Abstract:
Proteins are ubiquitous in life and next to water, they are the most abundant compounds found in human bodies. Proteins have very specific roles in the body and depending on their function, they are for example classified as enzymes, antibodies or transport proteins. Recently, therapeutic proteins have made an impact in the drug market. However, some proteins can be subject to quick hydrolytic degradation or denaturation depending on the environment and therefore require a protective layer. A range of strategies are available to encapsulate and deliver proteins, but techniques based on polyelectrolyte complex formation stand out owing to their ease of formulation. Depending on their isoelectric point, proteins are charged and can condense with oppositely charged polymers. Using block copolymers with a neutral block and a charged block results in the formation of polyion complex (PIC) micelles when mixed with the oppositely charged protein. The neutral block stabilises the charged protein–polymer core, leading to nanoparticles. The types of micelles are also known under the names interpolyelectrolyte complex, complex coacervate core micelles, and block ionomer complexes. In this article, we discuss the formation of PIC micelles and their stability. Strategies to enhance the stability such as supercharging the protein or crosslinking the PIC micelles are discussed.

Abstract:
mRNA is a promising therapeutic nucleic acid, although effective delivery systems are required for its broad application. Polyion complex (PIC) micelles loading mRNA via polyion complexation with block catiomers are emerging as promising carriers for mRNA delivery, but the PIC stability has been limited so far. Controlling the binding of polycations to mRNA could affect the micelle stability. Nevertheless, the impact of binding affinity between polycations and mRNA on the function of mRNA-loaded PIC micelles (mRNA/m) remains unknown. Herein, we review our recent orthogonal approaches controlling the stiffness and the valency of polycations to improve the performance of mRNA/m toward enhancing stability and delivery efficiency. Thus, block catiomers with contrasting flexibility were developed to prepare mRNA/m. The flexible catiomer stabilized mRNA/m against enzymatic attack and polyanion exchange compared to the rigid catiomer, promoting protein translation in vitro and in vivo, and prolonged mRNA bioavailability in blood after systemic injection. Based on these observations, we also developed flexible catiomers with different valencies. The guanidinated catiomer stabilized mRNA/m compared to the aminated catiomers, facilitating intracellular delivery and eventual gene expression. Our findings indicate the importance of controlling the polymer binding to mRNA for developing flexible polycation-based systems directed to in vivo applications.

Abstract:
RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of a wide range of disorders. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), i.e., non-coding double-stranded RNA molecules, have been mainly used for RNAi. Because siRNA is susceptible to enzymatic degradation and is rapidly cleared from the bloodstream, the success of RNAi is strongly related to the design of efficient delivery technologies. Among auspicious carriers for siRNA, polymeric micelles self-assembled by polyion complexation between block ionomers and siRNA have attracted much attention due to their well-defined size, efficient complexation and potential for delivery in vivo. In this regard, we have recently demonstrated that the polycation flexibility influences the complexation with single stranded RNA molecules, affecting the delivery capability of the resulting micelles. On the other hand, the effects of the catiomer flexibility on micelles loading double stranded siRNA remains unknown. Thus, herein, we studied the effects of the polycation backbone flexibility on siRNA-loaded polyion complex (PIC) micelles by using complementary block copolymers, i.e., the relatively flexible poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(glycidylbutylamine) (PEG-PGBA) and the more rigid PEG-poly(L-lysine) (PEG-PLL). By mixing these polymers with siRNA at different N/P ratios, we found that PEG-PGBA effectively promoted self-assembly of PIC micelles at lower N/P ratios and lower siRNA concentrations than PEG-PLL. Computational studies of siRNA binding with polycations and PEG-polycations further supported the favorable binding process of flexible polycations with siRNA. The micelles based on PEG-PGBA were stable in physiological conditions and promoted effective intracellular delivery of siRNA for efficient gene knockdown. Our results indicate the importance of polycation flexibility for the assembly of PIC micelles with siRNA, and its potential for developing innovative carrier systems.

