چکیده
A novel coumarin-centered amphiphilic star-block polymer of C-(PDMAEMA(80)-b-PS(8))(3) has been designed to investigate the pH-induced accompanying outward movement of hydrophobic coumarin centers within the polymer micelles upon protonation.

Surface Behavior of PSn(P2VP-b-PtBA)n Heteroarm Stars
We report the surface behavior andmorphologies of two series of pH-responsive amphiphilic heteroarm star block copolymers. In this respect, we studied polystyrene/poly(2-vinylpyridine)/poly(tertbutylacrylate), PSn(P2VP-PtBA)n, heteroarm star block terpolymers and their precursors, PSnP2VPn, star copolymers. These star block polymers differ in architecture (copolymer vs terpolymer), block topolo...
متن کاملSystematic design and application of unimolecular star-like block copolymer micelles: a coarse-grained simulation study.
Unimolecular polymeric micelles have several features, such as thermodynamic stability, small particle size, biocompatibility, and the ability to internalize hydrophobic molecules. These micelles have recently attracted significant attention in various applications, such as nano-reactors, catalysis, and drug delivery. However, few attempts have explored the formation mechanisms and conditions o...

Magnetothermally responsive drug-loaded micelles were designed and prepared for cancer therapy. These specially designed micelles are composed of the thermo-responsive star-block copolymer poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-poly(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate-co-oligo(ethylene glycol)methacrylate) and Mn, Zn doped ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (MZF-MNPs). The thermo-responses of 6sPCL-b-P(MEO2M...
متن کاملPreparation, characterization and application of star-shaped PCL/PEG micelles for the delivery of doxorubicin in the treatment of colon cancer
Star-shaped polymer micelles have good stability against dilution with water, showing promising application in drug delivery. In this work, biodegradable micelles made from star-shaped poly(ε-caprolactone)/poly(ethylene glycol) (PCL/PEG) copolymer were prepared and used to deliver doxorubicin (Dox) in vitro and in vivo. First, an acrylated monomethoxy poly (ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone)...
متن کاملA poly(L-lysine)-based hydrophilic star block co-polymer as a protein nanocarrier with facile encapsulation and pH-responsive release.
A hydrophilic star block co-polymer was synthesized, characterized, and evaluated as a protein nanocarrier. The star block co-polymer was composed of a hyperbranched polyethylenimine (PEI) core, a poly(L-lysine) (PLL) inner shell, and a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) outer shell. The model protein insulin can be rapidly and efficiently encapsulated by the synthesized polymer in aqueous phosphate b...
