All-Trans Retinoic Acid Grafted Poly Beta-Amino Ester Nanoparticles: A Novel Anti-angiogenic Drug Delivery System.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Developing chemotherapy with nanoplatforms offers a promising strategy for effective cancer treatment. In the present study, we propose a novel all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) grafted poly beta-amino ester (PBAE) copolymer for preparing nanoparticles (NPs). Methods: ATRA grafted PBAE (ATRA-g-PBAE) copolymer was synthesized by grafting ATRA to PBAE; it was characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared, and thermogravimetric analysis. ATRA-g-PBAE NPs were prepared by the solvent displacement method. Design-Expert software was employed to optimize size of NPs. The morphology was evaluated by transmission electron microscope, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy was applied for drug release. Cytotoxicity was evaluated toward HUVEC cell line, and the 3D collagencytodex model was used to evaluate anti-angiogenic property of PBAE, ATRA, and NPs. Results: The optimum size of the NPs was 139.4 ± 1.41 nm. After 21 days, 66.09% ± 1.39 and 42.14% ± 1.07 of ATRA were released from NPs at pH 5.8 and 7.4, respectively. Cell culture studies demonstrated antiangiogenic effects of ATRA-g-PBAE NPs. Anti-angiogenesis IC50 was 0.007 mg/mL for NPs (equal to 0.002 mg/mL of ATRA) and 0.005 mg/mL for free ATRA. Conclusion: This study proposes the ATRA-g-PBAE NPs with inherent anti-angiogenic effects as promising carrier for anticancer drugs with purpose of dual drug delivery.

Project description:Recently, biomaterials have been designed to contain redox-sensitive moieties, such as thiols and disulfides, to impart responsive degradation and/or controlled release. However, due to the high sensitivity of cellular redox-based systems which maintain free-radical homeostasis (e.g. glutathione/glutathione disulfide), if these biomaterials modify the cellular redox environment, they may inadvertently affect cellular compatibility and/or oxidative stress defenses. In this work, we hypothesize that the degradation products of a poly(β-amino ester) (PBAE) hydrogel formed with redox sensitive disulfide (cystamine) crosslinking could serve as a supplement to the environmental cellular antioxidant defenses. Upon introduction into a reducing environment, these disulfide-containing hydrogels cleave to present bound-thiol groups, yet remain in the bulk form at up to 66 mol% cystamine of the total amines. By controlling the molar fraction of cystamine, it was apparent that the thiol content varied human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) viability IC50 values across an order of magnitude. Further, upon introduction of an enzymatic oxidative stress generator to the cell culture (HX/XO), pre-incubated thiolated hydrogel degradation products conferred cellular and mitochondrial protection from acute oxidative stress, whereas non-reduced disulfide-containing degradation products offered no protection. This polymer may be an advantageous implantable drug delivery system for use in acute oxidative stress prophylaxis and/or chronic oxidative stress cell therapies due to its solid/liquid reversibility in a redox environment, controlled thiolation, high loading capacity through covalent drug-addition, and simple post-synthesis modification which bound-thiols introduce. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE:In this work, we demonstrate a unique property of disulfide containing degradable biomaterials. By changing the redox state of the degradation products (from oxidized to reduced), it is possible to increase the IC50 of the material by an order of magnitude. This dramatic shift is linked directly to the oxidative stress response of the cells and suggests a possible mechanism by which one can tune the cellular response to degradable biomaterials.
