Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We report a polymeric micelle drug delivery system, which enables selective intracellular uptake with external thermal stimulation, and effective release of a drug at internal acidic endosomal pH. We developed dual temperature- and pH-responsive polymeric micelle encapsulated anti-cancer agent, doxorubicin (DOX). The resultant micelle exhibited a temperature-dependent phase transition at a temperature slightly higher than body temperature, and intracellular uptake of encapsulated DOX was accelerated above phase transition temperature. The cytotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded dual temperature- and pH-responsive micelles against human cervical cancer HeLa cells was significantly greater at 42 °C than at 37 °C, This proof-of-concept synergistic two-step delivery system with enhanced intracellular uptake upon external thermal stimulation and rapid release of DOX at internal acidic endosomal pH was effective against tumor cells in vitro.
