This study evaluated the physical and optical characteristics of hydrophilic ophthalmic polymer with addition of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine in the basic hydrogel ophthalmic lens material, and in particular, the utility of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine as an ophthalmic contact lens material for ophthalmologic devices was investigated. In this study 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine were used as additives. For the preparation of hydrogel lens 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, acrylic acid and a cross-linker EGDMA were copolymerized in the presence of AIBN as an initiator. The physical properties of the produced polymers were measured as followings. The refractive index of 1.433~1.393, water content of 35.95~53.16%, contact angle of $70.6{\sim}51.24^{\circ}$, UVB transmittance of 81.2~82.4%, UV-B transmittance of 81.2~82.4% and visible transmittance of 91.4~92.2% were obtained. Also, in case of protein absorption, the measurement showed that absorbance of Reference and MPC-10 sample was 0.2598 and 0.2250 respectively. Based on the results of this study, ophthalmic lens material containing 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine is expected to be used usefully as a material for high wettability and inhibitor of protein adsorption for ophthalmic hydrogel lens.

악성 조직의 온열 치료는 성공적인 암 치료 방법의 하나로서 방사선 치료 및 화학 요법에 비해 생체 적합성이 우수하고 비교적 온화한 조건에서 사용할 수 있어 최근 큰 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 온열 치료를 목적으로 생체 적합성 고분자인 poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine/fluorescein O-methacrylate) (P(MPC/FOM))를 코팅한 초상자성 산화철 나노 입자 (IONP)를 제조하고 관련 특성을 분석하였다. 15 nm 직경을 갖는 IONP는 먼저 공침법에 의해 제조된 후, 4-cyanopentanoic acid dithiobenzoate (CTP) 을 사용하여 IONP의 표면을 개질하였으며, 이 후 MPC 및 FOM 단량체의 reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) 공중합을 통해 P(MPC/FOM)의 코로나 층을 형성시켰다. 투과 전자 현미경 (TEM)과 동적 광 산란 (DLS) 분석을 통해 IONP@P(MPC/FOM)의 형태 및 수력학적 크기를 확인할 수 있었으며, 열 중량 분석 (TGA)을 통해 P(MPC/FOM) 코로나 층의 형성을 확인하였다. 또한 교류 자기장을 이용해 IONP 분산액을 노출시킨 결과, 0.2 중량 %의 IONP @ P(MPC / FOM) 수분산액이 온열 치료에 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The effect of poly[2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine] (pMPC) on the skin permeation property was investigated by performing in vitro skin permeation study of a model drug, nicotinic acid (NA). Effect of pMPC polymer in donor solution on skin permeation rates was evaluated using side-by-side diffusion cells. Also, the structural alterations in the stratum corneum (SC), inter-lamellar bilayer (ILB) and dermis layers in pMPC-treated and -untreated skin sections were investigated with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The permeation profile of NA without pMPC in donor solution showed biphasic mode: initial $1^{st} phase and 2^{nd}$ hydration phase. The sudden, more than 10-fold increase in flux from the initial steady state (43.5 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) to the $2^{nd}$ hydration phase (457.3 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) suggests the disruption of skin barrier function due to extensive hydration. The permeation profile of NA with 3% pMPC in the donor solution showed monophasic pattern: the steady state flux (10.9 $\mu g/cm^2$/hr) without abrupt increase of the flux. The degree of NA permeation rate decreased in a concentration-dependent manner of pMPC. TEM of skin equilibrated with water or 2% pMPC for 12 h showed that corneocytes are still cohesive and epidermis is tightly bound to dermis in 2% pMPC-treated skin, while wider separation between corneocytes and focal dilations in inter-cellular spaces were observed in water-treated skin. This result suggests that pMPC could protect the barrier property of the stratum corneum by preventing the disruption of ILB structure caused by extensive skin hydration during skin permeation study.

To maintain activity in a coenzyme/enzyme mixture system, such as ${\beta}$-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)/dehydrogenase, the water-soluble 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) polymers as an additive were synthesized and investigated for their stabilizing function. The inhibitor for the NADH/dehydrogenase reaction was spontaneously formed when the NADH was stored in the dehydrogenase solution. Therefore, we hypothesized that if the additive polymer could interact with an inhibitor without any adverse effect on the dehydrogenase, the activity in the NADH/dehydrogenase mixture could be maintained. We selected lactose dehydrogenase (LDH) as the enzyme, and the NADH was dissolved and incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ in the LDH solution containing the polymers. The phospholipid polymers used in this study were poly(MPC) (PMPC), poly(MPC-co-3-trimethylammonium-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate chloride) (PMQ) and poly[MPC-co-potassium 3-methacryloyloxypropyl sulfonate ($MSO_3$)] ($PMMSO_3$). The poly($MSO_3$) was used as a reference. For the PMQ and $PMSO_3$ aqueous solutions, the activity of the NADH/LDH mixture system decreased with incubation time as the same level or lower than that in the Tris buffered solution in the absence of the polymers. However, for the poly($MPC-co-MSO_3$) ($PMMSO_3$) aqueous solution, the activity of the NADH/LDH mixed system was six times higher than that in the buffered solution even after a 3-days incubation. The LDH activity was 1.5-1.8 times higher in the presence of the $PMMSO_3$ compared with that in the $PMSO_3$ solution. The mixture of two polymers, poly(MPC) and poly($MSO_3$), did not produce any stabilization. Thus, both the MPC and $MSO_3$ units in the polymer chain had important and cooperative effects for stabilizing the NADH/LDH mixture.

