This study aims to design microgels that are thermo- and pH-sensitive for controlled doxorubicin (Dox) release in response to tumor microenvironment changes. N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) is widely used for thermoresponsive tumor-targeted drug delivery systems for the release of therapeutic payloads in response to temperature changes. Herein, a NIPAAm microgel (MP) that is responsive to temperature and pH was designed for the smart delivery of Dox. MP was made from NIPAAm, and polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) was copolymerized with 5%, 10%, or 15% mol of methacryloylamido hexanoic acid, (CAM5) an amphiphilic acid. We characterized the microgels using FTIR-ATR, DLS, and FESEM. The MP 10% CAM5 exhibited a particle size of 268 nm, with a transition temperature of 44 °C. MP had a drug loading capacity of 13% and entrapment efficiency of 87%. Nearly 100% of the Dox was released at pH 5 and 42 °C, compared to 30% at pH 7.4 and 37 °C. MP 10% CAM5 showed cytocompatibility in HeLa cells using the MTT assay. However, the cell viability assay showed that dox-MP was twice as effective as free Dox. Specifically, 3 μg/mL of free Dox resulted in 74% cell viability, while the same doses of Dox in NP reduced it to 35%. These results are promising for the future tumor-targeted delivery of antineoplastic-drugs, as they may reduce the side effects of Dox.
