Click polymerization for the synthesis of reduction-responsive polymeric prodrug
Source abstract
Abstract
Click polymerization is a powerful polymerization technique for the construction of new macromolecules with well-defined structures and multifaceted functionalities. Here, we synthesize reduction-responsive polymeric prodrug PEG-b-(PSS-g-MTX)-b-PEG containing disulfide bonds and pendant methotrexate (MTX) via two-step click polymerization followed by conjugating MTX to pendant hydroxyl. MTX content in polymeric prodrug is 13.5%. Polymeric prodrug is able to form polymeric micelles by self-assembly in aqueous solution. Polymeric micelles are spherical nanoparticles with tens of nanometers in size. Of note, polymeric micelles are reduction-responsive due to disulfide bonds in the backbone of PEG-b-(PSS-g-MTX)-b-PEG and could release pendant drugs in the presence of the reducing agents such as dl-dithiothreitol (DTT).
