제목 Photodynamically Controlled Delivery of Anticancer Therapeutics Using Folate-PEG-PPADT Block Copolymer Micelles
초록 The presence of a high concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important biomarker of cancers. Poly(1,4-phenyleneacetone dimethylene thioketal) (PPADT) was introduced for oral delivery of siRNA to ROS-rich inflammation sites in the intestine. In this work, we fabricated ROS-sensitive polymer micelles using an amphiphilic block copolymer of poly(ethylene glycol) and PPADT for light-activated anticancer therapy. The ROS-sensitive polymeric micelles, which coencapsulate photosensitizers and paclitaxel, degraded upon light illumination for controlled burst release of paclitaxel to the tumour cells. The targeting efficacy of the polymer micelles for HeLa cells increased through the introduction of folic acid on the surface of the polymer micelles, efficiently causing cytotoxicitiy to HeLa cells at a low concentration of paclitaxel in vitro and in vivo.
