Injectable bioactive poly(propylene fumarate) and polycaprolactone based click chemistry bone cement for spinal fusion in rabbits. J Biomed Mater Res A 2024. [PMID: 38644548 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.37725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024]
Abstract
Degenerative spinal pathology is a widespread medical issue, and spine fusion surgeries are frequently performed. In this study, we fabricated an injectable bioactive click chemistry polymer cement for use in spinal fusion and bone regrowth. Taking advantages of the bioorthogonal click reaction, this cement can be crosslinked by itself eliminating the addition of a toxic initiator or catalyst, nor any external energy sources like UV light or heat. Furthermore, nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and microspheres carrying recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and recombinant human vascular endothelial growth factor (rhVEGF) were used to make the cement bioactive for vascular induction and osteointegration. After implantation into a rabbit posterolateral spinal fusion (PLF) model, the cement showed excellent induction of new bone formation and bridging bone, achieving results comparable to autograft control. This is largely due to the osteogenic properties of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and the released rhBMP-2 and rhVEGF growth factors. Since the availability of autograft sources is limited in clinical settings, this injectable bioactive click chemistry cement may be a promising alternative for spine fusion applications in addressing various spinal conditions.

Abstract
Spinal injuries or diseases necessitate effective fusion solutions, and common clinical approaches involve autografts, allografts, and various bone matrix products, each with limitations. To address these challenges, we developed an innovative moldable click chemistry polymer cement that can be shaped by hand and self-cross-linked in situ for spinal fusion. This self-cross-linking cement, enabled by the bioorthogonal click reaction, excludes the need for toxic initiators or external energy sources. The bioactivity of the cement was promoted by incorporating nanohydroxyapatite and microspheres loaded with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor, fostering vascular induction and osteointegration. The release kinetics of growth factors, mechanical properties of the cement, and the ability of the scaffold to support in vitro cell proliferation and differentiation were evaluated. In a rabbit posterolateral spinal fusion model, the moldable cement exhibited remarkable induction of bone regeneration and effective bridging of spine vertebral bodies. This bioactive moldable click polymer cement therefore presents a promising biomaterial for spinal fusion augmentation, offering advantages in safety, ease of application, and enhanced bone regrowth.

