Background: Polymeric nanoparticles are attractive materials that have been widely used in medicine for drug delivery, with therapeutic applications. In our study, polymeric nanoparticles and the anticancer drug, chrysin, were encapsulated into poly (D, L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) poly (ethylene glycol) (PLGA-PEG) nanoparticles for local treatment. Materials and Methods: PLGA: PEG triblock copolymers were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of D, L-lactide and glycolide as an initiator. The bulk properties of these copolymers were characterized using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In addition, the resulting particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Results: The chrysin encapsulation efficiency achieved for polymeric nanoparticles was 70% control of release kinetics. The cytotoxicity of different concentration of pure chrysin and chrysin loaded in PLGA-PEG ($5-640{\mu}M$) on T47-D breast cancer cell line was analyzed by MTT-assay. Conclusions: There is potential for use of these nanoparticles for biomedical applications. Future work should include in vivo investigation of the targeting capability and effectiveness of these nanoparticles in the treatment of breast cancer.

합성 polypeptide인 poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate)[PBLG]를 A-segment로 하고, polyoxypropylene(POP)를 B-segment로 하는 AB 형태 블록공중합체와 polypropyleneglycol을 B-segment로 하는 ABA 형태 블록공중합체를 합성한 후, 이들 공중합체의 생식 호르몬인 progesterone, estrone, estradiol, testosterone의 고분자 매트릭스를 제조하여 이들 스테로이드의 방출량의 변화를 연구하였다. PBLG-POP1와 PBLG-POP2의 매트릭스에서의 progesterone, estradiol 및 testosterone 방출속도와 ABA 형태의 GPG1 공중합체에서의 progesterone, estrone 및 testosterone 방출속도가 염기성용액보다 산성용액에서 더 빠름을 보았다. 한편 PBLG-POP1와 PBLG-POP2의 매트릭스에서의 estrone 그리고 ABA 형태의 GPG1의 매트릭스에서의 estradiol의 방출속도는 산성용액에서 보다 중성 및 염기성용액에서 더 빨랐다. 서로 다른 매트릭스에서의 방출차이는 GPG1 > PBLG-POP1 > PBLG-POP2이며, 방출속도는 스테로이드의 분자량에 반비례함을 보였다.

ABA-type block copolymers composed of poly(L-leucine)(PLL) as the A component and poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) as the B component were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of L-leucine N-carboxyanhydride initiated by primary amino group located at both ends of PEG chain. A silver sulfadiazine(AgSD)-impregnated wound dressing of sponge-type was prepared by the lyophilization method. Morphological structure of this wound dressing obtained by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) was composed of a dense skin layer and a macroporous inner sponge layer. Equilibrium water content(EWC) of wound dressing was above 10%. It increased with an increased of PEO content in the block copolymer due to the hydrophilicity of PEO. AgSD release from AgSD- impregnated wound dressing in PBS buffer(pH=7.4) was dependent on PEG composition in the block copolymer. Therefore, EWC and release of AgSD can be control by PEG composition. Antibacterial capacity of AgSD-impregnated wound dressing was examined in agar plate against Pseudmonas aeruginosa and Stapplococus aruous. Cytotoxicity of the wound dressing was evaluated by studing mouse skin fibroblast(L929). From the behavior of antimicrobial releasing and the investigation of the suppression of bacterial proliferation, it was supposed that the wound dressing containing antibiotics could protect the wound surfaces from bacterial invasion to suppress the bacterial proliferation effectively. In cytotoxicity observation, cellular damage was reduced by the control led released of AgSD from the LEL sponge matrix of AgSD-medicated wound dressing. In vivo test, granulous tissue formation and wound contraction or the AgSD and DHEA impregnated wound dressing were aster than any other groups.

Background: Development of a nanosized polymeric delivery system for erlotinib was the main objective of this research. Materials and Methods: Poly caprolactone-polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (PCEC) copolymers with different compositions were synthesized via ring opening polymerization. Formation of triblock copolymers was confirmed by HNMR as well as FT-IR. Erlotinib loaded nanoparticles were prepared by means of synthesized copolymers with solvent displacement method. Results: Physicochemical properties of obtained polymeric nanoparticles were dependent on composition of used copolymers. Size of particles was decreased with decreasing the PCL/PEG molar ratio in used copolymers. Encapsulation efficiency of prepared formulations was declined by decreasing their particle size. Drug release behavior from the prepared nanoparticles exhibited a sustained pattern without a burst release. From the release profiles, it can be found that erlotinib release rate from polymeric nanoparticles is decreased by increase of CL/PEG molar ratio of prepared block copolymers. Based on MTT assay results, cell growth inhibition of erlotinib has a dose and time dependent pattern. After 72 hours of exposure, the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of erlotinib hydrochloride was appeared to be $14.8{\mu}M$. Conclusions: From the obtained results, it can be concluded that the prepared PCEC nanoparticles in this study might have the potential to be considered as delivery system for erlotinib.

온도감응성 고분자인 폴리 (에틸렌 글리콜)을 기본으로 하는 다이블록 및 트리블록 폴리에스테르 공중합체들은 비독성과 생체적합성 그리고 생분해성 특징 때문에 조직공학 분야 및 주사제형의 약물전달체에서 많은 응용이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다이블록 공중합체를 이용한 솔-젤 전이 현상을 갖는 고분자를 평균분자량 750 g/mole의 메톡시 폴리 (에틸렌 글리콜)과 카프로락톤을 실온에서 HCl $Et_2O$ 존재 하에서 개환중합을 통하여 합성하였다. 이 공중합체를 이용하여 in vivo상에서 골수간엽줄기세포와 골유도물질인 덱사메타손의 존재 여부에 따라 골분화의 가능성을 조사하였다. 조직을 파라핀으로 고정시켜 슬라이드를 제조한 후 hematoxylin & eosin, 본쿠사 및 오스테오칼신 염색을 통하여 골형성 정도를 확인하였다. 결론적으로 덱사메타손이 함유된 젤이 골형성에 도움을 주지만 젤만으로는 강한 골형성을 유도할 수 없으므로 줄기세포나 다른 골형성 유도재료를 사용하면 우수하게 골형성 효과를 가져올 것이라고 판단되었다.