Abstract:
Self-assembled supramolecular structures based on polyion complex (PIC) formation between oppositely charged polymers are attracting much attention for developing drug delivery systems able to endure harsh in vivo environments. As controlling polymer complexation provides an opportunity for engineering the assemblies, an improved understanding of the PIC formation will allow constructing assemblies with enhanced structural and functional capabilities. Here, we focused on the influence of the mixing charge ratio between block aniomers and catiomers on the physicochemical characteristics and in vivo biological performance of the resulting PIC micelles (PIC/m). Our results showed that by changing the mixing charge ratio, the structural state of the core was altered despite the sizes of PIC/m remaining almost the same. These structural variations greatly affected the stability of the PIC/m in the bloodstream after intravenous injection and determined their biodistribution.

Abstract:
Ordered mesoporous silica materials were prepared under different pH conditions by using a silicon alkoxide as a silica source and polyion complex (PIC) micelles as the structure-directing agents. PIC micelles were formed by complexation between a weak polyacid-containing double-hydrophilic block copolymer, poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PEO-b-PAA), and a weak polybase, oligochitosan-type polyamine. As both the micellization process and the rate of silica condensation are highly dependent on pH, the properties of silica mesostructures can be modulated by changing the pH of the reaction medium. Varying the materials synthesis pH from 4.5 to 7.9 led to 2D-hexagonal, wormlike or lamellar mesostructures, with a varying degree of order. The chemical composition of the as-synthesized hybrid organic/inorganic materials was also found to vary with pH. The structure variations were discussed based on the extent of electrostatic complexing bonds between acrylate and amino functions and on the silica condensation rate as a function of pH.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse porte sur l’élaboration de matériaux siliciques mésostructurés par des agents structurants originaux : les micelles complexes de polyions ou micelles PICs, qui présentent la particularité de s’assembler de façon réversible dans l’eau. Les micelles PICs sont des assemblages formés par interactions électrostatiques entre un copolymère à blocs double-hydrophiles (DHBC) neutre-ionisable et un agent de micellisation de charge opposée au DHBC. Le DHBC utilisé est un poly(oxyde d’éthylène)-b-poly(acide acrylique) POE-b-PAA synthétisé par polymérisation radicalaire contrôlée par transfert d’atome (ATRP) et les agents de micellisation sont commerciaux (oligochitosane OC, antibiotiques aminoglycosides). Tout d’abord, l’influence de divers paramètres (pH, température, concentration) sur les propriétés d’association des micelles PIC a été étudiée en solution aqueuse. Puis, l’influence de ces mêmes paramètres sur la structuration de la silice en présence de complexes de polyions POE-b-PAA/OC a été recherchée, et a permis de mieux appréhender les mécanismes de formation des matériaux hybrides. Il a ainsi été montré qu’en jouant sur les interactions entre les divers constituants, il était possible de contrôler la mésostructure des matériaux (hexagonale, lamellaire, vermiculaire) et leur morphologie (nanoparticules, microparticules). Enfin, la versatilité de l’utilisation de micelles PIC en tant qu’agents structurants de la silice a été mise en évidence avec des systèmes POE-b-PAA/aminoglycosides, qui ont permis d’obtenir directement des matériaux structurés ordonnés chargés en principes actifs. Par ailleurs, les possibilités offertes par l’utilisation des micelles PIC notamment en termes de fonctionnalité et de réversibilité de la micellisation, ont été exploitées et ont permis d’obtenir facilement des matériaux mésoporeux fonctionnalisés par les chaînes ionisables du DHBC, suite à l’extraction sélective de l’agent de micellisation. Il a été montré que de tels matériaux fonctionnels sont capables de complexer des espèces de charges opposées et notamment des principes actifs, qui peuvent par la suite être relargués de façon pH-dépendante