Abstract
Targeted release of bioactive molecules for therapeutic purposes is a key area in the biomedical field that is growing quickly, where bioactive molecules are released passively or actively from drug delivery systems (DDSs) or bioactive donors. In the past decade, researchers have identified light as one of the prime stimuli that can implement the efficient spatiotemporally targeted delivery of drugs or gaseous molecules with minimal cytotoxicity and a real-time monitoring ability. This perspective emphasizes recent advances in the photophysical properties of ESIPT- (excited-state intramolecular proton transfer), AIE- (aggregation-induced emission), and AIE + ESIPT-attributed light-activated delivery systems or donors. The three major sections of this perspective describe the distinctive features of DDSs and donors concerning their design, synthesis, photophysical and photochemical properties, and in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrating their relevance as carrier molecules for releasing cancer drugs and gaseous molecules in the biological system.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems based on polymeric nanovehicles are among the most promising treatment regimens for malignant cancers. Such intelligent systems that release payloads in response to the physiological characteristics of tumor sites have several advantages over conventional drug carriers, offering, in particular, enhanced therapeutic effects and decreased toxicity. The tumor microenvironment (TME) is acidic, suggesting the potential of pH-responsive nanovehicles for enhancing treatment specificity and efficacy. The synthetic polypeptide poly(l-histidine) (PLH) is an appropriate candidate for the preparation of pH-responsive nanovehicles because the pKa of PLH (approximately 6.0) is close to the pH of the acidic TME. In addition, the pendent imidazole rings of PLH yield pH-dependent hydrophobic-to-hydrophilic phase transitions in the acidic TME, triggering the destabilization of nanovehicles and the subsequent release of encapsulated chemotherapeutic agents. Herein, we highlight the state-of-the-art design and construction of pH-responsive nanovehicles based on PLH and discuss the future challenges and perspectives of this fascinating biomaterial for targeted cancer treatment and "benchtop-to-clinic" translation.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica-based nanoparticles (MSNs) have gained rapid interest as a drug delivery system (DDS) and demonstrated their versatility in delivering drugs for the treatment of various cancers. However, the drug loading efficiency of MSNs is low and is usually improved by improving textural properties through complicated synthesis methods or by post synthesis modification of the surface that can result in the loss of surface area and modify its drug release properties. In this study, we report a direct single-step synthesis of MSNs with a unique egg-yolk core-shell morphology, large pore volume and a hydrophilic surface, decorated with nitrogen rich surface functionalities for increasing its drug loading capacity. This combination of excellent textural properties and surface functionalisation was achieved by a simple soft templating method using dual surfactants and the silica sources assisted by employing either triethylamine (TEA) or triethanolamine (TEO) as the hydrolysis agent. The morphology and well-ordered mesoporous structure can simply be tuned by changing the pH of the synthesis medium that affects the self-assembly mechanism of the micelles. HRTEM image of samples clearly revealed an egg-yolk core-shell morphology with a thin mesoporous silica shell. The optimised MSN samples synthesized at a pH of 11 using either TEA or TEO depicted a higher doxorubicin (Dox) loading capacity of 425 μg mg-1 and 481 μg mg-1 respectively, as compared to only 347 μg mg-1 for MSN samples due to the uniform distribution of nitrogen functionalities. The anticancer activity of Dox loaded MSNs evaluated in two different prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and LNCaP) showed a higher cytotoxicity of the drug loaded on optimised MSN samples as compared to pristine MSNs without affecting the cellular uptake of the particles. These results suggest that the unique single-step synthesis and functionalisation method resulted in successfully achieving higher drug loading in egg-yolk core-shell nitrogen functionalised MSNs and could be implemented as an effective carrier of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Abstract
Combination therapy through simultaneous delivery of anti-cancer drugs and genes with nano-assembled structure has been proved to be a simple and effective approach for treating breast cancer. In this study, redox-sensitive folate-appended-polyethylenimine-β-cyclodextrin (roFPC) host-guest supramolecular nanoparticles (HGSNPs) were developed as a targeted co-delivery system of doxorubicin (Dox) and Human telomerase reverse transcriptase-small interfering RNA) hTERT siRNA) for potential cancer therapy. The nanotherapeutic system was prepared by loading adamantane-conjugated doxorubicin (Ad-Dox) into roFPC through the supramolecular assembly, followed by electrostatically-driven self-assembly between hTERT siRNA and roFPC/Ad-Dox. The roFPC' host-guest structures allow pH-dependent intracellular drug release in a sustained manner, as well as simultaneous and effective gene transfection. This co-delivery vector displayed combined anti-tumor properties of the Dox-enhanced gene transfection, good water-solubility, and biocompatibility, possesses considerably enhanced hemocompatibility, and especially targets folate receptor-positive cells only at low N/P levels to prompt effective cell apoptosis for cancer treatment.

Abstract
A bifronted cure system for osteosarcoma, a common aggressive bone tumor, is highly in demand to prevail the postsurgical adversities in connection with systemic chemotherapy and repair of critical-size bone defects. The hierarchically porous therapeutic scaffolds presented here are synthesized by free radical-initiated copolymerization of hydroxyethyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate [HEMA/MMA 80:20 and 90:10 mM, H2O/NaCl porogen], which are further surface-phosphorylated [P-PHM] and transformed to bifunctional by impregnating doxorubicin (DOX) [DOXP-PHM]. The P-PHM scaffolds exhibited porous microarchitecture analogous to native cancellous bone (scanning electron microscopy analysis), while X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis authenticated surface phosphorylation. Based on pore characteristics, swelling attributes and slow-pace degradation, P-PHM9163 and P-PHM8263 (HEMA/MMA 90:10 and 80:20 with H2O/NaCl: 60/3.0 weight %, respectively) were chosen from the series and evaluated for osteoinductive efficacy in vitro. Both P-PHM9163 and P-PHM8263 invoked calcium phosphate mineralization in simulated physiological conditions (day 14) with Ca/P ratios of 1.58 and 1.66 respectively, comparable to human bone (1.67). Early biomineralization (Alizarin Red S and von Kossa staining) was evidenced at day 7, while osteoblast differentiation was verified by time-dependent expression of the typical late marker, osteocalcin, at day 14 and 21 in rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells. DOX-loaded P-PHM9163 (DOXP-PHM9163) exhibited pH-responsive (tumor analogous pH; 6.5) sustained release of DOX for prolonged time (up to 45 days) and invoked cellular alterations by cortical stress fiber formation and DNA fragmentation in human osteosarcoma cells leading to early apoptosis (24 h), validated by annexin V/PI staining (FACS) and immunostaining (F-actin/DAPI). Subsequent to DOX release tenure, the scaffold induced the formation of well-organized, porous post-release Ca-P apatite coating (Ca/P is 1.3) in simulated body fluid (day 14) which further endorses the dual functionality of the system. Altogether, the results accentuate that DOXP-PHM9163 is a potential bifunctional therapeutic scaffold capable of extended localized chemotherapeutic delivery in-line with inherent osteogenesis for efficient bone cancer treatment.

