    Notes: Abstract Purpose. Doxorubicin was chemically conjugated to a terminal end group of poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) [PLGA] and the doxorubicin-PLGA conjugate was formulated into nanoparticles to sustain the release of doxorubicin. Methods. A hydroxyl terminal group of PLGA was activated by p-nitrophenyl chloroformate and reacted with a primary amine group of doxorubicin for conjugation. The conjugates were fabricated into ca. 300 nm size nanoparticles by a spontaneous emulsion-solvent diffusion method. The amount of released doxorubicin and its PLGA oligomer conjugates was quantitated as a function of time. The cytotoxicity of the released species was determined using a HepG2 cell line. Results. Loading efficiency and loading percentage of doxorubicin-PLGA conjugate within the nanoparticles were 96.6% and 3.45 (w/w) %, respectively while those for unconjugated doxorubicin were 6.7% and 0.26 (w/w) %, respectively. Both formulation parameters increased dramatically due to the hydrophobically modified doxorubicin by the conjugation of PLGA. The nanoparticles consisting of the conjugate exhibited sustained release over 25 days, whereas those containing unconjugated free doxorubicin showed rapid doxorubicin release in 5 days. A mixture of doxorubicin and its PLGA oligomer conjugates released from the nanoparticles had comparable IC50 value in a HepG2 cell line compared to that of free doxorubicin. Sustained drug release was attributed to the chemical degradation of conjugated PLGA backbone, which permitted water solubilization and subsequent release of doxorubicin conjugated PLGA oligomers into the medium. Conclusions. The conjugation approach of doxorubicin to PLGA was potentially useful for nanoparticle formulations that require high drug loading and sustained release. The doxorubicin-PLGA oligomer conjugate released in the medium demonstrated a slightly lower cytotoxic activity than free doxorubicin in a HepG2 cell line.

    Notes: Abstract Protein release from degradable polymer matrices, composed of poly(L-lactic acid) and its blends with Pluronic surfactant, was investigated with and without the aqueous coating of an adsorptive water-soluble polymer, polyethyleneimine (PEI). PEI is a highly branched cationic polymer containing primary, secondary, and tertiary amino groups in its backbone. The treatment of PEI for PLA/Pluronic blend films exhibited a remarkable decrease in the “burst” release of protein at an initial stage and a significant extension in the protein release period. Protein release profiles could be controlled by varying PEI treatment time and its concentration. Our results suggest that PEI diffuses into the polymer matrices and crosslinks protein molecules by ionic interactions. Such a PEI–protein network near the surface region of matrix may act as a diffusional barrier for further release of protein molecules.

    Notes: Arthrobacter simplex cells, which convert the steroid hydrocortisone to prednisolone, have been entrapped in a thermally reversible hydrogel. Such hydrogels exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) wherein the gel shrinks and deswells when it is warmed through its LCST, and then reversibly expands and reswells when it is cooled below the LCST. The immobilized cell-hydrogel system has been thermally cycled between two temperatures, each below the LCST. The upper temperature was selected to be just below the LCST, where the gel deswells but does not collapse, as it does at the LCST. The thermal cycling acts like a “hydraulic pump” which enhances mass transfer of the substrate (hydrocortisone) in and the product (prednisolone) out of the gel, thereby increasing steroid conversion dramatically relative to isothermal operation at either the upper or lower temperature. The increased conversion can also be due in part to reduced product inhibition. Mass transfer resistance and product inhibition are among the most serious problems in immobilized biocatalyst technology and thermal cycling of LCST hydrogels is both a novel and useful approach to minimizing these problems.

    Notes: Monodisperse hydrogel beads composed of calcium alginate and crosslinked polyNIPAAm (N-isopropylacrylamide) were synthesized based on a simultaneous interpenetrating network process. With increasing the temperature above the phase transition temperature of polyNIPAAm, a core-shell type of hydrogel beads was developed; polyNIPAAm-enriched core region and Ca-alginate-enriched outer shell layer were observed. The thermally reversible formation of the core-shell double structure in the IPN hydrogel beads was applied for the temperature modulated drug release using indomethacin as a model drug.

    Notes: Poly(L-lactic acid)-coated polyisobutylcyanoacrylate microcapsules containing protein molecules were prepared by a single-step procedure based on either a double-emulsion-solvent evaporation method or a spray-drying method. First, an aqueous protein solution was emulsified in an organic phase of methylene chloride containing a wall-forming monomer (isobutylcyanoacrylate), various kinds of poly(L-lactic acid), and a surfactant. An immediate polymerization process of isobutylcyanoacrylate takes place at the W/O interface upon contact with hydroxide ion in the aqueous phase, leading to the formation of a polyisobutylcyanoacrylate wall around the aqueous droplets. This W/O emulsion was reemulsified in an aqueous solution to promote the solvent removal and, consequently, the precipitation of poly(L-lactic acid) onto polyisobutylcyanoacrylate microcapsules or was spraydried to directly deposit the poly(L-lactic acid) on the wall. Three proteins, bovine serum albumin, horseradish peroxidase, and tetanus toxoid, were encapsulated in these poly(L-lactic acid)-coated polyisobutylcyanoacrylate microcapsules, and then their release profiles were examined in vitro as a function of molecular weight of poly(L-lactic acid) and its copolymers with glycolic acid. These formulations exhibited a low “burst” effect at initial incubation stages and released the proteins for extended periods of time. Subcutaneous injections of the tetanus toxoid-loaded microparticles into rats showed that the time course of immunization (antibody titer) can be controlled by the type of polymer matrices used. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of pH-sensitive hydrogels that exhibit volume phase transition phenomena have been synthesized in aqueous solution and characterized with respect to their dynamic swelling behaviors. Positively charged hydrogels were prepared by copolymerizing varying ratios of N-isopropylacrylamide and NN′-dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide. The hydrogels based on a temperature-sensitive hydrogel demonstrate a large change of equilibrium swelling in response to small variations of pH and/or temperature. These hydrogels exhibit different lower critical solution temperature (LCST) ranges depending on the environmental pH values. Below their LCST, they exhibit small and broad pH sensitivities normally observed in most hydrophilic polyelectrolyte gels, but above their LCST, they exhibit sharp pH dependent phase transition behaviors. The pH-dependent phase transition is strongly affected by temperature, while the temperature-dependent transition is, in turn, largely influenced by the pH. As the temperature is raised, the transitional degree of gel swelling change becomes sharper and larger, and the phase transition pH value shifts to a lower pH. It was also found that swelling is faster than deswelling for these cationic hydrogels, which suggests the existence of a water diffusion barrier during the deswelling. The swelling kinetics of initially dry and glassy gels were strongly dependent on both the pH value and temperature.