Mesostructured hybrid materials were prepared by using original silica-structuring agents, which are polyion complex (PIC) micelles. A great advantage of PIC micelles is that they can be reversibly assembled in aqueous solution by varying physico-chemical parameters. PIC micelles are formed by electrostatic complexation between a neutral-anionic double-hydrophilic block copolymer (DHBC) and an oppositely charged agent of micellization; here a poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(acrylic acid) PEO-b-PAA (synthesized by controlled radical polymerization by atom transfer ATRP) and commercial polyamines (oligochitosan OC or aminoglycoside antibiotics) were respectively used. First, the influence of various parameters (pH, temperature, concentration) on PIC micelle association properties was investigated in aqueous solution. Then, the effect of these parameters on the silica mesostructuring process was studied, it provides a better understanding of the formation mechanisms. It was shown that varying interactions between constituents allows to control the mesostructure (hexagonal, lamellar, wormlike) and the material morphology (nanoparticle, microparticle). Finally, the versatility of the approach has been demonstrated with PEO-b-PAA/aminoglycoside systems. Drug-loaded ordered mesostructured materials were prepared following a one-pot route. Moreover, taking advantage of the high degree of functionality of DHBC polymers and of the reversibility of the micellization, polyacid-functionalized mesoporous materials were directly prepared by selectively extracting the micellization agent. PAA-functionalized silica materials were then used to complex diverse active entities such as drugs, whose delivery could be pH-controlled

Abstract:
Les copolymères amphiphiles dégradables à base de poly (éthylène glycol) PEG et de polyesters aliphatiques (poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), poly(lactide) (PLA), poly(glycolide) (PGA)) sont largement utilisés dans les applications médicales en raison de leur innocuité et leur acceptation par les autorités de santé. Cependant leur capacité à répondre aux enjeux auxquels sont confrontés les nanomédicaments (ciblage, réponse programmée etc…) est limitée du fait de l’absence de groupes fonctionnels. Pour pallier cette limitation, ce travail de thèse s’intéresse aux voies de modification post-polymérisation de copolymères amphiphiles PEG-b-PCL donnant un accès simple à des familles de copolymères à blocs double hydrophiles (DHBC) dégradables. Nous nous intéressons en particulier à la synthèse de DHBC en trois étapes incluant une étape de photoaddition thiol-yne qui permet à partir d’un même précurseur macromoléculaire la synthèse de familles de DHBC à bloc PEG et blocs PCL fonctionnalisés en chaîne latérale à caractère neutre, cationique ou anionique. Le potentiel de ces DHBC pour la formulation d’actifs au sein de nanosystèmes de libérations pH-répondants est tout d’abord évalué à l’aide d’un anti-cancéreux à large spectre d’activité antitumorale. Dans un second temps, la formulation de micelles de complexes polyioniques tripartites de siRNA pour application en thérapie génique à partir de DHBC anioniques est étudiée. Enfin, la préparation de nanocomplexes DHBC/gadolinium pour imagerie médicale par résonance magnétique nucléaire (IRM) est abordée
Biodegradable amphiphilic copolymers based on poly(ethylene glycol) PEG and aliphatic polyesters (poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), poly(lactide) (PLA), poly(glycolide) (PGA)) are widely used in medical applications due to their safety and their acceptance by health authorities. However, their ability to address the challenges faced by the nanomedicines (targeting, programmed response etc…) is limited due to the absence of functional groups. To overcome this limitation, this work focuses on the post-polymerization modification strategies of amphiphilic PEG-b-PCL giving easy access to families of degradable double hydrophilic block copolymers (DHBC). We are particularly interested in the three-step synthesis of DHBC including a thiol-yne photoaddition step which allows, starting from the same macromolecular precursor, the synthesis of DHBC families composed of PEG blocks and side chain functionalized PCL blocks with a neutral, cationic or anionic character. The potential of these DHBC for the formulation of active pharmaceutical ingredients within pH-responsive drug delivery nanosystems is first evaluated using an anti-cancer agent with a broad spectrum of antitumor activity. In another part, we study the formulation of tripartite polyionic complex micelles with an anionic DHBC and siRNA for applications in gene therapy. Finally, the preparation of DHBC/gadolinium nanocomplexes for medical imaging by nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI) is discussed

Le contrôle des tailles et de la distribution en tailles des SPIONs et donc de leurs propriétés magnétiques a été obtenu en utilisant un copolymère arborescent G1 (substrat de polystyrène branché en peigne noté G0, greffé avec des groupements pendants poly(2-vinyle pyridine) ) comme milieu « gabarit », tandis que la stabilité colloïdale et la biocompatibilité des SPIONs ont été apportées par un procédé de poly-complexation ionique grâce à un copolymère double-hydrophile acide polyacrylique-bloc-poly(acrylate de 2-hydroxyéthyle) PAA-b-PHEA

Control over the size and size distribution of the iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs), and thus over their magnetic properties, was achieved using a G1 arborescent copolymer (comb-branched (G0) polystyrene substrate grafted with poly(2-vinylpyridine) side chains, or G0PS-g-P2VP) as a template. Good colloidal stability and biocompatibility of the SPIONs were achieved via the formation of polyion complex (PIC) micelles with a poly(acrylic acid)-block-poly(2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PAA-b-PHEA) double-hydrophilic block copolymer

