Self-assembled micelles prepared from bio-based hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and polylactide amphiphilic block copolymers for anti-tumor drug release
Abstract : Fully bio-based amphiphilic diblock copolymers were synthesized from hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and amino-terminated poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) or poly(l-lactide-co-dl-lactide) (PLA) by reductive amination. The resulting HPMC-PLLA and HPMC-PLA copolymers with various hydrophobic block lengths were characterized by NMR, DOSY-NMR and FT-IR. Micelles were obtained by self-assembly of copolymers in aqueous medium. The micelles are spherical in shape, and the micelle size ranges from 150 to 180 nm with narrow distribution. The critical micelle concentration decreases with increasing PLA block length. Paclitaxel was loaded in micelles. Enhanced drug loading is obtained with increase of PLA block length. A biphasic release profile is observed with a burst of 40% followed by slower release up to 80%. MTT assay indicates the good cytocompatibility of HPMC-PLA micelles. SRB assay shows a significant cytotoxicity of paclitaxel-loaded micelles against SK-BR-3cells. It is thus concluded that bio-based HPMC-PLA block copolymers could be promising nano-carrier of anti-tumor drugs.
