Download or read book Rational Design and Development of Dual Location Dual Stimuli Responsive Polymeric Nanocarriers for Drug Delivery written by Newsha Arezi and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design and development of smart nano-sized delivery devices for controlled drug release in response to endogenous stimuli (such as acidic pH and glutathione (GSH)) inherently found in tumor tissue is a promising platform in tumor-targeting nanomedicine. This platform allows for the maximization of therapeutic efficacy whilst reducing unwanted off-target side effects. Particularly, polymeric nanocarriers self-assembled from amphiphilic block copolymers (ABCP) have gained significant attention due of their size tunability and enhanced colloidal stability. Well-controlled ABCPs enable the formation of core-shell micelles in aqueous solutions having hydrophobic cores, enabling the physical entrapment of hydrophobic anticancer drugs, surrounded with hydrophilic coronas. Further, an incorporation of stimuli-responsive degradable (SRD) linkages in ABCPs allows for controlled micelle degradation and drug release at the site of action. In this research, a dual location dual stimuli-responsive degradation (DL-DSRD) strategy is explored as a versatile platform for intracellular tumor-targeting drug delivery. Two ABCPs exhibiting dual acidic pH/reduction-responsive degradation are studied. The self-assembled ABCPs form colloidally stable nanoassemblies showing synergistically rapid release of encapsulated doxorubicin (a clinically used anticancer drug) at pH = 5.4 in 10 mM GSH solution caused by the cleavage of acid-labile and disulfide linkages. In addition, a new approach utilizing carbonylimidazole-hydroxyl coupling chemistry is explored to synthesize reduction-degradable poly(carbonate-disulfides) labeled with disulfide linkage on the backbones. They possess multi-functionalities as well as tunable and rapid reductive-degradation through main-chain degradation mechanism. Further, the versatility of the approach is demonstrated with the synthesis of an amphiphilic triblock copolymer exhibiting DL-DSRD responses. Overall, the results obtained through this research contribute to the advancement of current understanding and helps guide the design of improved SRD-exhibiting ABCP-based drug delivery nanocarriers.

Download or read book Design and Development of Redox responsive Nanocarriers for Therapeutic Delivery written by Priyaa Prasad and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biologically active agents like drugs, proteins and nucleic acids have been widely explored as therapeutics for numerous diseases and particularly for anti-cancer therapy. Delivering drugs, proteins and nucleic acids efficiently and safely is however the looming challenge in the field of chemical biology. A significant percentage of drugs are poorly water-soluble which affects its pharmacological properties for instance bioavailability, stability and dose dependent toxicity. Drug development and discovery is a time consuming and expensive process which typically takes more than a decade and costs more than 10 million dollars. Nucleic acids are also known to degrade rapidly by nucleases. Therapeutic delivery using a delivery vehicle is realized to be advantageous in many fronts. Delivery vehicles, specifically nanocarriers improve the physiochemical properties of conventional drugs like water solubility, biodistribution, reduce dose dependent toxicity, bioavailability and help in targeting. For nucleic acids, they essentially protect it from degradation and aid in intracellular transfection. Polymeric nanocarrier systems show superior characteristics as therapeutic delivery vehicles. Polymers are extremely versatile in terms of synthesis, incorporating reactive functional groups for stimuli responsive behavior and facile tunability of hydrophobic and/or hydrophilic segments for structure property relationship. Self-crosslinked polymeric nanocarriers developed in our group have shown important properties for therapeutic delivery like redox responsive release mechanism, size tunability, encapsulation stability etc. We have utilized this system as the blueprint and developed it to improve and address some crucial properties of drug delivery vehicles. We designed a crosslinked polymeric nanogel system composed of molecules that are approved by the FDA as safe and non-toxic. The nanogels were found to be highly non-toxic when evaluated by in vitro cell viability assay and a more rigorous mouse pre-implantation embryo toxicity assay. We were also interested to tackle the issue of poor drug loading capacity of nanocarriers and designed a core crosslinked polymer and designed methods to quantify drug loading in crosslinked polymeric systems where we were also curious in studying the structure property relationship of different drugs with varying LogP values. Lastly, we designed a safe delivery system for nucleic acids which utilizes the cationic charge in the polymer for complexation with nucleic acid but through convenient crosslinking strategy we could eliminate the charged moieties making it a promising strategy for nucleic acid delivery.