Abstract:
Antibiotic resistance is a serious worldwide threat. Alternative solutions to the limited pipeline of new antibiotics are urgently needed. Nanotechnology and drug delivery can be used to develop new therapies from old antimicrobials by controlling their distribution in the body. The goal of this thesis was to investigate the formation and activity of polyion complex (PIC) nanoparticles as vehicles for the delivery of two cationic antibiotics: poly(ethylene imine), used as model to develop these nanomaterials, and the FDA-approved antimicrobial peptide polymyxin B. These antibiotics were combined with two types of polyanions to form PIC particles with distinct antimicrobial properties: 1) Anionic peptides, degradable by bacterial enzymes led to bacteria-targeted nanoparticles; 2) Acidic polymers assembled particles for passive release, which tuned the activity of the antibiotic in the absence of a specific trigger. All the PIC particles prepared were characterised, and their physiological stability and antimicrobial properties evaluated. To improve the stability and activity of these nanoparticles, several characteristics of their anionic components were optimised: 1) their multivalency, as a function of the peptide’s anionic residues and polymer’s DP; 2) the acidity of the polymers; and 3) the number of cross-linking residues in the peptides.

Les micelles complexes de polyions, ou « micelles PIC », formées par interaction électrostatique entre un copolymère à blocs double hydrophile neutre-ionique (DHBC) et un homopolyélectrolyte de charge opposée au DHBC possèdent des propriétés particulièrement intéressantes : solubilité des polyélectrolytes dans l'eau, stabilité des micelles, contrôle de l'association/dissociation micellaire par divers stimuli (pH, force ionique, irradiation lumineuse…). Dans cette thèse, les propriétés physico-chimiques des micelles PIC de type DHBC neutre-cationique/homopolymère anionique et DHBC neutre-anionique/homopolyélectrolyte cationique ont été étudiées en solution aqueuse en vue de leur utilisation comme agent structurant des matériaux siliciques organisés à l'échelle nanométrique. La gamme de pH de formation des micelles PIC, la concentration micellaire critique et le nombre d'agrégation des micelles ont été déterminés pour chacun des systèmes étudiés. Nous avons montré que la formation des micelles suit un mécanisme coopératif qui dépend de la taille de l'homopolymère. Par ailleurs, nous avons proposé une voie originale de formation des micelles PIC photoinduite, basée sur une modification du pH suite à l'irradiation d'une molécule photochrome. Les études concernant l'utilisation des micelles PIC comme agent structurant des matériaux nous ont permis de montrer que la morphologie (nanoparticulaire, massif) et la structure des matériaux (lamellaire, vermiculaire) peuvent être contrôlés par divers paramètres, tels que la concentration en masse du système DHBC/homopolyélectrolyte/précurseur de silice, la teneur en précurseur de silice et le rapport entre les fonctions cationique et anionique des polyélectrolytes. Le lavage des matériaux sous des conditions douces (à l'eau) permet de récupérer l'agent structurant
Polyion complex micelles, or "PIC micelles", formed by electrostatic interaction between a neutral-ionic double hydrophilic block copolymer (DHBC) and an oppositely charged homopolyelectrolyte possess interesting properties: solubility of the polyelectrolytes in water, stability of micelles, control of the micellar association / dissociation by various stimuli (pH, ionic strength, light irradiation ...). In this thesis, the physico-chemical properties of PIC micelles of neutral-cationic DHBC/ anionic homopolymer and neutral-anionic DHBC/cationic homopolymer were studied in aqueous solution for use as structuring agents of silica-based organized nanomaterials. The pH range of PIC micelle formation, the critical micelle concentration and aggregation number of micelles were determined for each studied system. We have shown that the formation of micelles follows a cooperative mechanism which depends on the size of the homopolymer. Furthermore, we proposed an original way of photoinduced PIC micelle formation, based on a pH change after irradiation of a photochromic molecule. The studies on the PIC micelles as structuring agents of materials have shown that the morphology (nanoparticular, bulk) and the material structure (lamellar, vermicular) can be controlled by various parameters, such as the mass concentration of the DHBC / homopolyelectrolyte / silica precursor system, the content of the silica precursor and the ratio between the functions of the cationic and anionic polyelectrolytes.