인공수정체로 사용되고 있는 소수성 아크릴 하이드로겔의 단백질 흡착 감소와 기능을 향상시키기 위한 하이드로겔을 제조하여 인공수정체로의 응용성을 살펴보고자 한다. 소수성 아크릴 인공수정체는 ethyleneglycol phenyletheracrylate(EGPEA), Styrene, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA)를 사용하여 제작하였고 첨가제로 polyvinyl pyrrolidone(PVP)와 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine(MPC)를 사용하였다. 인공수정체의 물리적 특성을 평가하기 위해 함수율, 습윤성, 광투과율 및 단백질 흡착량을 측정하였다. 첨가제를 넣은 모든 시료의 함수율과 습윤성은 증가하였고 단백질 흡착량은 감소하였다. 특히 MPC가 포함된 시료의 단백질 흡착량은 더욱 감소하였다. PVP와 MPC를 첨가한 소수성 아크릴 하이드로겔은 기본적인 물리적 특성을 가지면서 단백질 흡착을 감소시킴으로써 기능이 향상된 인공수정체로의 응용이 가능하다는 것을 확인하였다.

Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) was carried out to produce high-density poly(MPC) brush on silicon wafer. Frictional properties of poly(MPC) was investigated by by sliding a glass ball (${\phi}\;10\;nm$) on the substrates over a distance of 20 mm at a sliding velocity of 90 mm/min under loading of 0.49 N at 298 K. Higher friction coefficients were observed in dry N2 atmosphere and in toluene condition, whereas the friction coefficients decreased to 0.02 in humid air and in water. It is supposed that water-swollen poly(MPC) brush works as a lubricant to moderate the interaction between brush and probe.

A methacrylate monomer having phospholipid polar group and cell membrane structure is known as highly biocompatible. Based on these properties, new biocompatible multi-functional textile finishing agent was developed using phospolipid copolymer. 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) was synthesized using 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), 2-chloro-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane (COP), trimethylamine (TMA) and triethylamine (TEA), and then polymerized to prepare MPC copolymer by radical polymerization using AIBN. The structures of MPC and MPCE were characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR and will be evaluated as textile finishing agent in further study.

Poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA) was blended with poly[$\omega$-methacryloyloxyethyl phospho-rylcholine-co-ethylhexylmethacrylate (PMEH)] (PLGA/PMEH) to endow with new functionality i.e., to improve the cell-, tissue- and blood-compatibility. The characteristics of surface properties were investigated by measurement of contact angle goniometer, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA). NIH/3T3 fibroblast and bovine aortic endothelial cell were cultured on control and PLGA/PMEH surfaces for the evaluation of ceil attachment and proliferation in terms of surface functionality such as the concentration of phosphoryl-choline. Also, the behavior of platelet adhesion on PLGA/PMEH was observed in terms of the surface functionality. The contact angles on control and PLGA/PMEH surfaces decreased with increasing PMEH content from 75$^{\circ}$ to about 43$^{\circ}$. It was observed from the FTIR-ATR spectra that phosphorylcholine groups are gradually increased with increasing blended amount of MPC. The experimental P percent values from ESCA analysis were more 3.28∼7.4 times than that of the theoretical P percent for each blend films. These results clearly indicated that the MPC units were concentrated on the surface of PLGA/PMEH blend. The control and PLGA/PMEH films with 0.5 to 10.0 wt% concentration of PMEH were used to evaluate cell adhesion and growth in terms of phosphorylcholine functionality and wettability. Cell adhesion and growth on PLGA/PMEH surfaces were less active than those of control and both cell number decreased with increasing PMEH contents without the effect of surface wettability. It can be explained that the fibronectin adsorption decreased with an increase in the surface density of phosphorylcholine functional group. One can conclude the amount of the protein adsorption and the adhesion number of cells can be controlled and nonspecifically reduced by the introduction with phosphorylcholine group. Morphology of the adhered platelets on the PLGA/PMEH surface showed lower activating than control and the number of adhered platelets on the PLGA/PMEH sample decreased with increasing the phosphorylcholine contents. The amount of fibrinogen adsorbed on the PLGA/PMEH surface demonstrated that the phospholipid polar group played an important role in reducing protein adsorption on the surface. In conclusion, this surface modification technique might be effectively used PLGA film and scaffolds for controlling the adhesion and growth of cell and tissue, furthermore, blood compatibility of the PLGA was improved by blending of the MPC polymer for the application of tissue engineering fields.
