Environmentally friendly, one-pot synthesis of folic acid-decorated graphene oxide-based drug delivery system
Source abstract
Abstract
A targeted drug delivery system based on graphene oxide (GO) was produced via one-pot synthesis method, taking advantages of the self-polymerization of the dopamine (DA). The polymerization of dopamine resulted in polydopamine capped GO nanocomposite. Meanwhile, the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin (DOX) can be loaded in the nanocomposite and the tumor cell targeting molecule folic acid (FA) can also been immobilized on the nanocomposite surface simultaneously. The size of the obtained FA-decorated GO-based drug delivery system (DA/GO(DOX)–FA) is about 600 nm. It renders a sustained drug release manner. The cell culture results reveal that the FA-decorated GO-based drug delivery system (DA/GO(DOX)–FA) via one-pot method shows property of targeted killing of cancer cells in vitro. This one-pot method just needs the pH adjusting to induce the self-polymerization of DA, but excludes the fussy chemical grafting process and the organic solvents, which make it an environmentally friendly method to synthesize FA-decorated GO-based drug delivery system.
