The interaction kinetics of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers with supported lipid bilayers of 1,2-sn-glycero-dimyristoylphosphocholine prepared by the vesicle deposition has been probed by optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In particular, the influence of PAMAM dendrimer generation (G2, G4, and G6) and concentration (1 to 100 nM) on the levels of adsorption and lipid bilayer removal have been determined as a function of time; hence interaction kinetics and mechanisms have been further elucidated. Dendrimer interaction kinetics with the lipid bilayer are concentration dependent in a complex manner, with net bilayer removal at 1 and 100 nM and net adsorption at 10 nM; these effects are irrespective of dendrimer generation. The pseudo first order rate constant for bilayer removal (at 1 and 100 nM) follows the order G6 > G4 > G2. In contrast, the pseudo first order rate constant for adsorption at 10 nM follows the order G2 > G4 > G6. AFM has confirmed expansion of lipid bilayer defects, hole formation, and adsorption to the bilayer or bilayer defects, and their concentration and generation dependence. These findings have implications when designing dendrimers for specific biopharmaceutical activities, e.g., as drugs, drug delivery vehicles, transfection agents, or antimicrobials.  相似文献

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are water-soluble, biocompatible and biodegradable polymers, which have been widely applied in biomedical fields. In this paper, novel physically cross-linked hydrogels composed of PVA and amine-terminated PAMAM dendrimer G6-NH(2) were prepared by cyclic freezing/thawing treatment of aqueous solutions containing PVA and G6-NH(2). The FT-IR analysis and elemental analysis indicated that PAMAM dendrimer G6-NH(2) was successfully introduced into the formed hydrogels, possibly via hydrogen bonds among hydroxyl groups, amide groups and amino groups in PVA and PAMAM dendrimer in the process of freezing-thawing cycle. Compared with physically cross-linked PVA hydrogel, PVA/G6-NH(2) hydrogels show higher swelling ratios and faster re-swelling rate due to the higher hydrophilicity of PAMAM dendrimer G6-NH(2). Higher contents of G6-NH(2) in PVA/G6-NH(2) hydrogels resulted in higher swelling ratios and faster re-swelling rates. With increasing freezing/thawing cyclic times, the swelling ratios and re-swelling rates of PVA/G6-NH(2) hydrogels decreased, which is similar to that of physically cross-linked PVA hydrogel. Combining the special host property of polyamidoamine dendrimer, these novel physically cross-linked hydrogels are expected to have potential use in drug delivery, including improving drug-loading amounts in hydrogels and prolonging drug release time. Swelling ratios of physically cross-linked PVA/G6-NH(2)-50 hydrogels prepared by three, six, nine freezing/thawing cycles. The swelling equilibrium experiments were carried out in distilled water at 25 degrees C.  相似文献

SiO2–poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer hybrids were synthesized via (1) a Michael addition reaction between the dendrimer and 3‐(trimethoxysilyl) propyl acrylate, (2) the dissolution of the formed compound in methanol, and (3) the mixing of the latter solution with a methanol solution of partly hydrolyzed tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and its casting on a glass substrate. 1H NMR indicated that in the first step, 77% of the secondary amines were converted into tertiary amines when the fourth‐generation dendrimer was employed and 46% were converted when the second‐generation dendrimer was used. The final SiO2–PAMAM dendrimer hybrids were obtained via the hydrolysis and condensation of the compound obtained via the Michael addition and the methanol solution of partly hydrolyzed TEOS. The compartmentalized structure of the hybrids due to the compartments of the dendrimers could be controlled by changing the dendrimer and the amount of TEOS. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy micrographs provided information about the structure of the hybrids. Like the PAMAM dendrimer, the SiO2–PAMAM dendrimer hybrids exhibited a high metal ion complexing capacity because of the presence of the compartments of the dendrimer; they can be, however, much more easily handled, and, as demonstrated by thermogravimetric experiments, have much higher thermal resistance. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

We have developed a graphical user interface based dendrimer builder toolkit (DBT) which can be used to generate the dendrimer configuration of desired generation for various dendrimer architectures. The validation of structures generated by this tool was carried out by studying the structural properties of two well known classes of dendrimers: ethylenediamine cored poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer, diaminobutyl cored poly(propylene imine) (PPI) dendrimer. Using full atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulation we have calculated the radius of gyration, shape tensor and monomer density distribution for PAMAM and PPI dendrimer at neutral and high pH. A good agreement between the available simulation and experimental (small angle X‐ray and neutron scattering; SAXS, SANS) results and calculated radius of gyration was observed. With this validation we have used DBT to build another new class of nitrogen cored poly(propyl ether imine) dendrimer and study it's structural features using all atomistic MD simulation. DBT is a versatile tool and can be easily used to generate other dendrimer structures with different chemistry and topology. The use of general amber force field to describe the intra‐molecular interactions allows us to integrate this tool easily with the widely used molecular dynamics software AMBER. This makes our tool a very useful utility which can help to facilitate the study of dendrimer interaction with nucleic acids, protein and lipid bilayer for various biological applications. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.  相似文献

