Texto completoFunctionalized poly(2-oxazoline)s are a promising class of materials concerning their self-assembly behavior as well as for future applications. Hierarchical structure formation based on hydrogen bonding interactions has not been investigated yet. Applying a bioinspired approach, functional groups promoting hierarchical structure formation are introduced to poly(2-oxazoline)s. This work is focused on the modular synthesis of new functionalized poly(2-oxazoline) homo and copolymers. Starting from the synthesis of the new monomer 2-(3-butenyl)-2-oxazolin, well-defined precursor materials were prepared via cationic isomerization polymerization. Next, the polymers were quantitatively modified with the aimed functional groups using a “thio-click” (thiol-ene) reaction. The aggregation behaviour of hydroxylated poly(2-oxazolines) in water was investigated. Homo- as well as block copolymers can form supramolecular hollow nanofibers via intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Using a variety of different analytical methods, the structure of the nanotubes was determined and a formation model was proposed. Furthermore, the functionalized poly(2-oxazoline)s were investigated as synthetic mimics of natural anti-freeze additives. It was found, that these polymers show the tendency to nucleate water, thus influencing the morphology of ice. Finally, a carboxylated derivative was applied as an additive for the mineralization of calcium carbonate.

Texto completoDye-functionalized polymers have been extensively studied to understand polymer chain dynamics, intra or inter-molecular association and conformational changes as well as in practical applications such as signal amplification in diagnostic tests and light-harvesting antennas. In this work, the Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) of dye-functionalized poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) was studied to evaluate the effect of dye positioning and polymer chain length on the FRET efficiency. Therefore, both α (initiating terminus)- or ω (terminal chain end)-fluorophore single labeled and dual α,ω-fluorescent dye labeled PEtOx were prepared via cationic ring opening polymerization (CROP) using 1-(bromomethyl)pyrene as the initiator and/or 1-pyrenebutyric acid or coumarin 343 as the terminating agent, yielding well-defined PEtOx with high labeling efficiency (over 91%). Fluorescence studies revealed that intramolecular FRET is most efficient for heterotelechelic PEtOx containing both pyrene and coumarin 343 fluorophores as chain ends, as expected. A strong dependence of the energy transfer on the chain length was found for these dual labeled polymers. The polymers were tested in both dilute organic (chloroform) and aqueous media revealing a higher FRET efficiency in water due to the enhanced emissive properties of pyrene. The application of dual labeled polymers as fluorescent probes for temperature sensing was demonstrated based on the lower critical solution temperature behavior of the PEtOx. Furthermore, these polymers could be successfully processed into fibers and thin films. Importantly, the fluorescence properties were retained in the solid state without decreasing the FRET efficiency, thus opening future possibilities for application of these materials in solar cells and/or sensors.

Texto completoThis PhD work is based on the design of poly(2-oxazoline) (POx)hydrogels and nanogels, by chemical or physical cross-linking, aimed to be used for biomedical applications. Nanogels were first prepared in dilute media and in inverse emulsion based on a statistical copolymer made of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline and ethyleneimine units. These stimuli-responsive nanogels were swelling in acidic media and were cleaved in reductive environment. They proved to be non-cytotoxic and act as protein repellent. Second, a reactive platform based on a statistical POx polymerbearing aldehyde functionalities was engineered, enabling the synthesis of graft and cross-linked POx. Last, a block copolymer made of 2-methyl- and 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline units, proved to self-assemble into micelles when heated above its LCST,for a short period of time (< 1h30). When annealed for a longer time (> 1h30),crystallization-driven self-assembly led to the formation of different morphologies(fiber rods and cross-linked micelles)

