Towards Universal Stimuli-Responsive Drug Delivery Systems: Pillar[5]arenes Synthesis and Self-Assembly into Nanocontainers with Tetrazole Polymers.

ABSTRACT: In this work, we have proposed a novel universal stimulus-sensitive nanosized polymer system based on decasubstituted macrocyclic structures-pillar[5]arenes and tetrazole-containing polymers. Decasubstituted pillar[5]arenes containing a large, good leaving tosylate, and phthalimide groups were first synthesized and characterized. Pillar[5]arenes containing primary and tertiary amino groups, capable of interacting with tetrazole-containing polymers, were obtained with high yield by removing the tosylate and phthalimide protection. According to the fluorescence spectroscopy data, a dramatic fluorescence enhancement in the pillar[5]arene/fluorescein/polymer system was observed with decreasing pH from neutral (pH = 7) to acidic (pH = 5). This indicates the destruction of associates and the release of the dye at a pH close to 5. The presented results open a broad range of opportunities for the development of new universal stimulus-sensitive drug delivery systems containing macrocycles and nontoxic tetrazole-based polymers.

Project description:Design, synthesis, and application of cyclodextrin (CD) containing thermoresponsive hydrogels fabricated from thiol-reactive telechelic polymers are reported. Hydrophilic polymers containing 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and/or di(ethylene glycol)methylether methacrylate monomers as side chains and thiol-reactive groups at chain ends were synthesized. A series of hydrogels was fabricated using thiol-ene conjugation of these thiol-reactive polymers with multivalent thiol-containing CDs as crosslinkers. Clear and transparent hydrogels were obtained with good conversion (79-89%) by utilizing the "nucleophilic" and "radical" thiol-ene "click" reactions. Analysis of the amount of residual thiol groups in these hydrogels using Ellman's reagent suggested that gels with a moderately well-defined network structure were obtained. Hydrogels fabricated using different telechelic polymers were examined for their properties such as morphology, equilibrium water uptake, and rheological characteristics. Cytocompatibility of these hydrogels was ascertained by a cell viability assay that demonstrated low toxicity toward fibroblast cells. Thereafter, the CD-containing hydrogels were evaluated for the loading and controlled release of puerarin, an antiglaucoma drug. Utilization of thermoresponsive polymers as the matrix for these hydrogels allows use of temperature as a stimulus to modulate the drug release. A slower and more sustained drug release was observed at physiological temperatures compared to ambient conditions. The effect of temperature on the elasticity of the hydrogel was investigated rheologically to demonstrate that the collapse of the network structure occurs near physiological temperatures. The increased hydrophobicity and compactness of the gel matrix at higher temperatures results in a slower drug release. The strategy employed here demonstrates that tuning the matrix composition of hydrogels with well-defined network structures through appropriate choice of responsive copolymers allows design of materials with control of their physical properties and drug-release behavior.
