Synthesis,self-assembly,and pH-responsive drug release of PHMEMA-PEG-PHMEMA ABA triblock copolymers

Abstract

A series of tertiary amine containing PHMEMA-PEG-PHMEMA ABA triblock copolymers were synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using bromine-capped poly(ethylene glycol) (Br-PEG-Br) and 2-(hexamethyleneimino)ethyl methacrylate (HMEMA) as macro-initiator and monomers, respectively. The chemical structures and molecular weights of triblock copolymers were characterized by ¹H NMR and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The self-assembly behaviors of copolymers in different pH conditions were studied by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Triblock copolymers self-assembled into micelles in water (pH 7.4) and the micelles disassembled at acidic pH (pH 5.0). Anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) was used as a drug model and physically encapsulated into polymeric micelles. The drug release of DOX-loaded polymeric micelles was pH-responsive; the drug-loaded micelles that had higher contents of tertiary amine in polymer pendant groups showed faster release speed. In addition, the drug-loaded micelles showed excellent inhibition efficacy against HeLa cells in vitro.     

Global existence and large-time behavior of a parabolic phase-field model with Neumann boundary conditions

In this paper, we continue to study an initial boundary value problems to a model describing the evolution in time of diffusive phase interfaces in sea ice growth. In a previous paper, the global existence and the large-time behavior of weak solutions in one space was studied under Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here, we show that the global existence of weak solutions and the large-time behavior are also studied under Neumann boundary condition. In this paper, we study in space dimension lower than or equal to 3.

PERIODIC SOLUTION FOR p-LAPLACIAN DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION WITH A DEVIATING ARGUMENT

By using the theory of coincidence degree, we study a kind of periodic solution to p-Laplacian differential equation with a deviating argument such as ((?)p(x'(t)))' f(x(t)) g(x(t - r(t))) = e(t), a result on the existence of periodic solution is obtained.

A sharp inequality for martingales and its applications

In this paper, the best constant with respect to an inequality for martingales in Hall and Heyde (1980) is obtained. As a consequence, some large deviations with martingale difference and moving average process are established.     

The stability of neutral stochastic delay differential equations with Poisson jumps by fixed points

In the paper, the asymptotic mean square stability of the zero solution for neutral stochastic delay differential equations with Poisson jumps is studied by fixed points theory without Lyapunov functions. The coefficient functions have not been asked for a fixed sign, and the sufficient condition for mean square stability has been obtained. Therefore, some well-known results are improved and generalized.