Morphological change of gold-dendrimer nanocomposites by laser irradiation   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Gold-dendrimer nanocomposites are prepared in aqueous solutions in the presence of poly(amidoamine)dendrimers (PAMAM) (generation 3 and 5) or poly(propyleneimine)dendrimers (PPI) (generation 3 and 4) by wet chemical NaBH(4) method. Thus prepared gold-dendrimer nanocomposites are irradiated by laser at 532 nm. UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy reveal that the gold nanoparticles grow with the laser irradiation time as well as the fluence of the laser; in particular, the gold nanoparticles prepared at lower concentrations of PAMAM dendrimer as well as lower generations of PAMAM grow significantly. On the other hand, in the case of PPI dendrimers, the gold nanoparticles hardly grow by irradiation. In addition, dynamic light-scattering measurements show that the laser irradiation markedly promotes the association of the gold-PAMAM G3 dendrimer nanocomposites compared to that of the gold-PAMAM G5 dendrimer nanocomposites, while the sizes of association for the gold-PPI G3, G4 dendrimer nanocomposites hardly change by laser irradiation.  相似文献

We have performed approximately 20-40 ns of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for the generation 8 PAMAM dendrimer in explicit water under varying pH conditions to study the structure of the dendrimer (approximately 156,738 atoms at low pH). This is the first report of such a long MD simulation of a larger generation PAMAM dendrimer including the effect of salt and counterions with explicit water molecules. We find that changing the pH from a high value (approximately 12) to a low value (approximately 3) changes the radius of gyration from Rg = 37.8 to 43.1 A (increasing by 13%). We also find significant back-folding of the primary amines and a large amount of water penetration inside the polymer. The increase in size with decrease in pH is consistent with our earlier studies on G3-G6 and agrees with the Monte Carlo theory by Welch and Muthukumar of G8 (Macromolecules, 1998, 31, 5892) and the experiments on G5 and G8 PAMAM dendrimer by Topp et al. (Macromolecules, 1999, 32, 7232). However, these results disagree dramatically with the interpretations of SANS experiments of G8 PAMAM dendrimers by Nisato et al. (Macromolecules, 2000, 33, 4172) who observe no change in the size of the dendrimer with variations of solution pH and ionic strength. We assume that the disagreement might arise from neglecting nonspherical shape, penetration of water and ions into the core, and aggregation, all of which might depend on pH.  相似文献

Scanning force microscopy (AFM) has been employed to characterize the generation‐9 (G9) poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer packing on a mica surface under various conditions. Well ordered 2‐D arrays from hexagonally packed particles of PAMAM (G9) dendrimers (11.4nm in diameter) were deposited on the mica surface. This may be one of the smallest regular monolayer arrays ever observed. The mechanism considered to be responsible for this 2‐D array packing is the interaction of forces between the dendrimer and the mica surface and between dendrimer molecules as well. Other factors such as molecular interpenetrating and the rigidity of the branch structure obviously play an important role in the 2‐D array formation.  相似文献

The aim of this work is to study the morphological characteristics via fractal analysis and the alterations of the thermotropic behavior of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes, caused by the incorporation of cholesterol, poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer, and MPOx (poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-grad-poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline)) gradient block copolymer (9:1 molar ratio). A gamut of light scattering techniques and differential scanning calorimetry were used in order to extract information on the morphological (in different dispersion media) and thermodynamic characteristics of liposomal drug nanocarriers, respectively. The vesicles’ structure of liposomes has a different thermodynamic content, which corresponds to a different thermotropic behavior, in comparison to pure lipid bilayers. The observed metastable phase only for DPPC liposomes has been considered as a “physical impurity”, which leads to “physical incompatibility” and consequently promotes the aggregation of DPPC liposomes in aqueous media. The incorporation of biomaterials such as PAMAM G4 and MPOx, caused alterations in the thermotropic behavior of DPPC liposomes affecting only the main transition specific enthalpy ΔH. All the other calorimetric parameters remained unaltered. These findings supported the hypothesis that the exceptional stability and transition cooperativity of the chimeric liposomal membrane might be due to the reduction of the vesicle size with the smaller membrane curvature that is indicated by the fractal dimensionality of the system. In conclusion, the results from the thermal analysis of the liposomal systems were in line with the picture of their structural characteristics, as indicated by the interplay between physicochemical and thermodynamical parameters, which determines their fractal morphology.  相似文献

Amide and ester conjugates of aceclofenac with polyamidoamine (PAMAM-G0) dendrimer zero generation and dextran (40 kDa) polymeric carrier, respectively, are presented. The prepared conjugates were characterized by UV, TLC, HPLC, IR, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The average degrees of substitution of amide and ester conjugates were determined and found to be (12.5 ± 0.24) % and (7.5 ± 0.25) %, respectively. The in vitro hydrolysis studies showed that dextran ester conjugate hydrolyzed faster in a phosphate buffer solution of pH 9.0 as compared to PAMAM dendrimer G0 amide conjugate, and followed the first order kinetics. No amount of the drug was regenerated at pH 1.2 in simulated gastric fluid. The dextran conjugate showed short half-life as compared to the PAMAM dendrimer conjugate. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of the dendrimer conjugate were found to be similar to those of the standard drug. Results of chronic ulceroginic activity showed deep ulceration and high ulcer index for aceclofenac, whereas lower ulcer index was found for the PAMAM dendrimer and dextran (40 kDa) conjugates. Experimental data suggest that PAMAM dendrimer and dextran (40 kDa) can be used as carriers for the sustained delivery of aceclofenac along with a remarkable reduction in gastrointestinal toxicity.  相似文献