Ce travail de thèse porte sur la compréhension des phénomènes physico-chimiques régissant les propriétés poreuses et structurales de matériaux mésoporeux structurés par des micelles complexes de polyions (PIC). Nous défendons que la sensibilité de la structure aux conditions physico-chimiques est due à l’eau contenue dans les complexes électrostatiques en équilibre osmotique avec l’ensemble de la solution.Le travail a consisté à synthétiser par ATRP des copolymères double-hydrophiles (DHBC) POE-b-PAA séquencés neutre-acide faible. En présence d’un polyélectrolyte faible basique, tel que la néomycine ou des oligochitosans, ils forment des micelles PIC, analogues colloïdaux des coacervats. Nous avons caractérisé les micelles PIC de structure cœur-couronne sur une large gamme de concentration et observé leur compression progressive concomitante à leur ordonnancement et finalement leur transition vers des phases lamellaires. La composition du cœur a été étudiée grâce à un système modèle coacervat, macroscopiquement séparé, obtenu par mélange de PAA et de néomycine. Le coacervat contient jusqu’à 60% d’eau et présente la structure d’un réseau de polymères neutres enchevêtrés. La quantité d’eau contenue dans le coacervat dépend des conditions physico-chimiques telles que le pH et la concentration mais également de l’ajout d’osmolytes tels que de l’alcool, du PEG ou du sel. Une série de matériaux mésoporeux a été synthétisée et nous avons montré qu’il était possible de modifier les propriétés structurales et poreuses des matériaux en utilisant un système PIC (couple DHBC + polyélectrolyte) unique, en jouant sur la physico-chimie des solutions de synthèse. Nous avons donc mis en relation les fractions volumiques de cœur complexe du système mésogène et la structure des matériaux obtenus et avons montré que la contribution de l’eau était très significative. L’augmentation de la quantité d’eau dans les coacervats induit une augmentation de la taille des pores ou la transition vers des mésostructures lamellaires de courbures plus faibles. Ainsi la synthèse de matériaux mésoporeux structurés par des complexes électrostatiques s’avère d’autant plus respectueuse de l’environnement qu’elle utilise comme agent structurant principal l’eau
The objective of this PhD thesis is to understand the physico-chemical phenomena that govern the structural and porous properties of ordered mesoporous materials templated by polyion electrostatic complex micelles. It is defended that the sensitivity of the structure to the physico-chemical parameters of the system is due to the water content in the electrostatic complex which is in osmotic equilibrium with the synthesis medium. First, double-hydrophilic block copolymers (DHBC) were synthesized by ATRP controlled polymerization. They form polyion complex (PIC) micelles in the presence of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes such as the neomycin and oligochitosan weak bases. PIC micelles, colloidal analogues to coacervates, were characterized on a large range of concentration and their concomitant progressive compression was observed together with their ordering and finally their transition to lamellar phases. The core structure and composition were studied through the analysis of a model coacervate system, which macroscopically separates and results from complexation between neomycin and sodium polyacrylate. The coacervate contains up to 60 wt.% of water and exhibits the structure of a network of interpenetrated polymers. The water content in the coacervate depends on physicochemical conditions such as pH and concentration of the system, but also on the addition of osmolytes such as alcohol, PEG polymers or simple salts. A series of mesoporous materials were prepared and their structural and porous properties were modulated by simply varying the physicochemical conditions of the synthesis medium, with a unique DHBC/polyelectrolyte pair. Correlations between the volume fraction of the complex core of the mesogenic system and the obtained material structure could be established and it was shown that the contribution of water was highly significant. Increasing the water content in the coacervates induces an increase of the pore size in 2D hexagonal structures or favours the transition towards lamellar phases of lower curvature. As a conclusion, the synthesis of mesoporous materials mediated by the use of electrostatic complex micelles proved to be all the more environment-friendly as it uses water as the main porogen