Texto completoThis manuscript describes the synthesis of amphiphilic diblock copolymers by reverse iodine transfer polymerization (RITP). Firstly, homopolymers derived from activated (styrene, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate), non-activated (vinyl acetate) and functional monomers (chloromethylstyrene, tert-butyl acrylate) synthesized by RITP, were studied. Aspects including molecular weight control as well as iodine chain-end functionality were investigated. In order to highlight the compatibility of RITP with other living/controlled (non-radical) polymerization techniques, a poly(styrene)-b-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PS-b-P(MOx)) non-ionic copolymer was conceived through an ‘all-iodine', ‘one-pot' process by combining successively RITP of styrene with cationic ring-opening polymerization (CROP) of 2-methyl-2-oxazoline. Besides, poly(styrene)-b-poly(chloromethylstyrene) quaternized with triethylamine (PS-b-PCMS+) cationic copolymers and poly(styrene)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PS-b-PAA-) anionic copolymers were elaborated by RITP of styrene, followed by ITP of the hydrophilic moiety. All these amphiphilic copolymers were obtained from iodine-bearing chain-end poly(styrene) (PS-I) of low molecular weights, in the range of values of 1000 to 3000 g.mol-1, playing the role of macro-initiators (CROP) or macro-transfer agents (ITP). Studies of the self-assembly of these amphiphilic copolymers in aqueous phases revealed the formation of micelles for concentrations superior to the critical aggregation concentration (CAC). The latter value was determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and fluorescence spectroscopy. Moreover, highly-promising results were obtained in the use of PS-b-PCMS+ cationic copolymers as structuring agents meant for the elaboration of nanostructured, mesoporous silica-based materials through the sol-gel process in basic medium. Both the synthesis of the amphiphilic copolymers and their physico-chemical characterizations have evidenced that RITP fosters the synthesis of different categories of amphiphilic copolymers, while being a simple, cheap and robust technique

Texto completoThis manuscript deals with the synthesis of amphiphilic diblock copolymers obtained by the coupling of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic homopolymers. The copolymers were achieved in two steps. On the one hand, homopolymers poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) P(MOx)s and poly(tert-butyl acrylate)s (P(At-Bu) were synthesized by cationic ring opening polymerization (CROP) and by Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Transfer (RAFT) polymerization and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), respectively. Finally, amphiphilic diblock copolymers were achieved by Huisgen's cycloaddition. Physical chemistry studies in water proved the formation of aggregates. The latter had a spherical morphology, sizes below 100 nm and critical aggregation concentration around 10-6 mol.L-1.Knowledge acquired on the synthesis and the study of amphiphilic block copolymers led to the development of poly(-caprolactone)-g-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PCL-g-P(MOx)) amphiphilic graft copolymers, made of a hydrophobic PCL grafted with hydrophilic P(MOx) moieties. The study of aqueous solution of such copolymers showed the formation of aggregates with characteristics close from those obtained for the diblock copolymers. Another interesting point is that P(MOx) permitted the solubilization of PCL in water.The reported work illustrated the importance of macromolecular chemistry for the obtaining of amphiphilic copolymers with controlled molecular weight and narrow molar mass distributions which self-assemble in water. Such kind of materials could be used in the biomedical field

Texto completoThis subject falls within the fields of drug delivery and nanomedecine, a topic of growing interest over the last years. Nanosystems dedicated to health must be stable, non-toxic and stealthy in the immune system in order to move freely in the blood. For this purpose, the design of elaborate polymers that can form stealthy nanoparticles is required. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a hydrophobic and biodegradable polyester usually used to form nanoparticles able to encapsulate apolar compounds. Poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMeOx) is a hydrophilic, biocompatible and non toxic polymer. PMeOx can be synthesized via cationic ring opening polymerization (CROP), which allows the design of polymers with a good control of the molecular weights and a low dispersity. Thus, in this context, we have developed several strategies to design different architectures of amphiphilic PMeOx-co-PLA copolymers such as di-, triblock or graft copolymers. Such strategies relied on the combined use of CROP and « click »chemistry ». Nanoparticles were obtained by nanoprecipitation, and characterized by a wide range of experimental techniques including dynamic light scattering, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and small angle neutron scattering. These complementary approaches evidenced that nanoparticles could be obtained with a large variety of internal structure, such as polymersomes, core-shell or multilayer nanoparticles. The evaluation of the stealthiness was performed by considering the adsorption behavior of a model protein, bovin serum albumine (BSA), on the surface of the nanoparticles. The encapsulation of α-tocopherol and quantum dots demonstrated the numerous applicative possibilities offered by these new NPs

