Effect of different mass ratio of PLA: PEG segments in PLA-PEG-PLA copolymers on the physicochemical characterization and DNA release profile
Background: Adapting controlled release technologies to the delivery of DNA has the great potential to overcome extracellular barriers that limit gene delivery. This study investigates the effect of different mass ratio of PLA: PEG in the various tri block poly (lactic acid)-poly (ethylene glycol) - Poly (lactic acid) copolymer (PLA-PEG-PLA) on the properties of the resulting nanoparticles. Me...
متن کاملPreparation, stability and cytocompatibility of magnetic/PLA-PEG hybrids.
Hybrid nanocolloids based on biodegradable polymers of poly(lactide) (PLA) or poly(lactide)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLA-PEG) and hydrophobic iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of ca. 5 nm are prepared via a self-assembly route. The magnetic nanoparticles are organized in superclusters inside the hydrophobic core of PLA-PEG micelles or cholate-stabilized PLA nanospheres. The hydrodyna...
متن کاملMicro- to nanoscale structure of biocompatible PLA-PEO-PLA hydrogels.
We observe large-scale structures in hydrogels of poly(l-lactide)-poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(l-lactide) (PLLA-PEO-PLLA) ranging in size from a few hundred nanometers to several micrometers. These structures are apparent through both ultra-small angle scattering (USAS) techniques and confocal microscopy. The hydrogels showed power law scattering in the USAS regime, which is indicative of scatteri...
متن کاملPEG-PLA hydrogels by stereocomplexation for tissue engineering of cartilage.
PEG–PLA hydrogels were prepared by stereocomplexation of poly(lactide) (PLA) blocks of opposite chirality. Gelation occurred upon mixing aqueous solutions of both enantiomers of PEG6500–(PLA)2, PEG12500–(PLA)2 and PEG21800–(PLA)8 block copolymers. Stereocomplexed hydrogels from PEG6500–(PLA)2 polymers were found to be stable up to ~37 8C, while those from PEG12500–(PLA)2 and PEG21800–(PLA)8 blo...
متن کاملInfluence of network structure on the degradation of photo-cross-linked PLA-b-PEG-b-PLA hydrogels.
Triblock copolymers of functionalized poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(lactic acid) (PLA-b-PEG-b-PLA) have been widely investigated as precursors for fabricating resorbable polymeric drug delivery vehicles and tissue engineering scaffolds. Previous studies show degradation and erosion behavior of PLA-b-PEG-b-PLA hydrogels to rely on macromer chemistry as well as structural chara...
