摘要:Targeted and efficient delivery of drug to tumor is one of the crucial issues in cancer therapy. In this work, we have successfully designed and prepared the pH-sensitive magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as targeted anticancer drug carriers, in which the MNPs were coated by poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and the obtained PAA@MNPs exhibited a size within 100 nm, good stability, and superparamagnetic responsibility (Ms 45.97 emu/g). Doxorubicin (DOX) can be successfully loaded onto MNPs via electrostatic interaction, and the drug loading content and loading efficiency are 26.4 and 88.1%, respectively. Moreover, the release studies showed that the drug-loaded carriers (MNPs-DOX) had excellent pH sensitivity, 75.6% of the loaded DOX was released at pH 4.0 within 48 h. Importantly, MTT assays in HUVEC and MCF-7 cells demonstrated that MNPs-DOX exhibited high anti-tumor activity, while the PAA@MNPs were practically nontoxic. Thus, our results revealed that PAA@MNPs would be a competitive candidate for biomedical application and MNPs-DOX could be used in targeted cancer therapy.