Abstract
The tumor-specific targeting of chemotherapeutic agents for specific necrosis of cancer cells without affecting the normal cells poses a great challenge for researchers and scientists. Though extensive research has been carried out to investigate chemotherapy-based targeted drug delivery, the identification of the most promising strategy capable of bypassing non-specific cytotoxicity is still a major concern. Recent advancements in the arena of onco-targeted therapies have enabled safe and effective tumor-specific localization through stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems. Owing to their promising characteristic features, stimuli-responsive drug delivery platforms have revolutionized the chemotherapy-based treatments with added benefits of enhanced bioavailability and selective cytotoxicity of cancer cells compared to the conventional modalities. The insensitivity of stimuli-responsive drug delivery platforms when exposed to normal cells prevents the release of cytotoxic drugs into the normal cells and therefore alleviates the off-target events associated with chemotherapy. Contrastingly, they showed amplified sensitivity and triggered release of chemotherapeutic payload when internalized into the tumor microenvironment causing maximum cytotoxic responses and the induction of cancer cell necrosis. This review focuses on the physical stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems and chemical stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems for triggered cancer chemotherapy through active and/or passive targeting. Moreover, the review also provided a brief insight into the molecular dynamic simulations associated with stimuli-based tumor targeting.

Glycogen as an advantageous polymer carrier in cancer theranostics: Straightforward in vivo evidence. Sci Rep 2020; 10:10411.

Abstract
As a natural polysaccharide polymer, glycogen possesses suitable properties for use as a nanoparticle carrier in cancer theranostics. Not only it is inherently biocompatible, it can also be easily chemically modified with various moieties. Synthetic glycogen conjugates can passively accumulate in tumours due to enhanced permeability of tumour vessels and limited lymphatic drainage (the EPR effect). For this study, we developed and examined a glycogen-based carrier containing a gadolinium chelate and near-infrared fluorescent dye. Our aim was to monitor biodistribution and accumulation in tumour-bearing rats using magnetic resonance and fluorescence imaging. Our data clearly show that these conjugates possess suitable imaging and tumour-targeting properties, and are safe under both in vitro and in vivo conditions. Additional modification of glycogen polymers with poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazolines) led to a reduction in the elimination rate and lower uptake in internal organs (lower whole-body background: 45% and 27% lower MRI signals of oxazoline-based conjugates in the liver and kidneys, respectively compared to the unmodified version). Our results highlight the potential of multimodal glycogen-based nanopolymers as a carrier for drug delivery systems in tumour diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Among modern drug formulations, stimuli-responsive hydrogels also called "smart hydrogels" deserve a special attention. The basic feature of this system is the ability to change their mechanical properties, swelling ability, hydrophilicity, bioactive molecules permeability, etc., influenced by various stimuli, such as temperature, pH, electromagnetic radiation, magnetic field and biological factors. Therefore, stimuli-responsive matrices can be potentially used in tissue engineering, cell cultures and technology of innovative drug delivery systems (DDSs), releasing the active substances under the control of internal or external stimuli. Moreover, smart hydrogels can be used as injectable DDSs, due to gel-sol transition connected with in situ cross-linking process. Innovative smart hydrogel DDSs can be utilized as matrices for targeted therapy, which enhances the effectiveness of tumor chemotherapy and subsequently limits systemic toxicity. External stimulus sensitivity allows remote control over the drug release profile and gel formation. On the other hand, internal factors provide drg accumulation in tumor tissue and reduce the concentration of active drug form in healthy tissue. In this report, we summarise the basic knowledge and chemical strategies for the synthetic smart hydrogel DDSs applied in antitumor therapy.