A novel poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly(aspartic acid) (PEOz-b-PAsp) was synthesized and investigated as a potential carrier for the amphotericin B (AmB) delivery in forming polyion complex (PIC) micelles. Nano-scale AmB/PEOz-b-PAsp PIC micelles were prepared by thin film method. The nano-scale PIC micelles with core-shell structure were formed with a hydrophilic outer shell and dissociation of the carboxylic group from PAsp to become a hydrophobic inner core for drug delivery application. The resulting nano-scale PIC micelles with AmB and PEOz-b-PAsp showed an average diameter about 108 nm. The drug content of the PIC micelles can be as high as 47 % in phosphate buffer solution with pH 7.4. The release of AmB from nano-scale PIC micelles was 60 % at 40 h in phosphate buffer solution with pH 7.4. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of PIC micelles was 20μg/mL, and antifungal activity of PIC micelles was better than Fungizone® during 72 hrs. In conclusion, AmB/PEOz-b-PAsp PIC micelles were developed and optimized for drug delivery to allow efficient antifungal activity with low cytotoxicity. Engineering of biodegradable polymers to form non-covalent drug-polymer interactions of PIC micelles constitutes a useful approach for the future design of drug carriers.

Le but de cette étude était le développement des micelles polyioniques à base de dextrane pour la relargage de médicaments hydrophiles cationiques utilisant une nouvelle famille de copolymères bloc carboxymethyldextran-poly(éthylène glycol) (CMD-PEG). Quatre copolymères CMD-PEG ont été préparés dont deux copolymères identiques en termes de longueurs des blocs de CMD et de PEG mais différent en termes de densité de charges du bloc CMD; et deux autres copolymères dans lesquels les blocs chargés sont les mêmes mais dont les blocs de PEG sont différents. Les propriétés d’encapsulation des micelles CMD-PEG ont été évaluées avec différentes molécules cationiques: le diminazène (DIM), un médicament cationique modèle, le chlorhydrate de minocycline (MH), un analogue semi-synthétique de la tétracycline avec des propriétés neuro-protectives prometteuses et différents antibiotiques aminoglycosidiques. La cytotoxicité des copolymères CMD-PEG a été évaluée sur différentes lignées cellulaires en utilisant le test MTT et le test du Bleu Alamar. La formation de micelles des copolymères de CMD-PEG a été caractérisée par différentes techniques telles que la spectroscopie RMN 1H, la diffusion de la lumière dynamique (DLS) et la titration calorimétrique isotherme (ITC). Le taux de relargage des médicaments et l’activité pharmacologique des micelles contenant des médicaments ont aussi été évalués. Les copolymères CMD-PEG n'ont induit aucune cytotoxicité dans les hépatocytes humains et dans les cellules microgliales murines (N9) après 24 h incubation pour des concentrations allant jusqu’à 15 mg/mL. Les interactions électrostatiques entre les copolymères de CMD-PEG et les différentes drogues cationiques ont amorcé la formation de micelles polyioniques avec un coeur composé du complexe CMD-médicaments cationiques et une couronne composée de PEG. Les propriétés des micelles DIM/CMDPEG ont été fortement dépendantes du degré de carboxyméthylation du bloc CMD. Les micelles de CMD-PEG de degré de carboxyméthylation du bloc CMD ≥ 60 %, ont incorporé jusqu'à 64 % en poids de DIM et ont résisté à la désintégration induite par les sels et ceci jusqu'à 400 mM NaCl. Par contre, les micelles de CMD-PEG de degré de carboxyméthylation ~ 30% avaient une plus faible teneur en médicament (~ 40 % en poids de DIM) et se désagrégeaient à des concentrations en sel inférieures (∼ 100 mM NaCl). Le copolymère de CMD-PEG qui a montré les propriétés micellaires les plus satisfaisantes a été sélectionné comme système de livraison potentiel de chlorhydrate de minocycline (MH) et d’antibiotiques aminoglycosidiques. Les micelles CMD-PEG encapsulantes de MH ou d’aminoglycosides ont une petite taille (< 200 nm de diamètre), une forte capacité de chargement (≥ 50% en poids de médicaments) et une plus longue période de relargage de médicament. Ces micelles furent stables en solution aqueuse pendant un mois; après lyophilisation et en présence d'albumine sérique bovine. De plus, les micelles ont protégé