The interaction of generation 5 (G5) and 7 (G7) poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers with mica-supported Survanta bilayers is studied with atomic force microscopy (AFM). In these experiments, Survanta forms distinct gel and fluid domains with differing lipid composition. Nanoscale defects are induced by the PAMAM dendrimers. The positively charged dendrimers remove lipid from the fluid domains at a significantly greater rate than for the gel domains. Dendrimer accumulation on lipid edges and terraces preceding lipid removal has been directly imaged. Immediately following lipid removal, the mica surface is clean, indicating that lipid defects are not induced by dendrimers binding to the mica substrate and displacing the lipid.  相似文献

低代端酯基PAMAM树形分子存在下银纳米颗粒的制备   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
在低代端酯基PAMAM树形分子(G1.5-COOCH3)存在时,用氢气还原AgNO3制备出银纳米颗粒。用透射电子显微镜(TEM),电子衍射(ED),紫外-可见吸收光谱(UV-Vis)和红外光谱(FT-IR)对所制备的银纳米颗粒进行了表征。实验结果表明,当用氢气作为还原剂时,以低代树形分子为保护剂,通过优化还原条件,可成功制备尺寸稳定、均一的银纳米颗粒,其粒径为2.9±0.5 nm,且所制备的银纳米颗粒的粒径分布较窄。根据树形分子的理论尺寸与制备的银纳米颗粒的粒径关系,可推断出大多数的银纳米颗粒是由多个树形分子所包围而稳定存在。  相似文献

PAMAM树形分子为模板低温制备纳米硫化锌空心球   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Hollow ZnS spheres have been prepared in the presence of generation 3.5 poly (amidoamine) dendrimers with surface ester groups (G3.5-COOCH3 PAMAM dendrimer) as synthetic matrix template. The products obtained were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-Vis absorption. TEM studies show that the hollow spheres with diameters ranging from 80 to 100 nm are prepared. The range of wall thickness was estimated to be about 20~30 nm. It was found that the concentration of PAMAM dendrimer had a significant influence on the formation of hollow ZnS spheres. The possible formation mechanism of the hollow spherical structure is also discussed.  相似文献

Glioblastoma (GB) is a deadly and aggressive cancer of the CNS. Even with extensive resection and chemoradiotherapy, patient survival is still only 15 months. To maintain growth and proliferation, cancer cells require a high oxidative state. Curcumin, a well-known anti-inflammatory antioxidant, is a potential candidate for treatment of GB. To facilitate efficient delivery of therapeutic doses of curcumin into cells, we encapsulated the drug in surface-modified polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers. We studied the in vitro effectiveness of a traditional PAMAM dendrimer (100% amine surface, G4 NH2), surface-modified dendrimer (10% amine and 90% hydroxyl-G4 90/10-Cys), and curcumin (Cur)-encapsulated dendrimer (G4 90/10-Cys-Cur) on three species of glioblastoma cell lines: mouse-GL261, rat-F98, and human-U87. Using an MTT assay for cell viability, we found that G4 90/10-Cys-Cur reduced viability of all three glioblastoma cell lines compared to non-cancerous control cells. Under similar conditions, unencapsulated curcumin was not effective, while the non-modified dendrimer (G4 NH2) caused significant death of both cancerous and normal cells. By harnessing and optimizing the components of PAMAM dendrimers, we are providing a promising new route for delivering cancer therapeutics. Our results with curcumin suggest that antioxidants are good candidates for treating glioblastoma.  相似文献

Third-generation (G3) poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers are simulated approaching 1,2-dimyristoyl- sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) bilayers with fully atomistic molecular dynamics, which enables the calculation of a free energy profile along the approach coordinate. Three different dendrimer terminations are examined: protonated primary amine, uncharged acetamide, and deprotonated carboxylic acid. As the dendrimer and lipids become closer, their attractive force increases (up to 240 pN) and the dendrimer becomes deformed as it interacts with the lipids. The total energy release upon binding of a G3-NH3+, G3-Ac, or G3-COO- dendrimer to a DMPC bilayer is, respectively, 36, 26, or 47 kcal/mol or, equivalently, 5.2, 3.2, or 4.7x10(-3) kcal/g. These results are analyzed in terms of the dendrimers' size, shape, and atomic distributions as well as proximity of individual lipid molecules and particular lipid atoms to the dendrimer. For example, an area of 9.6, 8.2, or 7.9 nm2 is covered on the bilayer for the G3-NH3+, G3-Ac, or G3-COO- dendrimers, respectively, while interacting strongly with 18-13 individual lipid molecules.  相似文献