Abstract
The present study aims in the understanding of the effect of oligo(ethylene glycol)-based biocompatible microgels inner structure on the encapsulation/release mechanisms of different types of cosmetic active molecules. For that, multi-responsive microgels were synthesized using three types of cross-linkers: ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA), oligo(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (OEGDA) and N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA). The inner morphology of the microgels synthesized was studied by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) techniques and no effect of cross-linker type on microgel microstructure was observed in the case of analysing purified microgel dispersions. Moreover, all the microgels synthesized presented conventional swelling/de-swelling behavior as a function of temperature and pH. Two hydrophobic, one hydrophilic, and one macromolecule as cosmetic active molecules were effectively loaded into different microgel particles via hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen-bonding interactions between -OH groups of active molecules and ether oxygens of different microgel particles. Their release profiles as a function of cross-linker type used and encapsulated amounts were studied by Peppas-Sahlin model. No effect of the cross-linker type was observed due to the similar inner structure of all the microgels synthesized.

Abstract
The use of nanocomposites based on biopolymers and nanoparticles for controlled drug release is an attractive notion. We used halloysite nanotubes that were promising candidates for the loading and release of active molecules due to their hollow cavity. Gel beads based on chitosan with uniformly dispersed halloysite nanotubes were obtained by a dropping method. Alginate was used to generate a coating layer over the hybrid gel beads. This proposed procedure succeeded in controlling the morphology at the mesoscale and it had a relevant effect on the release profile of the model drug from the nanotube cavity.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of anticancer drugs into tumor tissues at maximally effective and minimally toxic concentrations is vital for therapeutic success. At present, no method exists that can predict the spatial and temporal distribution of drugs into a target tissue after administration of a specific dose. This prevents accurate estimation of optimal dosage regimens for cancer therapy. Here we present a new method that predicts quantitatively the time-dependent spatial distribution of drugs in tumor tissues at sub-micrometer resolution. This is achieved by modeling the diffusive flow of individual drug molecules through the three-dimensional network of blood-vessels that vascularize the tumor, and into surrounding tissues, using molecular mechanics techniques. By evaluating delivery into tumors supplied by a series of blood-vessel networks with varying degrees of complexity, we show that the optimal dose depends critically on the precise vascular structure. Finally, we apply our method to calculate the optimal dosage of the cancer drug doxil into a section of a mouse ovarian tumor, and demonstrate the enhanced delivery of liposomally administered doxorubicin when compared to free doxorubicin. Comparison with experimental data and a multiple-compartment model show that the model accurately recapitulates known pharmacokinetics and drug-load predictions. In addition, it provides, for the first time, a detailed picture of the spatial dependence of drug uptake into tissues surrounding tumor vasculatures. This approach is fundamentally different to current continuum models, and reveals that the target tumor vascular topology is as important for therapeutic success as the transport properties of the drug delivery platform itself. This sets the stage for revisiting drug dosage calculations.

Abstract
An easy strategy to obtain nanohydrogels within the halloysite nanotube (HNTs) lumen was investigated. Inorganic reverse micelles based on HNTs and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromides were dispersed in chloroform, and the hydrophilic cavity was used as a nanoreactor to confine the gel formation based on alginate cross-linked by calcium ions. Spectroscopy and electron microscopy experiments proved the confinement of the polymer into the HNT lumen and the formation of calcium-mediated networks. Biological tests proved the biocompatibility of the hybrid hydrogel. The nanogel in HNTs was suitable for drug loading and sustained release with the opportunity of triggered burst release by chemical stimuli. Here, we propose a new strategy based on inorganic reverse micelles for nanohydrogel formation, which are suitable for industrial and biological applications as well as for selective and triggered adsorption and/or release.

