Polymeric prodrug-based delivery systems have been extensively studied to find a better solution for the limitations of a single drug and to improve the therapeutic and pharmacodynamics properties of chemotherapeutic agents, which can lead to efficient therapy. In this study, redox-responsive disulfide bond-containing amphiphilic heparin-chlorambucil conjugated polymeric prodrugs were designed and synthesized to enhance anti-tumor activities of chlorambucil. The conjugated prodrug could be self-assembled to form spherical vesicles with 61.33% chlorambucil grafting efficiency. The cell viability test results showed that the prodrug was biocompatible with normal cells (HaCaT) and that it selectively killed tumor cells (HeLa cells). The uptake of prodrugs by HeLa cells increased with time. Therefore, the designed prodrugs can be a better alternative as delivery vehicles for the chlorambucil controlled release in cancer cells.
基于聚合物前药的递送系统已得到广泛研究,旨在为单一药物的局限性找到更好的解决方案,并改善化疗药物的治疗和药效学特性,从而实现高效治疗。在本研究中,设计并合成了含氧化还原响应性二硫键的两亲性肝素-苯丁酸氮芥共轭聚合物前药,以增强苯丁酸氮芥的抗肿瘤活性。共轭前药可自组装形成球形囊泡,苯丁酸氮芥接枝效率为61.33%。细胞活力测试结果表明,该前药与正常细胞(HaCaT)具有生物相容性,并且能选择性杀死肿瘤细胞(HeLa细胞)。HeLa细胞对前药的摄取随时间增加。因此,所设计的前药作为癌细胞中苯丁酸氮芥控释的递送载体可能是更好的选择。
