Nanoparticles made from poly(dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) are used to deliver a wide range of bioactive molecules, due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability. This study investigates the surface modification of PLGA nanoparticles via the layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition of polyelectrolytes, and the effects of these coatings on the release behavior, cytotoxicity, hemolytic activity, and cellular uptake efficiency. PLGA nanoparticles are modified via LbL adsorption of two polyelectrolyte pairs: 1) poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) and 2) poly(L-lysine hydrobromide) (PLL) and dextran sulfate (DES). It is demonstrated that both PAH/PSS and PLL/DES coatings suppress the burst release usually observed for unmodified PLGA nanoparticles and that the release behavior can be adjusted by changing the layer numbers, layer materials, or by crosslinking the layer constituents. Neither bare nor polyelectrolyte-modified PLGA nanoparticles show any signs of cytotoxicity. However, nanoparticles with a positively charged polyelectrolyte as the outermost layer induce hemolysis, whereas uncoated particles or particles with a negatively charged polyelectrolyte as the outermost layer show no hemolytic activity. Furthermore, particles with either PAH or PLL as the outermost layer also demonstrate a higher uptake efficiency by L929 fibroblast cells, due to a higher cell-particle affinity. This study suggests that LbL coating of PLGA nanoparticles can control the release behavior of bioactive molecules as well as the surface activity, therefore providing a promising strategy to enhance the efficiency of nanoparticulate drug-delivery systems.  相似文献

Here, amorphous silica nanoparticles (NPs), one of the most abundant nanomaterials, are used as an example to illustrate the utmost importance of surface coverage by functional groups which critically determines biocompatibility. Silica NPs are functionalized with increasing amounts of amino groups, and the number of surface exposed groups is quantified and characterized by detailed NMR and fluorescamine binding studies. Subsequent biocompatibility studies in the absence of serum demonstrate that, irrespective of surface modification, both plain and amine‐modified silica NPs trigger cell death in RAW 264.7 macrophages. The in vitro results can be confirmed in vivo and are predictive for the inflammatory potential in murine lungs. In the presence of serum proteins, on the other hand, a replacement of only 10% of surface‐active silanol groups by amines is sufficient to suppress cytotoxicity, emphasizing the relevance of exposure conditions. Mechanistic investigations identify a key role of lysosomal injury for cytotoxicity only in the presence, but not in the absence, of serum proteins. In conclusion, this work shows the critical need to rigorously characterize the surface coverage of NPs by their constituent functional groups, as well as the impact of serum, to reliably establish quantitative nanostructure activity relationships and develop safe nanomaterials.  相似文献

The resistance of zwitterionic polymer coatings against the adsorption of proteins and the attachment of pathogenic bacteria is influenced by the precise molecular architecture of the polymers. Two until now rarely studied molecular variables in this context are side chain spacer groups separating the zwitterionic moieties from the polymer backbone and spacer groups separating the cationic and anionic groups within the zwitterionic moiety. Therefore, a set of six poly(sulfobetaine)s and poly(sulfabetaine)s is prepared, in which these spacer groups are systematically varied, incorporating ethylene, propylene, and undecylene side chain spacers, as well as ethylene, propylene, and butylene inter-charge spacers, and their effects on the antifouling behavior are explored. Hence, the corresponding zwitterionic methacrylates are copolymerized with a photo-reactive methacrylate bearing a benzophenone moiety. All zwitterionic coatings reveal hydrophilic properties when immersed in water and those with relatively short spacers show effective suppression of non-specific protein adsorption. Polysulfobetaines outperform the polysulfabetaine ones in terms of resistance against adhesion of bacteria. The overall best fouling protection is observed for the polysulfobetaine bearing a propylene side chain spacer, which coincides with their relatively highest water solubility. The results corroborate previous findings that even apparently minor molecular changes of polyzwitterions can strongly affect their antifouling performance.  相似文献

Particulate therapeutics fabricated from polymeric materials have become increasingly popular over the past several decades. Generally, polymeric systems are easy to synthesize and have tunable parameters, giving them significant potential for wide use in the clinic. They come in many different forms, including nanoparticles, microparticles, and colloidal gels. Here, the current preparation methods for each type of platform are discussed, along with some representative applications. To achieve enhanced performance, lipid coatings and other surface‐modification techniques for introduction of additional functionalities are also mentioned. By outlining the various methods and techniques for their preparation, insights into the utility of these polymeric platforms are provided and their development for biomedical applications further encouraged.  相似文献

In order to comprehensively analyse the structures and the surface states of the nanodiamond particles fabricated by detonation, various apparatus were used to investigate the nanodiamond powder including a high-resolution transmission electron microscope, an energy diffraction spectrometer, an X-ray diffractometer, a Raman spectrometer, a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and differential scanning calorimeter. The grain size of the nanodiamond particles was in the range of 2–12 nm. However, the average grain size of the nanodiamond was approximately 5 nm. Moreover, the shapes of the nanodiamond particles were spherical or elliptical. The nanodiamond as fabricated was very pure, containing almost only the element of carbon. The contents of the impure element including O, Al and S were very small, which came from the synthesis and purification processes when fabricating the nanodiamond. The surfaces of the nanodiamond particles absorbed many functional groups, such as hydroxy, carbonyl, carboxyl and ether-based resin. The initial oxidation temperature of the nanodiamond powder in the air was about 520°C, which was lower than that of the bulk diamond. However, the oxidation temperature of the nanographite existing in the nanodiamond powder was about 228°C. The graphitisation temperature of the nanodiamond powder in the Ar gas was approximately 1305°C.  相似文献