MH contre sa dégradation en solutions aqueuses. Les micelles encapsulant les drogues ont maintenu les activités pharmacologiques de ces dernières. En outre, les micelles MH réduisent l’inflammation induite par les lipopolysaccharides dans les cellules microgliales murines (N9). Les micelles aminoglycosides ont été quant à elles capable de tuer une culture bactérienne test. Toutefois les micelles aminoglycosides/CMDPEG furent instables dans les conditions physiologiques. Les propriétés des micelles ont été considérablement améliorées par des modifications hydrophobiques de CMD-PEG. Ainsi, les micelles aminoglycosides/dodecyl-CMD-PEG ont montré une taille plus petite et une meilleure stabilité aux conditions physiologiques. Les résultats obtenus dans le cadre de cette étude montrent que CMD-PEG copolymères sont des systèmes prometteurs de relargage de médicaments cationiques.
Polyion complex (PIC) micelles have emerged as promising delivery systems of ionic hydrophilic drugs. It was the aim of this study to develop dextran-based PIC micelles for the delivery of hydrophilic cationic drugs using a new family of carboxymethyldextranblock- poly(ethylene glycol) (CMD-PEG) copolymers. Four CMD-PEG copolymers were prepared: (i) two copolymers identical in terms of the length of CMD and PEG blocks, but different in terms of the charge density of the CMD block; and (ii) two copolymers in which the charged block is the same, but the PEG block is of different molecular weight. The micellization of CMD-PEG copolymers and drug delivery aspects of the resulting micelles were evaluated using different cationic drugs: diminazene (DIM), a model cationic drug, minocycline hydrochloride (MH), a semisynthetic tetracycline antibiotic with promising neuroprotective properties and different aminoglycoside antibiotics. The cytotoxicity of CMD-PEG copolymers was evaluated in different cell lines using MTT and Alamar blue assays. CMD-PEG micelles encapsulating different drugs were characterized using different techniques, such as 1H NMR spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The pattern of drug release and pharmacological activity of micelles-encapsulated drugs were also evaluated. The CMD-PEG copolymers did not induce cytotoxicity in human hepatocytes and murine microglia (N9) in concentrations as high as 15 mg/mL after incubation for 24 h. Electrostatic interactions between CMD-PEG copolymers and different cationic drugs triggered the formation of PIC micelles with a CMD/drug core and a PEG corona. The properties of DIM/CMD-PEG micelles were strongly dependent on the degree of carboxymethylation of the CMD block. Micelles of CMD-PEG copolymers having degree of carboxymethylation ≥ 60%, incorporated up to 64 wt% DIM, resisted salt-induced disintegration in solutions up to 400 mM NaCl and sustained DIM release under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl). In contrast, micelles of CMD-PEG of degree of carboxymethylation ~ 30% had lower drug content (~ 40 wt% DIM) and disintegrated at lower salt concentration (∼ 100 mM NaCl). The CMD-PEG copolymer that showed the most satisfactory micellar properties, in terms of high drug loading capacity, sustained drug release and micelles stability was selected as a potential delivery system of minocycline hydrochloride (MH) and different aminoglycosides. CMD-PEG micelles encapsulating either MH or aminoglycosides had small size (< 200 nm in diameter), high drug loading capacity (≥ 50 wt% drug) and sustained drug release. These micelles were stable in aqueous solution for up to one month, after freeze drying and in the presence of bovine serum albumin. Furthermore, the micelles protected MH against degradation in aqueous solutions. Micelles-encapsulated drugs maintained their pharmacological activity where MH micelles reduced lipopolysaccharides-induced inflammation in murine microglia (N9) cells. And aminoglycosides micelles were able to kill a test micro-organism (E. coli X-1 blue strain) in culture. Aminoglycosides/CMD-PEG micelles were unstable under physiological conditions. Micelle properties were greatly enhanced by hydrophobic modification of CMD-PEG. Thus, aminoglycosides/dodecyl-CMD-PEG micelles showed smaller size and better stability under physiological conditions. The results obtained in this study show that CMD-PEG copolymers are promising delivery systems for cationic hydrophilic drugs.

