were synthesized using a photoinitiator‐free technique involving the initiation of photopolymerization by donor/acceptor pairs. The differential photocalorimetric technique indicated a high polymerization rate for the N‐vinylpyrrolidinone (NVP, donor)/acrylic acid (AA, acceptor) pair at a 1:1 molar ratio. However, photopolymerization of larger quantities of these monomers (1:1 molar ratio) produced a water‐soluble polymer. Nevertheless, an anionic hydrogel was successfully formed when a small quantity of 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was included in the NVP/AA formulation. A mixture of HEMA and AA, although both are classified as acceptors, photopolymerized to produce a copolymer which functioned as an anionic hydrogel. The swelling and drug release of these hydrogels were investigated in acidic, neutral and basic pH environments. Their biocompatibility with HaCaT human epidermal keratinocyte cells was tested and a positive cell growth as evidenced by the 3‐[4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl]‐2,5‐diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) cell proliferation assay indicated that these hydrogels have no toxic effect on HaCaT.

We investigated the synthesis of a pH‐responsive graft copolymer of natural rubber and 4‐vinylpyridine. The grafting reaction was carried out using deproteinized natural rubber (DPNR) latex, with potassium persulfate as a free radical initiator. The pH responsiveness of the graft copolymer was investigated using water swelling and contact angle measurements, and was compared with that of pure DPNR. The graft copolymer was found to become responsive in solution at a pH of around 4. Indigo carmine adsorption studies identified the Langmuir isotherm, suggesting monolayer coverage. The adsorbed indigo carmine, a model anionic drug, and carbon dots, an emerging nanosized fluorophore, could be released from the graft copolymer by lowering the pH of the solution. The graft copolymer was tested as a heavy metal adsorbent, and demonstrated selectivity to copper(II) ions. The graft copolymer of 4‐vinylpyridine and DPNR developed in this study is therefore a multifunctional, pH‐responsive material with a wide range of potential applications, including sensing and catalysis, as a biomedical material and as an adsorbent. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Polymeric micelles that are responsive to pH are particularly attractive for application in drug delivery systems. In this study, one type of amphiphilic block copolymers with hydrophobic building blocks bearing pH‐sensitive ketal groups was designed. In an acidic environment, the polarity transfer from amphiphile to double hydrophile for this copolymer destroyed the driving force of micelle formation, which triggered the release of encapsulated hydrophobic molecules. The amphiphilic block copolymers monomethoxy‐poly(ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly(2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐dioxolane‐4‐yl)methyl acrylate (MPEG‐block‐PDMDMA) was fabricated by atom transfer radical polymerization using MPEG‐Br as macroinitiator. The critical micelle concentration of various compositions of this copolymer in aqueous solution ranged from 4.0 to 10.0 mg L?1, and the partition equilibrium constant (Kv) of pyrene in micellar solutions of the copolymers varied from 1.61 × 105 to 4.86 × 105. Their overall effective hydrodynamic diameters from dynamic light scattering measurements were between 80 and 400 nm, and the micellar morphology showed spherical geometry as investigated using transmission electron microscopy. At pH = 1.0, all of these polymeric micelles presented 100% payload release in 24 h of incubation, while at pH = 3.0, nearly 70 and 25% of pyrene was released for MPEG‐block‐PDMDMA (44/18) and MPEG‐block‐PDMDMA (44/25) in 260 h, respectively. The pH‐responsive MPEG‐block‐PDMDMA polymeric micelles having good encapsulation efficiency for hydrophobic drugs are potential candidates for biomedical and drug delivery applications.

