Amphiphilic copolymers with polylactic acid (PLA) chains grafted onto hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) have been synthesized and characterized. The copolymer nanoparticles with corona and core structure were formed by self-assembly in aqueous solution. The loading capacity and association efficiency were up to 23% and 86%, respectively. Protein release profiles with different copolymer compositions and BSA concentrations all showed a burst effect followed by a continuous release phase. The released BSA from the copolymer nanoparticles remained in its original structure over a period of 4 days, as testified by circular dichroism spectroscopy. Furthermore, cell viability research suggested good biocompatibility of the copolymer nanoparticles, which have a promising potential for protein delivery system.
具有接枝到支化聚甘油(HPG)上的聚乳酸(PLA)链的两亲性共聚物已被合成并进行了表征。该共聚物在水溶液中通过自组装形成具有冠和核结构的胶束。载药量和结合效率分别高达 23%和 86%。具有不同共聚物组成和 BSA 浓度的蛋白质释放曲线均显示出突释效应,随后是持续释放阶段。圆二色光谱证明,共聚物胶束中释放的 BSA 在 4 天内保持其原始结构。此外,细胞活力研究表明共聚物胶束具有良好的生物相容性,有望成为蛋白质递送系统。