Abstract
We have developed a novel polymeric expandable cage that can be delivered via a posterior-only surgical approach for the treatment of noncontained vertebral defects. This approach is less invasive than an anterior-only or combined approach and much more cost-effective than currently used expandable metal cages. The polymeric expandable cage is composed of oligo poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate (OPF), a hydrogel that has been previously shown to have excellent nerve and bone tissue biocompatibility. OPF hydrogel cages can expand to twice their original diameter and length within a surgical time frame following hydration. Modulation of parameters such as polymeric network crosslink density or the introduction of charge to the network allowed for precise expansion kinetics. To meet specific requirements due to size variations in patient vertebral bodies, we fabricated a series of molds with varied diameters and explored the expansion kinetics of the OPF cages. Results showed a stable expansion ratio of approximately twofold to the original size within 20 min, regardless of the absolute value of the cage size. Following implantation of a dried OPF cage into a noncontained vertebral defect and its in situ expansion with normal saline, other augmentation biomaterials, such as poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF), can be injected to the lumen of the OPF cage and allowed to crosslink in situ. The OPF/PPF composite scaffold can provide the necessary rigidity and stability to the augmented spine.

Abstract
Surgical site infection (SSI) remains a significant risk for any clean orthopedic surgical procedure. Complications resulting from an SSI often require a second surgery and lengthen patient recovery time. The efficacy of antimicrobial agents delivered to combat SSI is diminished by systemic toxicity, bacterial resistance, and patient compliance to dosing schedules. We submit that development of localized, controlled release formulations for antimicrobial compounds would improve the effectiveness of prophylactic surgical wound antibiotic treatment while decreasing systemic side effects. Our research group developed and characterized oligo(poly(ethylene glycol)fumarate) / sodium methacrylate (OPF/SMA) charged copolymers as biocompatible hydrogel matrices. Here, we report the engineering of this copolymer for use as an antibiotic delivery vehicle in surgical applications. We demonstrate that these hydrogels can be efficiently loaded with vancomycin (over 500 μg drug per mg hydrogel) and this loading mechanism is both time- and charge-dependent. Vancomycin release kinetics are shown to be dependent on copolymer negative charge. In the first 6 hours, we achieved as low as 33.7% release. In the first 24 hours, under 80% of total loaded drug was released. Further, vancomycin release from this system can be extended past four days. Finally, we show that the antimicrobial activity of released vancomycin is equivalent to stock vancomycin in inhibiting the growth of colonies of a clinically derived strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. In summary, our work demonstrates that OPF/SMA hydrogels are appropriate candidates to deliver local antibiotic therapy for prophylaxis of surgical site infection.

