Synthesis and Characterization of a Macromolecular Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Delivery System with Hyaluronic Acid As a Carrier.
Biochemical and biophysical research communications(2022)
Abstract
Using hyaluronic acid (HA) as macromolecular drug carriers, a glutathione-responsive imaging drug delivery system HA-SS-a-Gd-DOTA was formed by conjugating gadolinium chelates and cytarabine. This system exhibited T1-reflexivity (21.9 mmol-1 L s-1, 0.5 T) that was higher than that of gadoterate meglumine. In an acidic environment, in vitro drug release reached 63.4% in 24 h. Low cytotoxicity indicated that this system has good biocompatibility. In vivo mouse imaging studies showed that tumor signaling was significantly enhanced. About 58% of the signal enhancement was obtained 50 min after injection of the drug. The degradation of the hyaluronic acid macromolecular chains in vivo makes it an ideal tumor imaging diagnostic agent because it did not cause damage to important organs of the mice.