Texto completo-D-glucose derivative and their mixture were used in PBOX modifications. The effect of modification of PBOX with different mercaptans on thermal characteristics was also analyzed. For the PIPOX, formations of protonated monomer and oligomers from dimer to heptamer were observed. However, when the isopropyl group changes with 3-butenyl group, protonated oligomers up to trimer were observed because the crosslinking formed during the polymerization of unsaturated butenyl inhibited the production of oligomers. In addition to this, thermal degradation at lower temperatures was observed. The change in thermal stability and thermal degradation products were observed as a result of modification of PBOX with different mercaptans. Unlike PBOX-Sug thermal degradation started at very low temperatures for PBOX-Thiop and PBOX-Perf. This degradation observed at lower temperatures disappeared for PBOX-SP and PBOX-TP. For PBOX-Perf, PBOX-Sug and PBOX- Thiop, decomposition of side chains at low temperatures and decomposition of the main chain at high temperatures were observed. Although the same thermal degradation behavior for PBOX-TP and PBOX-Thiop was expected, since PBOX-TP was obtained as a result of modification of PBOX with high amounts of mercaptan used in PBOX-Thiop and small amounts of mercaptan used in the PBOX-Perf, the results show that neither PBOX-Thiop nor PBOX-Perf thermal degradation behavior are dominant. This is also valid for PBOX-SP. PBOX-SP has higher thermal stability when compared to PBOX-Sug.

Texto completoSome rare diseases of genetic origin can be treated by a therapy called "gene therapy" which consists in introducing a polynucleotide (DNA or RNA) into the cells to modulate their activity for therapeutic purposes. The use of a vector able to protect the polynucleotide and to transport it to the nucleus of the target cells is necessary. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is currently the cationic polymer gold standard in this field. However, due to its high toxicity, many studies aiming to modify PEI are still underway to improve its properties. Among other things, it has been shown that compact architectures give better properties to polymers. In this context, star PEI were synthesized for the first time. To this end, star poly(2-oxazoline)s precursors were prepared and their architecture was confirmed by steric exclusion chromatography analyses and kinetic studies. PEI of variable molar mass (8, 16 and 25 K) and architecture (linear, 3 and 4 arms star) were then obtained by adapting the hydrolysis protocol used for linear polymers. The transfection of CFBE and HepG2 cells with polyplexes based on pDNA and these polymers was evaluated. The influence of molar mass and architecture was studied. Finally, the modification of these PEI with histidine moieties known to increase lPEI transfection efficiency was successfully achieved, however, the expected synergy between the chemical and architectural modifications was not observed for the in vitro transfection of HepG2 cells

Texto completoSince 20th century, breakthrough in gene therapy paves the way for new therapeutic strategies against genetic disorders, cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. Cells with genetic mutation may have their cellular machinery modulated via the introduction of polynucleotides in their nucleus. Nevertheless, DNA needs to be protected by a vector to cross biological barriers and to reach targeted cell nucleus. Various types of vectors have been developed like PEI-based vectors. However, those efficient polymeric vectors exhibit a toxicity which can be lowered by PEG functionalization. Nevertheless, the well-known PEGylation approach shows limits requiring news hydrophilic polymers. In this context, POxylation was studied as PEG alternatives in the design of new pDNA containing nanovectors. A new synthetic strategy was developed with a selective hydrolysis of block poly(2-R1-2-oxazoline-b-2-R2-2-oxazoline) copolymers. The functionalization of the synthetized PEI-b-POx copolymers with histidine moieties was achieved, along with galactose grafting to induce cellular targeting or histidine grafting to improve endosomal escape. These polymers were used to form polyplexes with DNA via extrusion method and further biological testing via in vitro and in vivo transfection essays were performed. An efficient transfection was obtained with a reduction of the cytotoxicity for PEI-b-POx copolymers compared to PEI

