Synthesis, Colloidal Characterization and Targetability of Phenylboronic Acid Functionalized α-Tocopheryl Polyethylene Glycol Succinate in Cancer Cells
This study reports targetable micelles developed after covalent functionalization of α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS) with amino phenylboronic acid (APBA). Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopic results showed successful attachment of APBA to the hydrophili...

description | This study reports targetable micelles developed after covalent functionalization of α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS) with amino phenylboronic acid (APBA). Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopic results showed successful attachment of APBA to the hydrophilic segment of TPGS. Dynamic light scattering and small-angle neutron scattering studies revealed that the conjugate self-assembled in water to produce spherical core-shell micelles (14–20 nm) which remained stable against temperature (ca. 25–45 °C) and pH changes. The micelles could solubilize a high payload of paclitaxel (PLX) without exhibiting changes in the average size. However, at the saturation solubility, drug molecules migrated from the core to the shell region and engaged with APBA groups via π–π stacking interaction. Confocal microscopy and cell sorting analyses verified the effective translocation ability of TPGS-APBA micelles in sialic acid (SA) expressing MDA-MB-453 cells. At equivalent PLX dose, TPGS-APBA micelles showed about a twofold improvement in apoptotic death among the cells exposed for 2 h. Our findings indicate that the attachment of APBA can be a potential strategy for improving the intra-cellular localization of carriers among cancer cells expressing SA residues. |
