Dendritic polyurethane-based prodrug as unimolecular micelles for precise ultrasound-activated localized drug delivery

Ultrasound has been recognized as an exciting tool to enhance the therapeutic efficacy in tumor chemotherapy owing to the triggered drug release, facilitated intracellular drug delivery, and improved spatial precision. Aiming for a precise localized drug delivery, novel dendritic polyurethane-based prodrug (DOX-DPU-PEG) was fabricated with a drug content of 18.9% here by conjugating DOX onto the end groups of the functionalized dendritic polyurethane via acid-labile imine bonds. It could easily form unimolecular micelles around 38 nm. Compared with the non-covalently drug-loaded unimolecular micelles (DOX@Ph-DPU-PEG), they showed excellent pH/ultrasound dual-triggered drug release performance, with drug leakage of only 4% at pH 7.4, but cumulative release of 14% and 88% at pH 5.0 without and with ultrasound, respectively. The ultrasound responsiveness was attributed to the unique strawberry-shaped topological structure of the DOX-DPU-PEG, in which DOX was embedded in the skin layer of the hydrophobic DPU cores. With ultrasound, the DOX-DPU-PEG unimolecular micelles possessed enhanced tumor growth inhibition than free DOX but showed no obvious cytotoxicity on the tumor cells without ultrasound. Such feature makes them promising potential for precise localized drug delivery.

Preparation and Spectroscopic of Vanadyl(Ⅱ) Vitamin D_3 Amino Acid Mixed Complexes as Insulin Mimetic Drug

A new six intraperitoneal injection insulin-mimetic vanadyl(Ⅱ) compounds [(VD-1₃)(VO+2)(AA-1_n)] (where (n=1～6); AA₁=isoleucine, AA₂=threonine, AA₃=proline, AA₄=phenylalanine, AA₅=lysine and AA₆=glutamine) were synthesized by the chemical reactions between vitamin D₃ (VD₃), VOSO₄ and amino acids (AA_n) with equal molar ratio 1∶1∶1 in neutralized media. The structures of these complexes were elucidated by spectroscopic methods like, infrared and solid reflectance spectroscopes. Magnetic moments and electronic spectra reveal square pyramid geometrical structure of the complexes. The infrared spectra assignments of these complexes revealed that the chelation towards vanadyl(Ⅳ) ions existed via deprotonation of the hydroxyl group of VD₃ drug ligand and so amino acids act as bidentate ligand via N-amino and O-carboxylate groups. The anti-diabetic efficiency of these complexes were evaluated against streptozotocin induced diabetic male albino rats.     

Het(aryl)isatin to het(aryl)aminoindoline scaffold hopping: A route to selective inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a large family of zinc-dependent endoproteases known to exert multiple regulatory roles in tumor progression. A variety of chemical classes have been explored for targeting individual MMP isoforms. In the present study, we further developed our isatin based scaffold BB0223107 capable of binding to and inactivating MMP-2 in a zinc-independent manner (Agamennone et al., 2016). Forty four new compounds were synthesized based on the modified BB0223107. All compounds were tested in enzyme inhibition assays against MMP-2, ?8 and ?13. SAR studies demonstrated that 5-het(aryl)-3-aminoindolin-2-ones (37–39) were active toward MMP-2 and MMP-13. The most potent compounds 33 and 37 displayed an IC₅₀ of 3 µM against MMP-13 and showed a negligible activity toward MMP-8; almost all new compounds were inactive toward MMP-8. Replacement of the isatin ring with a biaryl system (compound 33) did not decrease the potency against MMP-13 but reduced the selectivity. Structure-based computational studies were carried out to rationalize the inhibitory activity data. The analysis of binding geometries confirmed that all fragments occupied the S1′ site in the three enzymes while no ligand was able to bind the catalytic zinc ion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of 3-aminoindolin-2-one-based MMP inhibitors that, based on the computer modeling study, do not coordinate the zinc ion. Thus, the het(aryl)-3-aminoindolin-2-one derivatives emerge as a drug-like and promising chemotype that, along with the hetaryl variations, represents an alternative and thrifty tool for chemical space exploration aimed at MMP inhibitor design.