Texto completoMotiviert durch das große Potential, das die Kombination aus additiver Fertigung und künstlicher Geweberegeneration bietet, wurde eine neuartige polymerbasierte Biotintenplattform auf Basis von Poly(2 oxazolin)en entwickelt. Diese soll zukünftig dazu beitragen das noch junge, aber aufstrebende Forschungsfeld der Biofabrikation weiterzuentwickeln. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden die Synthese sowie die Eigenschaften von mehreren Diblock Copolymeren, bestehend aus POx und POzi, untersucht, wobei der Hauptfokus auf deren Eignung als Biotinte lag. Grundsätzlich konnte gezeigt werden, dass Copolymere, bestehend aus 2 Oxazolinen und 2 Oxazinen, die unterschiedliche Alkylseitenketten besitzen, synthetisiert werden können. Dabei lagen die ermittelten Polymerisationsgrade nahe am zuvor errechneten Wert. Die Polymere wiesen mittlere bis niedrigere Dispersitäten auf. Für jedes der im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit synthetisierten Diblock Copolymere konnte eine mehr oder weniger starke Abhängigkeit der dynamischen Viskosität von der Temperatur gezeigt werden. Allerdings ist es nicht möglich, aus den thermischen Eigenschaften des Bulkmaterials Rückschlüsse auf das temperaturabhängige Verhalten in Lösung zu ziehen. Diblock Copolymere mit einem hydrophilen PMeOx Block und einem thermoresponsiven PnPrOzi Block bildeten oberhalb einer Kettenlänge von 50 Einheiten und einer Polymerkonzentration von 20 Gew% ein physikalisches Gel. Solch ein Verhalten wurde bisher noch nicht für Copolymere, die ausschließlich auf POx oder seinen höheren Homologen basieren, beschrieben. Physikalische Hydrogele, basierend auf POx b POzi Copolymeren, weisen eine umgekehrte thermische Gelierung wie auch wässrige Lösungen von PNiPAAm und Pluronic F127 auf. Allerdings konnte durch die komplementäre Verwendung von SANS, DLS und SLS gezeigt werden, dass sich der zugrundeliegende Gelbildungsmechanismus für POx b POzi basierte Hydrogele deutlich von den beiden zuvor genannten unterscheidet. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass sich zunächst bei einer sehr geringen Polymerkonzentration von 6 mg/L Vesikel mit geringer Polydispersität ausbilden. Eine Erhöhung der Konzentration resultiert in der Ausbildung eines bikontinuierlichen Netzwerks mit schwammartiger Struktur. Dieses bildet sich vermutlich durch die Fusion mehrerer Vesikel. Des Weiteren wird für höhere Polymerisationsgrade ein Phasenübergang zu einer gyroidalen Struktur postuliert der sich sehr gut mit den gewonnenen rheologischen Daten deckt. Stabile Hydrogele mit außergewöhnlich hoher mechanischer Stärke (G‘ ≈ 4kPa) bildeten sich oberhalb der Tgel, die über eine Temperaturspanne von 20 °C durch Änderung des Polymerisationsgrades eingestellt werden konnte. Veränderung der Kettenenden zeigten nur einen geringen Einfluss auf die TGel, wobei der Einfluss des verwendeten Lösemittels nicht unterschätzt werden sollte. Dies konnte durch den direkten Vergleich von MilliQ Wasser und Zellkulturmedium gezeigt werden. Rheologische Untersuchungen, die sowohl im rotierenden als auch im oszillierenden Modus durchgeführt wurden, zeigten eine gute Eignung der POx b POzi basierten Hydrogele für Extrusion basierte Druckverfahren. Insbesondere aufgrund des stark ausgeprägten scherverdünnenden Verhaltens und der ausgezeichneten Strukturerholung nach hoher Scherbelastung sollten gute Druckergebnisse erzielbar sein. Zellviabilität-Assays (WST-1) von PMeOx b PnPrOzi Copolymeren an NIH 3T3 Fibroblasten und HaCat-Zellen zeigten, dass die Polymere bei Konzentrationen von bis zu 100 g/L und Inkubationszeiten von 24 h keine dosisabhängige Zytotoxizität besitzen. Zusammenfassend kann festgehalten werden, dass die Copolymerisation von POx und POzi den verfügbaren Eigenschaftsbereich von POx basierten Materialien deutlich vergrößert hat. Insbesondere die temperaturinduzierte Gelierung von wässrigen Polymerlösungen wurde noch nie zuvor für ein anderes Copolymer auf Basis von POx und POzi beschrieben. Aufgrund ihrer herausragenden Eigenschaften, wozu unter anderem eine sehr gute Zytokompatibilität bei hohen Polymerkonzentrationen und eine vergleichsweise hohe mechanische Festigkeit zählen, konnten die entwickelten Hydrogele erfolgreich für den 3D Biodruck verwendet werden. Obwohl die beschriebenen Ergebnisse sehr vielversprechend sind und die entwickelte Hydrogelplattform folglich als ernstzunehmender Biotintenkandidat angesehen werden sollte, ist die Konkurrenz sehr groß und es bleibt abzuwarten, welche Tinte bzw. Tinten in Zukunft zum Einsatz kommen