Abstract:
Les oligonucléotides (ONs) antisens présentent un fort potentiel en tant qu’agents thérapeutiques. Toutefois, leurs propriétés physicochimiques limitent leur utilisation en thérapie génique. Pour pallier aux divers obstacles, des systèmes de vectorisation, tels que les micelles polyioniques (PICMs), ont été développés. Grâce à leur structure unique, les micelles protégent l’ON contre une dégradation prématurée et le couplage d’un ligand à leur surface augmente leur spécificité et leur internalisation. Dans d’autres systèmes, un polymère adjuvant aux propriétés pH-sensibles peut être ajouté pour faciliter la sortie de l’endosome et augmenter l’efficacité de l’ON. L’objectif général de ce mémoire était de mettre au point des PICMs ternaires ciblées pour l’administration d’ONs. Ces micelles assureraient à la fois l’internalisation cellulaire de leur cargaison en interagissant avec des récepteurs cellulaires et sa fuite de l’endosome grâce à un mécanisme de déstabilisation de la membrane endosomale. Pour cela, des PICMs composées d’un copolymère cationique de type poly(éthylène glycol)-bloc-poly(méthacrylate d’(alkylamino)éthyle) et d’un copolymère d’acide méthacrylique ont été préparées. Les propriétés physicochimiques de ces vecteurs ont démontré qu’ils permettaient une condensation efficace de l’acide nucléique et ce, indépendamment de la nature du polymère cationique et de l’acide nucléique. Finalement, une approche de couplage par pont disulfure a été développée afin de greffer au copolymère un fragment d’anticorps dirigé contre les récepteurs de la transferrine. En conclusion, ces travaux démontrent la versatilité et le potentiel des PICMs ternaires en tant que vecteurs d’acide nucléique, et proposent une méthodologie de couplage d’un ligand afin de formuler des PICMs ciblées.
Antisens oligonucleotides (ONs) present great potential as therapeutic agents. However, their physicochemical properties hinder their use in gene therapy. Targeting systems, such as polyion complex micelles (PICMs), have been proposed to circumvent the main hurdles related to ON delivery. Their unique core/shell structure can protect the ON against premature degradation and the coupling of a ligand on their surface can increase their specificity and internalization. In other systems, a polymer with pH-sensitive properties can be added to facilitate the release of the ON from the endosome and increase its efficiency. The present work was aimed at optimizing ternary PICMs targeted for the delivery of antisens ON. Such systems would provide both cellular internalization of cargo by interaction with receptors on the surface of cell membranes and escape from the endosome through a mechanism of destabilization of the endosomal membrane. PICMs composed of cationic copolymers of poly(ethylene glycol)-bloc-poly((alkylamino)ethyl methacrylate) with a methacrylic acid copolymer adjuvant were prepared. Their physicochemical properties suggest that efficient complexation of nucleic acids was obtained, regardless of the nature of the cationic polymer and the nature of the nucleic acid. Finally, a synthetic approach was developed for the conjugation of an antibody fragment directed against the transferrin receptor via a labile disulfide bond at the end of the cationic copolymer. In conclusion, the work presented herein displays the versatility and potential of ternary PICMs as vehicles for the delivery of ONs and also provides a method for the conjugation of a ligand to generate targeted ternary PICMs.