Novel pH‐responsive poly(2‐succinyloxyethylmethacrylate)‐b‐poly[(N‐4‐vinylbenzyl),N,N‐diethylamine] [poly(SEMA‐b‐VEA)] diblock copolymers were synthesized via reversible addition fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization to investigate their self‐assembly micellar behavior. The self‐assembly behaviors of synthesized diblock copolymers with distinct molecular weights (labeled (1) to) were confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy, TEM and dynamic light scattering measurements. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) loading capacity was evaluated, and the in vitro cytotoxicity effect of DOX‐loaded diblock copolymer was also studied by assessing the survival rate of the breast cancer cell line MCF‐7 with 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The results exhibited remarkable controlled release in the MTT assay. The DOX encapsulation efficiency was calculated to be 96.4%. The size and zeta potential of DOX‐loaded poly(SEMA‐b‐VEA) diblock copolymers were 204 nm and +5.7 mV at a pH of 7.4. DOX release values after 440 h at pH 7.4, 5.4 and 4 were 22.15%, 31.43% and 47.06%, respectively. The released values of DOX‐loaded poly(SEMA‐b‐VEA) and at pH 7.4 were 22.15%, 20.5% and 17.5%, respectively. Cell survival ratios were 18.9%, 23.16% and 16.92% after 72 h. Poly(SEMA‐b‐VEA) copolymers can be considered in nanomedicine applications due to their excellent pH‐responsive micellar behavior. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

A series of amphiphilic graft copolymers based on polyaspartamide were synthesized by successive aminolysis reactions of polysuccinimide using 2‐diisopropylaminoethyl (DIP), O‐(2‐aminoethyl)‐O′‐methylpolyethylene glycol (PEG) and lauryl amine as pH‐sensitive, hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups, respectively. The pH‐dependent self‐assembly behavior of the aqueous copolymer solution was investigated. Nano‐aggregation, which was induced by a hydrophilic/hydrophobic shift of the DIP group in solution, occurred at a pH in the vicinity of the pKa of the DIP group. The mean diameter of the nano‐aggregate could be modulated by changing the compositions of both pendants. The mean diameter of the nanoparticles increased with increasing solution pH from 6.5 to 8. The dissolution of paclitaxel into these amphiphilic nanoparticles was attempted and the pH‐dependent release behavior was examined using a solvent‐casting method. The results showed a significantly faster release of paclitaxel at pH = 6.5, which is a tumoral acidic pH, than at neutral physiological pH. These pH‐sensitive PEGylated polyaspartamide derivatives have potential use as a tumor‐targeting delivery system. 相似文献

Hydrogels have been widely used as mild biomaterials due to their bio‐affinity, high drug loading capability and controllable release profiles. However, hydrogel‐based carriers are greatly limited for the delivery of hydrophobic payloads due to the lack of hydrophobic binding sites. Herein, nano‐liposome micelles were embedded in semi‐interpenetrating poly[(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐co‐chitosan] (PNIPAAm‐co‐CS) and poly[(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐co‐(sodium alginate)] (PNIPAAm‐co‐SA) hydrogels which were responsive to both temperature and pH, thereby establishing tunable nanocomposite hydrogel delivery systems. Nano‐micelles formed via the self‐assembly of phospholipid could serve as the link between hydrophobic drug and hydrophilic hydrogel due to their special amphiphilic structure. The results of transmission and scanning electron microscopies and infrared spectroscopy showed that the porous hydrogels were successfully fabricated and the liposomes encapsulated with baicalein could be well contained in the network. In addition, the experimental results of response release in vitro revealed that the smart hydrogels showed different degree of sensitiveness under different pH and temperature stimuli. The results of the study demonstrate that combining PNIPAAm‐co‐SA and PNIPAAm‐co‐CS hydrogels with liposomes encapsulated with hydrophobic drugs is a feasible method for hydrophobic drug delivery and have potential application prospects in the medical field. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The aim of the research presented was to develop a potential liver‐targeting prolonged‐circulation polymeric prodrug of doxorubicin (Dox) with a pH‐triggered drug release profile. In particular, linear dendritic block copolymers composed of polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG; number‐average molecular weight of 2000 g mol?1) with or without galactose (Gal) were synthesized. Dox was coupled to the copolymers via an acid‐labile hydrazone linker. These prodrugs, designated Gal‐PEG‐b‐PAMAM‐Doxn and mPEG‐b‐PAMAM‐Doxm, showed accelerated Dox release as the pH decreased from 8.0 to 5.6. Cytotoxicity of the prodrugs was lower than that of free Dox due to the gradual drug release nature. Compared to mPEG‐b‐PAMAM‐Doxm, Gal‐PEG‐b‐PAMAM‐Doxn showed rather high cytotoxicity against Bel‐7402, suggestive of its galactose receptor‐mediated enhanced tumor uptake. This galactose receptor‐mediated liver‐targeted profile was further confirmed by the prolonged retention time in hepatoma tissue monitored using magnetic resonance imaging. Gal‐PEG‐b‐PAMAM‐Doxn showed better in vivo antitumor efficacy than free Dox, suggesting its great potential as a polymeric antitumor prodrug. Copyright © 2010 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Four different pH‐ and electrolyte‐responsive polymers were synthesized from ethyl piperazine with four different counter ions viz., chloride, bromide, sulfate, and nitrate. IR and NMR spectroscopic techniques confirmed the structure of monomers and polymers. Thermal properties of these polymers were investigated by TGA and DSC analysis. The dilute solution properties in pure water, in inorganic simple salt solutions, and pH‐responsive behavior of these polymers were studied by the measurement of viscosity by Ubbelohde viscometer. Flocculation behavior of these polymers was investigated by turbidity studies with bentonite suspension. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 100: 3174–3186, 2006 相似文献