Texto completoSchätzungen zufolge sind mehr als 40% aller „new chemical entities“, welche in der pharmazeutischen Industrie entwickelt werden, wasserunlöslich. Aus diesem Grund ist der Bedarf an Zusatzstoffen, welche die Wasserlöslichkeit und dadurch die Bioverfügbarkeit erhöhen, enorm. Poly(2-oxazolin)e (POx) werden derzeitig intensiv als vielseitig einsetzbare Biomaterialien untersucht. Obwohl bestimmte POx basierte, mizellare Wirkstoffformulierungen außergewöhnlich hohe Beladungskapazitäten > 50 Gew.% aufwiesen und dadurch ausgeprägte anti-Tumor Effektivität in vivo ermöglichten, schlug die Formulierung anderer hydrophober Stoffe fehl. Dies lässt Zweifel an dem altbewährten Konzept aufkommen, in welchem hydrophobe Arzneistoffe mehr oder weniger unspezifisch im hydrophoben Kern einer Mizelle gelöst werden. Aus diesem Grund ist ein genauerer Blick auf die Interaktionen zwischen allen Bestandteilen einer Formulierung vonnöten. Deshalb wurde eine große Polymerplattform synthetisiert, mit verschiedenen hydrophoben Wirkstoffen unterschiedlicher Struktur beladen und die Formulierungen im Anschluss mit herkömmlichen und weniger herkömmlichen Methoden charakterisiert. Die daraus erhaltenen Einblicke ermöglichten es ein umfassenderes Verständnis über die Interaktionen von Polymer und Wirkstoff zu entwickeln. Innerhalb dieser Studien wurden Aggregate charakterisiert, welche von einer klassischen Kern/Schale Morphologie abwichen. Des Weiteren konnte die kaum erforschte Polymerklasse der Poly(2-oxazin)e (POzi) als vielversprechende Wirkstoffträgerplattform für hydrophobe Wirkstoffe charakterisiert werden. Von dieser Grundlagenforschung abgesehen, wurde die anti-Tumor Effektivität von Curcumin und Atorvastatin Nanoformulierungen untersucht. Um den Anwendungsbereich der POx und POzi basierten Wirkstoffformulierungen, welche für intravenöse Verabreichung entwickelt wurden, zu erweitern, wurde ein Curcumin beladenes Hydrogel als injizierbares Wirkstoffdepot entwickelt

