| Popis: |
A novel thermal-responsive β-cyclodextrin-based magnetic hydrogel [β-cyclodextrin-graft-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)/Fe3O4 (β-CD-g-PNIPAAm/Fe3O4)] was fabricated as a novel nanomedicine for chemo/hyperthermia treatment of cancer cells. Firstly, β-CD was modified by maleic anhydride (MA) followed by copolymerization with NIPAAm monomer and thiol-end capped Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) in the presence of a crosslinker through acrylamide–thiol polymerization system to afford a magnetic hydrogel. The saturation magnetization (δs) value for developed hydrogel was determined to be 8.2 emu g−1. The hydrogel was physically loaded with an anticancer agent, doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox). The encapsulation efficiency (EE) of drug into the hydrogel was obtained as 73 %. The system represented acceptable thermal-triggered drug release behavior that best fitted with Higuchi model, demonstrating the release of drug is mostly controlled by diffusion mechanism. The anticancer performance of the β-CD-g-PNIPAAm/Fe3O4-Dox was evaluated using MCF7 cells by MTT-assay. In addition, flow cytometry analyses showed considerable cellular uptake of Dox in the cells treated with β-CD-g-PNIPAAm/Fe3O4-Dox (∼70 %) compared to free Dox (∼28 %). As results, in time period of 48 h by combination of chemo- and hyperthermia-therapies, the developed system displayed greater anticancer efficiency than the free Dox. |