Abstract
The growing demand for efficient chemotherapy in many cancers requires novel approaches in target-delivery technologies. Nanomaterials with pH-responsive behavior appear to have potential ability to selectively release the encapsulated molecules by sensing the acidic tumor microenvironment or the low pH found in endosomes. Likewise, polyethylene glycol (PEG)- and poloxamer-modified nanocarriers have been gaining attention regarding their potential to improve the effectiveness of cancer therapy. In this context, DOX-loaded pH-responsive nanoparticles (NPs) modified with PEG or poloxamer were prepared and the effects of these modifiers were evaluated on the overall characteristics of these nanostructures. Chitosan and tripolyphosphate were selected to form NPs by the interaction of oppositely charged compounds. A pH-sensitive lysine-based amphiphile (77KS) was used as a bioactive adjuvant. The strong dependence of 77KS ionization with pH makes this compound an interesting candidate to be used for the design of pH-sensitive devices. The physicochemical characterization of all NPs has been performed, and it was shown that the presence of 77KS clearly promotes a pH-triggered DOX release. Accelerated and continuous release patterns of DOX from CS-NPs under acidic conditions were observed regardless of the presence of PEG or poloxamer. Moreover, photodegradation studies have indicated that the lyophilization of NPs improved DOX stability under UVA radiation. Finally, cytotoxicity experiments have shown the ability of DOX-loaded CS-NPs to kill HeLa tumor cells. Hence, the overall results suggest that these pH-responsive CS-NPs are highly potent delivery systems to target tumor and intracellular environments, rendering them promising DOX carrier systems for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Chemical cross-linking during spray drying offers the potential for green fabrication of microgels with a rapid stimuli response and good blood compatibility and provides a platform for stimuli-responsive hemicellulose microgels (SRHMGs). The cross-linking reaction occurs rapidly in situ at elevated temperature during spray drying, enabling the production of microgels in a large scale within a few minutes. The SRHMGs with an average size range of ∼ 1-4 μm contain O-acetyl-galactoglucomannan as a matrix and poly(acrylic acid), aniline pentamer (AP), and iron as functional additives, which are responsive to external changes in pH, electrochemical stimuli, magnetic field, or dual-stimuli. The surface morphologies, chemical compositions, charge, pH, and mechanical properties of these smart microgels were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, IR, zeta potential measurements, pH evaluation, and quantitative nanomechanical mapping, respectively. Different oxidation states were observed when AP was introduced, as confirmed by UV spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Systematic blood compatibility evaluations revealed that the SRHMGs have good blood compatibility. This bottom-up strategy to synthesize SRHMGs enables a new route to the production of smart microgels for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Bones are the most frequent site for breast cancer cells to settle and spread (metastasise); bone metastasis is considered to have a substantial impact on the quality of patients with common cancers. However, majority of breast cancers develop insensitivity to conventional chemotherapy which provides only palliation and can induce systemic side effects. In this study we evaluated the effect of free Dox and CaCO3/Dox nanocrystal on MCF-7 breast cancer using MTT (3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide), neural red, and lactate dehydrogenase colorimetric assays while DNA fragmentation and BrdU genotoxicity were also examined. Apoptogenic protein Bax, cytochrome C, and caspase-3 protein were analysed. Morphological changes of MCF-7 were determined using contrast light microscope and scanning and transmission electron microscope (SEM and TEM). The findings of the analysis revealed higher toxicity of CaCO3/Dox nanocrystal and effective cells killing compared to free Dox, morphological changes such as formation of apoptotic bodies, membrane blebbing, and absent of microvilli as indicated by the SEM analysis while TEM revealed the presence of chromatin condensation, chromosomal DNA fragmentation, cell shrinkage, and nuclear fragmentation. Results of TUNEL assay verified that most of the cells undergoes apoptosis by internucleosomal fragmentation of genomic DNA whereas the extent of apoptotic cells was calculated using the apoptotic index (AI). Therefore, the biobased calcium carbonate nanocrystals such as Dox carriers may serve as an alternative to conventional delivery system.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) was conjugated with hydrophobic poly(l-histidine) (PHis) to prepare a pH-responsive and tumor-targeted copolymer, hyaluronic acid-g-poly(l-histidine) (HA-PHis), for use as a carrier for anti-cancer drugs. The effect of the degree of substitution (DS) on the pH-responsive behaviour of HA-PHis copolymer micelles was confirmed by studies of particles of different sizes. In vitro drug release studies demonstrated that doxorubicin (DOX) was released from HA-PHis micelles in a pH-dependent manner. In vitro cytotoxicity assays showed that all the blank micelles were nontoxic. However, MTT assay against Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF-7) cells (overexpressed CD44 receptors) showed that DOX-loaded micelles with a low PHis DS were highly cytotoxic. Cellular uptake experiments revealed that these pH-responsive HA-PHis micelles taken up in great amounts by receptor-mediated endocytosis and DOX were efficiently delivered into cytosol. Moreover, micelles with the lowest DS exhibited the highest degree of cellular uptake, which indicated that the micelles were internalized into cells via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis and the carboxylic groups of HA are the active binding sites for CD44 receptors. Endocytosis inhibition experiments and confocal images demonstrated that HA-PHis micelles were internalized into cells mainly via clathrin-mediated endocytosis and delivered to lysosomes, triggering release of DOX into the cytoplasm. These results confirm that the biocompatible pH-responsive HA-PHis micelles are a promising nanosystem for the intracellular targeted delivery of DOX.
