Novel chitosan-quinoline nanoparticles as anticancer drug nanocarriers were prepared using 2-chloro-3-formylquinoline and 3-formylquinolin-2(1H)-one as non-toxic modifying agents via oil-in-water nanoemulsion technique. Chitosan-quinoline nanoparticles were characterized by FT-IR, UV-vis spectrophotometry, XRD, SEM, AFM and DLS techniques. The morphological and particle size studies demonstrated that drug-loaded chitosan-quinoline nanoparticles have a regular nanorod shape and monolithic structure with the desired particle size of 141 to 174.8 nm and a negative zeta potential of -2.4 to -14.1 mV. Drug loading capacity (LC) and encapsulation efficiency (EE) were achieved using quercetin as a hydrophobic anticancer drug and were about 4.8-9.6% and 65.8-77%, respectively. The in vitro release studies displayed great pH-sensitive release behavior. Evaluation of the anticancer efficacy of quercetin loaded chitosan-quinoline nanoparticles using the in vitro cytotoxicity studies against HeLa cells indicated that the chitosan nanoparticles are a promising candidate for the anticancer drugs delivery.
采用 2-氯-3-甲酰基喹啉和 3-甲酰基喹啉-2(1H)-酮作为无毒修饰剂，通过油包水纳米乳液技术制备了新型壳聚糖-喹啉纳米粒子作为抗癌药物纳米载体。通过傅里叶变换红外光谱（FT-IR）、紫外可见分光光度法、X 射线衍射（XRD）、扫描电子显微镜（SEM）、原子力显微镜（AFM）和动态光散射（DLS）技术对壳聚糖-喹啉纳米粒子进行了表征。形态和粒径研究表明，载药壳聚糖-喹啉纳米粒子具有规则的纳米棒形状和整体结构，所需粒径为 141 至 174.8nm，且具有-2.4 至-14.1mV 的负 zeta 电位。使用山奈酚作为疏水性抗癌药物，通过测定载药量（LC）和包封效率（EE），分别达到了 4.8-9.6%和 65.8-77%。体外释放研究显示出良好的 pH 敏感性释放行为。通过体外细胞毒性研究对载有山奈酚的壳聚糖-喹啉纳米粒子的抗癌功效进行评估，结果表明壳聚糖纳米粒子是一种很有前途的抗癌药物递送候选物。