基于混合空穴注入层的湿法制备高效蓝光热激活延迟有机发光二极管

在溶液法制备有机电致发光器件(OLEDs)的研究中, PEDOT∶PSS由于具有较好的成膜性与高透光性而常被用作器件的空穴注入层。但相关研究表明, PEDOT∶PSS本身稳定性较差以及功函数较低,这使得溶液法制备OLEDs的性能差且不稳定。蓝色作为全彩色的三基色之一,制备高效的蓝光器件对于实现高质量显示器件和固态照明装置必不可少。而目前溶液法制备蓝光OLEDs的器件效率普遍较差,针对此问题,本文利用传统的蓝光热激活延迟荧光发光(TADF)材料DMAC-DPS作为发光层,用溶液法制备了蓝光TADF OLEDs,通过在PEDOT∶PSS中掺杂PSS-Na制备混合空穴注入层(mix-HIL)来提高空穴注入层的功函数,研究其对于蓝光TADF OLEDs器件性能的影响。首先在PEDOT∶PSS水溶液中掺入不同体积的PSS-Na溶液,在相同条件下旋涂制膜,进行器件制备。通过观测各个实验组器件的电致发光(EL)光谱,发现掺入PSS-Na后器件EL谱存在光谱蓝移的现象,这是由于掺入PSS-Na水溶液后, mix-HIL层的厚度有所降低,使得在微腔效应作用下, EL光谱发生蓝移。通过对比各组器件的电流密度-电压-亮度(J-V-L)曲线及其计算所得器件的电流效率,结果显示随着PSS-Na的掺入,器件的亮度和电流都有所增大,器件的电流效率也得到了提升,当掺杂比例为0.5∶0.5(PEDOT∶PSS/PSS-Na)时提升幅度最大(亮度提升86.7%,电流效率提升34.3%)。通过在瞬态电致发光测试过程中施加或撤去驱动电压观测了器件EL强度的变化,分析了在混合空穴注入层/发光层(mix-HIL/EML)界面处的电荷积累情况。实验证明,通过在PEDOT∶PSS中掺杂PSS-Na制备mix-HIL获得了蓝光TADF OLEDs器件性能的提升,这是一个获得高效率溶液法制备OLEDs的可行方法。     

理想与还原Fe2O3[001]表面上汞吸附协同催化CO分解作用

Mercury emission from coal during chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is an inevitable process, which can lead to adverse interactions with the surface of the oxygen carrier, thereby affecting the interfacial redox reactions. Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the mechanism of elemental mercury (Hg⁰) adsorption and the synergetic effect of Hg⁰ on the catalytic decomposition of CO over a perfect surface (Fe₂O₃[001]), as well as a series of reduced surfaces (Fe₂O_2.75, Fe₂O_2.5, Fe₂O_2.25, Fe₂O_1.625, Fe₂O_0.875, Fe₂O_0.375 and Fe) during a deep CLC process. In this study, Hg⁰ was physically adsorbed on to a perfect Fe₂O₃ surface, and then chemically adsorbed on to a series of reduced surfaces. The adsorption of Hg⁰ inhibited the formation of meaningful interactions between CO and Fe₂O₃[Fe₂O_2.75, Fe₂O_2.5 and Fe₂O_2.25] and hindered the efficient transport of oxygen to oxidize CO into CO₂. In contrast, this process promoted the interactions between CO and Fe₂O_1.625[Fe₂O_0.875, Fe₂O_0.375, and Fe], favoring the catalytic decomposition of CO on these surfaces, which accelerated the carbon deposit reducing CLC efficiency. Rationally controlling the reduction degree of the oxygen carrier could therefore be used to either decrease the adsorption of Hg⁰ or depress the deposition of carbon, which are both crucial for the optimization of CLC processes.     

Direct synthesis of Poly(Ԑ-Caprolactone)-block-poly (glycidyl methacrylate) copolymer and its usage as a potential nano micelles carrier for hydrophobic drugs

Ring-opening (ROP) and enzymatic copolymerization (ECP) are among the most widely used approaches for synthesizing copolymers of polycaprolactone (PCL). It involves multiple-step reactions and the utilization of enzymes that make the process a lot more complicated, time consuming, and expensive. Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) has been adopted to synthesize a novel amphiphilic copolymer in our study. The study presents a method to eliminate the ROP/ECP multiple steps in monomer polymerization thus making the process simpler and smoother. The synthesis of cationic polymer micelles copolymer of PCL-PGMA (polycaprolactone grafted poly glycidyl methacrylate) was carried out using direct functionalization of hydroxy group in crude PCL to achieve a higher degree of functionalization, i.e., 12.8% for macroinitiator. FTIR and ¹H-NMR confirmed the successful synthesis of the copolymer with better control over the molecular weight with a PDI (1.84). DSC and XRD results showed the reduction of crystallinity by 86.81%, making copolymer more compatible for drug delivery application. The synthesized copolymer was further converted to nano-micelles drug carrier having an average size of 96.08 ± 21.22 nm. The drug encapsulation efficiency achieved was 60.0 ± 1.7%, and nano-micelles rendered a slow and controlled release of naproxen with long-term storage stability.     

Leucine-coated cobalt ferrite nanoparticles: Synthesis,characterization and potential biomedical applications for drug delivery

This work was primarily focused on the synthesis, characterization and biomedical applications of cobalt ferrite (CoFe₂O₄) nanoparticles, which were synthesized by a facile solvothermal method using an amino acid of Leucine (Leu) as the surface coating agents. The morphology, structure and properties of the as-synthesized uncoated and Leu-coated CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles were characterized in detail by means of XRD, SEM, TEM, DLS, FTIR, XPS, TGA and SQUID. More importantly, it was found that the Leu-coated CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles can be used as the efficient drug delivery with a drug loading capacity of 0.32 mg/mg for doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), and the loaded DOX demonstrated a sustained and progressive release manner. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies towards the HeLa cells were carried out, and the results indicated that the Leu-coated CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles exhibited a relatively high cell viability compared with that of bare CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles and the DOX loaded Leu-coated CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles presented an obvious cytotoxic effect on HeLa cells.