In this study, ABA triblock copolymers consisting of poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) A block and poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz) B block are synthesized. By controlling inlet ratio of L-lactide and 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline, triblock copolymers with various amphiphilicity can be obtained. Afterward, casting polymer films are degraded in the presence of proteinase K. During degradation, the composition and properties of films and degradation residues are analyzed in detail, respectively. The purpose is to investigate the degradation behavior of these polymers thoroughly. In addition, by virtue of unique microphase separation of triblock copolymer and the distinct amphiphilicity between PEOz and PLLA, we expect one of the blocks can be removed quickly by enzymatic degradation, and left the highly-ordered nanostructure. Therefore, on one hand the weight and water absorption change of films are weighed. The rate of weight loss is proportioned to water absorption. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution are determined by gel permeation chromatography, and it shows degradation prefer lower molecular weight polymers in the beginning. Furthermore, according to 1H nuclear magnetic resonance analysis, the weight loss in early stage is mainly attributed to PEOz, and then PEOz and PLLA are washed away at fixed proportion. And the surface and cross section morphology are observed by scanning electronic microscope. The result shows there are different morphology changes between the film surface that contacts air and that contacts Teflon mold. The air side of films is more degradable than Teflon side, and it would generate lots of porous microspheres on the surface. Last, the increase of crystallinity and recrystallization phenomena that reduce degradation rate are observed by differential scanning calorimetry. On the other hand, the analysis of degradation residues shows it consists of particles dispersed in solution that comprise PEOz and poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) copolymers and PLLA oligomers and monomers dissolved in solution. Based on the results, a mechanism of enzymatic degradation is proposed that the degradation behavior of PLLA-PEOz-PLLA triblock copolymer displays as two stages. In the first stage, the loss of PEOz-dominant segments forms particles dispersed in solution, and results in porous films. And in the second stage, enzyme permeates films via these pores makes the loss of a large number PLLA of which oligomers and monomers dissolved in solution, and makes films with uniform pores. Therefore, we provide a point of view which takes degradation residues into consideration to evaluate the properties in application and to solve the encountered problems of this biodegradable polymer. Besides, the highly-ordered erosion film may provide a economic and convenient way to produce scaffold in tissue engineering and photonic crystal in drug delivery or other applications.

