RESUMO
A mixed drug self-delivery system(DSDS)with high drug content(＞50％)was developed to regulate pH-triggered drug release,based on two doxorubicin(DOX)-DOX dimmers:D-DOXADH and D-DOXcar con-jugated with acid-labile dynamic covalent bonds(hydrazone and carbamate,respectively)and stabilized with PEGylated D-DOXADH(D-DOXADH-PEG).Owing to the different stability of the dynamic covalent bonds in the two dimers and the noncovalent interaction between them,pH-triggered drug release could be easily regulated by adjusting the feeding ratios of the two DOX-DOX dimers in the mixed DSDS.Similar in vitro cellular toxicity was achieved with the mixed DSDS nanoparticles prepared with different feeding ratios.The mixed DSDS nanoparticles had a similar DOX content and diameter but different drug releasing rates.The MTT assays revealed that a high anti-tumor efficacy could be achieved with the slow-release mixed DSDS nanoparticles.
