ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To prepare anti-tumor drug H6(lactone compound)polymeric micelles,and to investigate its in vitro anti-tumor effects. METHODS:Using mPEG2000-PCL4000 as carrier,H6/mPEG2000-PCL4000 micelles were prepared. Using particle size, PDI and 48 h whether to produce precipitation as indexes,feeding ratio,H6 concentration,volume ratio of organic solvent were screened. The encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading amount of micelle were all detected. MTT assay was used to detect the tox-icity of micelles and H6 solution to human non-small cell lung cancer cell A549 and human lung cancer cell H460. RESULTS:The screened formulation was as follows as feeding ratio of 1∶25,H6 concentration of 2 mg/mL,the ratio of ethanol to chloroform of 1∶1(V/V). The parameters of prepared H6/mPEG2000-PCL4000 micelles were as follows as particle size of(40.74±0.116 3)nm,PDI of(0.101±0.006),encapsulation efficiency of(94.87±0.016 3)%,drug-loading amount of(7.07±0.001 5)%(n=3). IC50 of mi-celles and H6 solution to A549 cell were 15.62 and 12.57 nmol/L;IC50 of micelles and H6 solution to H460 cell were 27.68 and 15.19 nmol/L. CONCLUSIONS:H6/mPEG2000-PCL4000 micelles are prepared successfully and show in vitro anti-tumor effects.