A series of pH‐responsive hydrogels were studied as potential drug carriers for the protection of insulin from the acidic environment of the stomach before releasing in the small intestine. Hydrogels based on poly(vinyl alcohol) networks grafted with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid were prepared by a two‐step process. Poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels were prepared by gamma ray irradiation (50 kGy) and then followed by grafting either acrylic acid or methacrylic acid onto these poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogels with subsequent irradiation (5–20 kGy). These graft hydrogels showed pH‐sensitive swelling behavior and were used as carriers for the controlled release of insulin. The in vitro release of insulin was observed for the insulin‐loaded hydrogels in a simulated intestinal fluid (pH 6.8) but not in a simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2). The release behavior of insulin in vivo in a rat model confirmed the effectiveness of the oral delivery of insulin to control the level of glucose. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Fabrication of pH‐responsive molecularly imprinted polyethersulfone particles for bisphenol‐A uptake
pH‐responsive molecularly imprinted particles were successfully fabricated by pore‐filling poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) gels into bisphenol‐A (BPA)‐imprinted polyethersulfone particles. The adsorbed BPA amount (or rate) decreased after filling the PAA gels both for the imprinted and nonimprinted particles. However, it was confirmed that changing the acidity of the solution reversibly controls the rebinding ability toward BPA and that the BPA uptake of the pore‐filled particles exhibited chemical valve behavior at a pH between 3 and 6. This finding can be attributed to the swelling of the PAA gels in the particles. The present methodology provides a simple way to prepare pH‐responsive molecularly imprinted materials and is expandable to the imprinting of other hydrophobic molecules, such as dibenzofuran. Also, the results of this work demonstrate the potential of stimuli‐responsive molecularly imprinted polymer materials as smart chemicals and as drug‐delivery systems. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The experiment and dissipative particle dynamics simulation were carried out on four polymers with different block ratios for the investigation of the structure–property relationship of (poly(ε‐caprolactone)2‐[poly(2‐(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)‐b‐poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate)]2 [(PCL)2(PDEA‐b‐PPEGMA)2] micelles. The miktoarm star polymers assembled into spherical micelles composed of PCL core, pH‐sensitive PDEA mesosphere and poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PPEGMA) shell. When decreasing pH from 7.4 to 5.0, the hydrodynamic diameter and transmittance of (PCL)2(PDEA‐b‐PPEGMA)2 micelles increased along with globule‐uneven‐extended conformational transitions, owing to the protonation of tertiary amine groups of DEA at lower pH conditions. Doxorubicin (DOX) was mainly loaded in the pH‐sensitive layer, and more DOX were loaded in the core when increasing drug concentrations. The in vitro DOX release from the micelles was significantly accelerated by decreasing pH from 7.4 to 5.0. The results demonstrated that the pH‐sensitive micelles could be used as an efficient carrier for hydrophobic anticancer drugs, achieving controlled and sustained drug release. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 60: 3634–3646, 2014 相似文献

We present a simple strategy to prepare doxorubicin (DOX) containing hydrogen‐bonded films of poly(2‐isopropyl‐2‐oxazoline) (PIPOX) and tannic acid (TA) which release DOX in acidic conditions while releasing a minimal amount of DOX at physiological pH. Water soluble complexes of TA and DOX (TA ? DOX) were prepared prior to film construction. PIPOX and TA ? DOX were deposited at the surface at pH 6.5 using the layer‐by‐layer (LbL) technique. We found that multilayers released a minimal amount of DOX at physiological pH due to further ionization of TA with increasing pH and enhanced electrostatic interactions between TA and DOX. In contrast, pH‐induced release of DOX was observed in moderately acidic conditions due to protonation of TA as the acidity increased and electrostatic interactions between TA and DOX decreased. Moreover, we found that raising the temperature from 25 °C to 37.5 °C increased the amount of DOX released from the surface. This can be rationalized with the conformational changes within the multilayers correlated with the lower critical solution temperature behaviour of PIPOX and increased kinetic energy of DOX molecules. Considering the acidic nature of tumour tissues and important biological properties of PIPOX and TA, these multilayers are promising for pH‐ and temperature‐triggered release of DOX from surfaces. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Stimuli‐responsive elastomers are smart materials for sensing applications. Natural rubber (NR) is a renewable elastomer with excellent elasticity and fatigue resistance. In this work, a straightforward method for the preparation of pH‐responsive crosslinked materials from NR and poly(4‐vinylpyridine) (P4VP) via free radical crosslinking reaction using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator is described. The effects of P4VP and BPO concentrations, reaction time and reaction temperature on immobilization percentage were investigated. It was found that the immobilization percentage reached 90% when using a P4VP concentration of 150 phr and a BPO concentration of 10 phr for 24 h at 90 °C. The pH responsiveness of the crosslinked materials was studied via water swelling, water contact angle and dye release measurements. Unlike unmodified rubber, the P4VP‐crosslinked NR was found to be pH‐responsive in acidic solution. Indigo carmine adsorption studies showed the Langmuir isotherm suggesting monolayer coverage of dye on the rubber surface. The dye could also be released upon increasing the pH of solution above 4. Based on these results, the introduction of pH responsiveness to NR will lead to novel responsive rubber‐based materials that can be used in biomedical and sensing applications. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The multifunctional double network (DN) soft hydrogels reported here are highly swellable and stretchable pH‐responsive smart hydrogel materials with sufficient strength and self‐healing properties. Such multifunctional hydrogels are achieved using double crosslinking structures with multiple physical and chemical crosslinks. They consist of a copolymer network of acrylamide (AM) and sodium acrylate (Na‐AA) and other reversible network of poly(vinyl alcohol)–borax complex. They were characterized by Fourier transform IR analysis and studied for their hydrogen bonding and ionic interaction. The degree of equilibrium swelling was observed to be as high as 5959% (at pH 7.0) for a hydrogel with AM/Na‐AA = 25/75 wt% in the network (GS‐6 sample). The highest degree of swelling was observed to be 6494% at pH 8.5. The maximum tensile strength was measured to be 1670, 580 and 130 kPa for a DN hydrogel (GS‐2 sample: AM/Na‐AA =75/25 wt% with 20, 40 and 60 wt% water content, respectively). The self‐healing efficiency was estimated to be 69% for such a hydrogel. These multifunctional DN hydrogels with amalgamation of many functional properties are unique in hydrogel materials and such materials may find applications in sensors, actuators, smart windows and biomedical applications. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Novel pH‐responsive PEGylated hollow nanocapsules (HNCaps) were fabricated through a combination of distillation–precipitation copolymerization and surface thiol–ene ‘click’ grafting reaction. For this purpose, SiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized using the Stöber approach, and then modified using 3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (MPS). Afterward, a mixture of triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (as crosslinker), acrylic acid (AA; as pH‐responsive monomer) and MPS‐modified SiO2 nanoparticles (as sacrificial template) was copolymerized using the distillation–precipitation approach to afford SiO2@PAA core–shell nanoparticles. The SiO2 core was etched from SiO2@PAA using HF solution, and the obtained PAA HNCaps were grafted with a thiol‐end‐capped poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) through a thiol–ene ‘click’ reaction to produce PAA‐g‐PEG HNCaps. The fabricated HNCaps were loaded with doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) as a model anticancer drug, and their drug loading and encapsulation efficiencies as well as pH‐dependent drug release behavior were investigated. The anticancer activity of the drug‐loaded HNCaps was extensively evaluated using MTT assay against human breast cancer cells (MCF7). The cytotoxicity assay results as well as superior physicochemical and biological features of the fabricated HNCaps mean that the developed DOX‐loaded HNCaps have excellent potential for cancer chemotherapy. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Novel amphiphilic, thermo‐ and pH‐responsive polyaspartamides showing both double‐responsive (pH and temperature) behavior and a sol‐gel transition were prepared and characterized. The polyaspartamide derivatives were synthesized by the successive aminolysis reactions of polysuccinimide using both hydrophobic N‐alkylamine (laurylamine, octylamine, hexylamine) and hydrophilic N‐isopropylethylenediamine. The composition of each component was analyzed by 1H NMR. At the intermediate composition range, the system showed a lower critical solution temperature behavior in water. The transition temperature (pH dependent) could be modulated by changing the alkyl chain length and graft composition. The temperature dependence of the nanoparticle size distribution of the polyaspartamide derivatives was also examined. The critical micelle concentration of the copolymers in a phosphate‐buffered saline (pH 7.4) solution ranged from 6 to 20 μg/L. In addition, physical gelation, i.e., a sol‐gel transition, was observed in a concentrated solution. These novel double‐responsive and injectable hydrogels have potential biomedical applications such as drug delivery systems and tissue engineering. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