The functionalization of graphene has been extensively used as an effective route for modulating the surface property of graphene, and enhancing the dispersion stability of graphene in aqueous solutions via functionalization has been widely investigated to expand its use for various applications across a range of fields. Herein, an effective approach is described for enhancing the dispersibility of graphene in aqueous solutions at different pH levels via non‐covalent zwitterion functionalization. The results show that a surfactant with electron‐deficient carbon atoms in its backbone structure and large π–π interactive area enables strong interactions with graphene, and the zwitterionic side terminal groups of the molecule support the dispersibility of graphene in various pH conditions. Experimental and computational studies confirm that perylene diimide amino N‐oxide (PDI–NO) allows efficient functionalization and pH‐independent dispersion of graphene enabled by hydration repulsion effects induced by PDI–NO. The PDI–NO functionalized graphene is successfully used in the oxygen evolution reaction as an electron mediator for boosting the electrocatalytic activity of a Ru‐based polyoxometalate catalyst in an acidic medium. The proposed strategy is expected to bring significant advances in producing highly dispersible graphene in aqueous medium with pH‐independent stability, thus broadening the application range of graphene.  相似文献

For applications in nanomedicine, particles need to be functionalized to prevent protein corona formation and/or aggregation. Most advanced strategies take advantage of functional polymers and assembly techniques. Nowadays there is an urgent need for coatings that are tailored according to a broad range of surfaces and that can be produced on a large scale. Herein, we synthesize monophosphonic and multiphosphonic acid based poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymers with the objective of producing efficient coats for metal oxide nanoparticles. Cerium, iron, titanium, and aluminum oxide nanoparticles of different morphologies (spheres, platelets, nanoclusters) and sizes ranging from 7 to 40 nm are studied in physiological and in protein rich cell culture media. It is found that the particles coated with monofunctionalized polymers exhibit a mitigated stability over time (<1 week), whereas the multifunctionalized copolymers provide resilient coatings and long‐term stability (> months). With the latter, PEG densities in the range 0.2–0.5 nm−2 and layer thickness about 10 nm provide excellent performances. The study suggests that the proposed coating allows controlling nanomaterial interfacial properties in biological environments.  相似文献

Intracellular delivery of proteins is a promising strategy of intervention in disease, which relies heavily on the development of efficient delivery platforms due to the cell membrane impermeability of native proteins, particularly for negatively charged large proteins. This work reports a vesicle supra‐assembly approach to synthesize novel amine‐functionalized hollow dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (A‐HDMSN). An amine silica source is introduced into a water–oil reaction solution prior to the addition of conventional silica source tetraethylorthosilicate. This strategy favors the formation of composite vesicles as the building blocks which further assemble into the final product. The obtained A‐HDMSN have a cavity core of ≈170 nm, large dendritic mesopores of 20.7 nm in the shell and high pore volume of 2.67 cm3 g?1. Compared to the calcined counterpart without amine groups (C‐HDMSN), A‐HDMSN possess enhanced loading capacity to large negative proteins (IgG and β‐galactosidase) and improved cellular uptake performance, contributed by the cationic groups. A‐HDMSN enhance the intracellular uptake of β‐galactosidase by up to 5‐fold and 40‐fold compared to C‐HDMSN and free β‐galactosidase, respectively. The active form of β‐galactosidase delivered by A‐HDMSN retains its intracellular catalytic functions.  相似文献

In order to harness the unique properties of nanoparticles for novel clinical applications and to modulate their uptake into specific immune cells we designed a new library of homo‐ and hetero‐functional fluorescence‐encoded gold nanoparticles (Au‐NPs) using different poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(ethylene glycol)‐based polymers for particle coating and stabilization. The encoded particles were fully characterized by UV‐Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, zeta potential and dynamic light scattering. The uptake by human monocyte derived dendritic cells in vitro was studied by confocal laser scanning microscopy and quantified by fluorescence‐activated cell sorting and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. We show how the chemical modification of particle surfaces, for instance by attaching fluorescent dyes, can conceal fundamental particle properties and modulate cellular uptake. In order to mask the influence of fluorescent dyes on cellular uptake while still exploiting its fluorescence for detection, we have created hetero‐functionalized Au‐NPs, which again show typical particle dependent cellular interactions. Our study clearly prove that the thorough characterization of nanoparticles at each modification step in the engineering process is absolutely essential and that it can be necessary to make substantial adjustments of the particles in order to obtain reliable cellular uptake data, which truly reflects particle properties.  相似文献

It is highly desirable to develop a universal nonfouling coating via a simple one‐step dip‐coating method. Developing such a universal coating method for a hydrophilic polymer onto a variety of surfaces with hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties is very challenging. This work demonstrates a versatile and simple method to attach zwitterionic poly(carboxybetaine methacrylate) (PCB), one of the most hydrophilic polymers, onto both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces to render them nonfouling. This is achieved by the coating of a catechol chain end carboxybetaine methacrylate polymer (DOPA‐PCB) assisted by dopamine. The coating process was carried out in water. Water miscible solvents such as methanol and tetrahydrofuran (THF) are added to the coatings if surface wettability is an issue, as for certain hydrophobic surfaces. This versatile coating method was applied to several types of surfaces such as polypropylene (PP), polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS), Teflon, polystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and also on metal oxides such as silicon dioxide.  相似文献