Texto completoDas Ziel der Arbeit war es, wasserlösliche Poly(2-oxazolin) (POx) Copolymere mit neuen Seitenkettenfunktionalitäten zu entwickeln, welche zur Synthese von Hydrogelen für biomedizinische Anwendungen und zur Entwicklung von Peptid-Polymer Konjugaten genutzt werden können. Zunächst wurden Copolymere aus den Monomeren MeOx oder EtOx mit ButEnOx und EtOx mit DecEnOx synthetisiert und anschließend charakterisiert. Die Monomere wurden statistisch miteinander copolymerisiert, indem sie zusammen zum Start der Reaktion in das Reaktionsgefäß gegeben wurden. Die Vinyl Funktionalität, die durch die Monomere ButEnOx und DecEnOx eingebracht wurde, kann später zur nachträglichen Funktionalisierung am Polymer verwendet werden. Die synthetisierten Copolymere wurden weiterhin mit Thiolen oder mit funktionellen Catecholgruppen ausgestattet, um Hydrogele herzustellen. Um Peptid-Polymer Konjugate zu bilden, wurden zyklische Thioester, genauer Thiolacton acrylamid und ein Azlacton Präkursor, dessen Synthese neu entwickelt wurde, an die Seitenkette von P(EtOx-co-ButEnOx) Copolymere angebunden. Im Folgenden wurde die Anwendung der thiol funktionalisierten Copolymere als Hydrogele, welche mittels radikalischer Thiol-ene Chemie vernetzt wurden, präsentiert. Das Quellverhalten und die mechanischen Eigenschaften wurden analysiert. Sowohl die Hydrophilie des Netzwerkes als auch die Vernetzungsdichte beeinflusste das Quellverhalten und die mechanische Festigkeit stark. Alle Hydrogele zeigten gute Zellverträglichkeit. Die Hydrogele basierend auf MeOx und EtOx wurden außerdem mit den Farbstoffen Fluorescein und Methylenblau beladen. Es wurde beobachtet, dass von den beiden Farbstoffen die Aufnahme des hydrophileren Farbstoffs Fluorescein stärker vom Quellungsgrad des Hydrogels abhing. Hingegen war die Aufnahme des hydrophoberen Farbstoffs Methylenblau weniger davon abhängig wie sehr das Hydrogel quellen konnte, sondern stärker von der Hydrophilie des Hydrogel-Netzwerkes. Um die potenzielle Anwendung als Knorpelkleber zu testen, wurden (biohybrid) Hydrogele basierend auf Catechol-funktionalisiertem Copolymeren mit und ohne zusätzliches Fibrinogen und dem Oxidationsmittel Natriumperiodat hergestellt. Das System war durch die eingebauten Ester Vernetzungspunkte abbaubar. Das Quellverhalten und die mechanischen Eigenschaften wurden charakterisiert. Wie zu erwarten, zeigten Hydrogele mit stärkerer Vernetzung eine geringe Quellung und einen höheren elastischen Modulus. Die Zugabe von Fibrinogen jedoch erhöhte die Elastizität des Netzwerkes, welches förderlich für die avisierte Anwendung als Knorpelkleber sein kann. Die biologische Auswertung zeigte, dass die Ester-haltigen, abbaubaren Vernetzungspunkte von großem Vorteil sind. Die Chondrozyten konnten ohne Probleme den Defektspalt überbrücken, was nicht möglich war, sobald keine Ester Funktionalitäten im Hydrogel eingebunden waren. Zuletzt wurden verschiedene Möglichkeiten Peptid-Polymer Konjugate zu synthetisieren präsentiert. Zum einen wurden Peptide mit der Thiolgruppe des endständigen Cysteins an die Vinyl Seitenkette der P(EtOx-co-ButEnOx) Copolymere mittels radikalischer Thiol-en Chemie angebunden. Des Weiteren wurde ein zyklischer Thioester, das Thiolacton, und eine Azlacton Funktionalität verwendet, um ein Modell Peptid mittels nativer chemischer Ligation zu binden. Die zwei zuletzt genannten Strategien, um Peptide an Polymere zu binden, sind besonders interessant, da hier ein beziehungsweise im Fall der Thiolacton Funktionalität zwei freie Thiole an der Bindungsstelle nach der Reaktion entstehen. Diese könnten genutzt werden, um zum Beispiel über Thiol-en Chemie Peptid-haltige Hydrogele herzustellen. Zusammenfassend zeigen seitenkettenfunktionale Poly(oxazolin) Copolymere ein großes Potenzial für biomedizinische Anwendungen. Die vielen verschiedenen Seitenkettenfunktionalitäten können durch das passende Monomer oder durch Post-Polymerisationsfunktionalisierung eingebracht werden, wie in dieser Arbeit gezeigt. Durch ihre Multifunktionalität können Hydrogel Charakteristika, wie der Vernetzungsgrad und die mechanische Festigkeit, fein eingestellt und angepasst werden, je nach Anwendungsbereich im menschlichen Körper. Die entwickelten chemoselektiven und orthogonalen Reaktionswege können in der Zukunft genutzt werden, um Polymer Konjugate zu synthetisieren, welche zum Beispiel für das Drug Delivery oder im Bereich der Geweberegneration zum Einsatz kommen

