One-Pot Conversion of RAFT-Generated Multifunctional Block Copolymers of HPMA to Doxorubicin Conjugated Acid- and Reductant-Sensitive Crosslinked Micelles

Abstract

N-(2-Hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) containing polymers that are widely used as anticancer drug carriers. We have synthesized new amphiphilic block copolymers of HPMA with a functional monomer 2-(2-pyridyldisulfide)ethylmethacrylate (PDSM) via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. In a one-pot reaction, the versatility of PDS groups on poly(PDSM)- b-poly(HPMA) was used to conjugate an anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), and also simultaneously crosslink the micellar assemblies via acid-cleavable hydrazone bonds and reducible disulfide bonds. DOX-conjugated crosslinked micelles with an average diameter of approximately 60 nm were observed to be formed in aqueous medium. Disintegration of the micelles into unimers in the presence of a disulfide reducing agent confirmed the crosslinking via disulfide bonds. While the release of DOX from the crosslinked micelles at pH 5.0 was faster compared to the release at pH 7.4, a high proportion of released DOX was found to retain the original active structure. Overall results demonstrate the simplicity and the versatility of the poly(PDSM)- b-poly(HPMA) system, which are potentially important in the design of new generation of polymer therapeutics.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
