Abstract

A series of novel poly(amino acid)s materials were designed to prepare drug-loaded nanoparticles by physical encapsulation and chemical bonding. The side chain of the polymer contains a large number of amino groups, which effectively increases the loading rate of doxorubicin (DOX). The structure contains disulfide bonds that showing a strong response to the redox environment, which can achieve targeted drug release in the tumor microenvironment. Nanoparticles mainly present spherical morphology with the suitable size for participating in systemic circulation. cell experiments demonstrate the non-toxicity and good cellular uptake behavior of polymers. In vivo anti-tumor experiments shows nanoparticles could inhibit tumor growth and effectively reduce the side effects of DOX.
