Nanoencapsulation of a Far-Red Absorbing Phthalocyanine into Poly(benzylmalate) Biopolymers and Modulation of Their Photodynamic Efficiency. Biomacromolecules 2024; 25:3261-3270.

Abstract
Two different poly(benzylmalate) biopolymers, a hydrophobic non-PEGylated (PMLABe73) and an amphiphilic PEGylated derivative (PEG42-b-PMLABe73), have been used to encapsulate a phthalocyanine chosen for its substitution pattern that is highly suitable for photodynamic therapy. Different phthalocyanine/(co)polymers ratios have been used for the nanoprecipitation. A set of six nanoparticles has been obtained. If the amphiphilic PEGylated copolymer proved to be slightly more efficient for the encapsulation and to lower the aggregation of the phthalocyanine inside the nanoparticles, it is, however, the hydrophobic PMLABe73-based nanoparticles that exhibited the best photodynamic efficiency.

Encapsulation of Hydrophobic Porphyrins into Biocompatible Nanoparticles: An Easy Way to Benefit of Their Two-Photon Phototherapeutic Effect without Hydrophilic Functionalization. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14102358. [PMID: 35625963 PMCID: PMC9139875 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14102358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Efficient photosensitizers for photodyanmic therapy (PDT) need to be soluble in physiologic media. This requirement often complicates significantly the chemical access to such compounds, resulting in lower availability and higher production costs for the best representatives. Given that their screening and selection is often initially conducted in organic media from series of hydrophobic model compounds, the possibility to use directly such hydrophobic photosensitizers in real PDT studies was highly desirable to speed up their definitive identification but also to alleviate their cost. In this respect, PMLABe polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) were presently probed as nanocarriers to water-solubilize hydophobic star-shaped porphyrin-based which turned out to be promising oxygen photosensitizers for theranostic approaches. We show here that PDT conducted using such NPs loaded with these compounds is as efficient than when functional hydrosoluble analogues of these photosensitiers are tested alone and that tracking of the photosensitizer by fluorescence imaging is even easier. Abstract Star-shaped hydrophobic porphyrins, acting as powerful fluorescent two-photon photosensitizers for oxygen in organic solvents, can easily be loaded into PMLABe polymeric nanoparticles at various concentrations. In this contribution, the performance of these porphyrin-containing nanoparticles in terms of photodynamic therapy (PDT) is compared to those of the corresponding water-soluble porphyrin analogues when irradiated in MCF-7 cancer cells. While quite promising results are obtained for performing PDT with these nanoparticles, validating this approach as a mean for using more easily accessible and less expensive photosensitizers, from a synthetic perspective, we also show that their luminescence can still be used for bioimaging purposes in spite of their confinement in the nanoparticles, validating also the use of these nano-objects for theranostic purposes.

Abstract
In order to identify the peptides, selected from the literature, that exhibit the strongest tropism towards human hepatoma cells, cell uptake assays were performed using biotinylated synthetic peptides bound to fluorescent streptavidin or engrafted onto nanoparticles (NPs), prepared from biotin-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(benzyl malate) (Biot-PEG-b-PMLABe) via streptavidin bridging. Two peptides, derived from the circumsporozoite protein of Plasmodium berghei- (CPB) and George Baker (GB) Virus A (GBVA10-9), strongly enhanced the endocytosis of both streptavidin conjugates and NPs in hepatoma cells, compared to primary human hepatocytes and non-hepatic cells. Unexpectedly, the uptake of CPB- and GBVA10-9 functionalized PEG-b-PMLABe-based NPs by hepatoma cells involved, at least in part, the peptide binding to apolipoproteins, which would promote NP’s interactions with cell membrane receptors of HDL particles. In addition, CPB and GBVA10-9 peptide–streptavidin conjugates favored the uptake by hepatoma cells over that of the human macrophages, known to strongly internalize nanoparticles by phagocytosis. These two peptides are promising candidate ligands for targeting hepatocellular carcinomas.

Abstract
Hydrophobic and amphiphilic derivatives of the biocompatible and biodegradable poly(dimethylmalic acid) (PdiMeMLA), varying by the nature of the lateral chains and the length of each block, respectively, have been synthesized by anionic ring-opening polymerization (aROP) of the corresponding monomers using an initiator/base system, which allowed for very good control over the (co)polymers' characteristics (molar masses, dispersity, nature of end-chains). Hydrophobic and core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) were then prepared by nanoprecipitation of hydrophobic homopolymers and amphiphilic block copolymers, respectively. Negatively charged NPs, showing hydrodynamic diameters (Dh) between 50 and 130 nm and narrow size distributions (0.08 < PDI < 0.22) depending on the (co)polymers nature, were obtained and characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), zetametry, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Finally, the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of the obtained NPs were evaluated in vitro using the hepatoma HepaRG cell line. Our results showed that both cytotoxicity and cellular uptake were influenced by the nature of the (co)polymer constituting the NPs.