In this study, polymer concentration and the pH of polymer solution was shown to have significant effect on the interaction between poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(2-ethyl-2-ozazoline) (PEtOz) and also on the structure of the interpolymer complexes (IPCs). In addition, Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was introduced into PAA/PEtOz solution so as to mimic the the microstructure change of interpolymer complexes caused by amphipiles in biological system. The competitive behavior between IPCs and SDS were studied in terms of pyrene solubilization and transparency. The microstructure of PAA-PEtOz IPCs was found to be varied with the amount of SDS added. Futhermore, doxorubicin (DOX) was added to PAA/PEtOz solution in order to examine the drug-loading capacity of PAA-PEtOz IPCs. It was found that the hydrophobicity of PAA-PEtOz IPCs dominated the loading efficiency of DOX before IPCs forming precipitate due to the growth of size by the solubiliztion of DOX. Moreover, the release rate of DOX from PAA-PEtOz IPCs was also found to be depended on the hydrophobicity of IPCs.

Texto completoPoly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (PIPOZ) is a thermosensitive polymer whose lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in water is ~ 40 °C. This thesis focuses on the properties in aqueous solution and on interfaces of new poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) systems. PIPOZ is often compared to its structural isomer, the renowned poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM). If PNIPAM has been the center of thermosensitive polymer research for the last three decades, it is PIPOZ which has recently been gaining interest. The first aim of the thesis is to improve on the knowledge on PIPOZ properties in aqueous solution in the presence of water-soluble additives. Effect of salts and cosolvents were investigated by turbidimetry and microcalorimetry (DSC) on PIPOZ homopolymers of different molecular weights. Effect of salts on PIPOZ solubility follows the Hofmeister series. Chaotropic anions (SCN-, I-) induce a large increase (up to 30 °C) of the cloud point temperature of PIPOZ solution which is 10 times larger than for PNIPAM. Adding methanol into PNIPAM aqueous solution leads to a decrease in solubility of the polymer. This phenomena is called cononsolvency. Unlike PNIPAM solutions, the addition of methanol in PIPOZ solution does not lead to a cononsolvency effect. Nevertheless, cononsolvency has been observed in the case of THF addition into PIPOZ aqueous solutions. The second aim of this work was to design and synthesize an amphiphilic PIPOZ able to anchor itself at the air-water interface and to form stable monolayer via the Langmuir-Blodgett technique. For that purpose, a lipidic initiator containing two alkyl chains and a phosphate group, was synthesized and used to initiate the cationic ring opening polymerization (CROP) of 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline. The obtained amphiphilic (lipo-PIPOZ, Mn = 10 kg.mol-1) forms stable monolayers at the air-water interface. The presence of salt (NaCl or NaSCN) in the sub-phase during the compression of the films leads to expansion of the monolayer even if the salts have opposite effect on PIPOZ solubility in solution. The interfacial films were then transferred onto mica substrates and captured by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The salts induced the formation of aggregates (height ~ 10 nm) whose diameter depends on the salt and its concentration. At last, a block copolymer, TrOH, containing a central poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) (Mn = 2 kg.mol-1) and two PIPOZ blocks was obtained by CROP of 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline initiated vi by a bi-functionnal PEG. The total molecular weight was Mn ~ 11 kg.mol-1. Hydrophobic chain ends modification has been performed onto TrOH to bring amphiphilicity and to get a telechelic octadecyl-end capped block copolymer TrC18. The properties of these two block copolymers in water were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), microcalorimetry (DSC), electronic transmission microscopy (TEM) and fluorescence spectroscopy, FT-IR and AFM. Cloud point temperature of copolymer solutions was found to be around 48 °C for TrOH and around 38°C for the amphiphilic analogue TrC18. The latter self-assembles at room temperature into flower micelles whose hydrodynamic radius is RH ~ 8 nm. Extended heating of both copolymer solutions leads to crystallization of PIPOZ block and insoluble fibers form in solution.

The purpose of this study was to prepare polymeric gene carriers based on PEOz-b-PMAA, (poly(2-ethyl-oxazoline)- block-poly -methacrylic acid) and Branched-Poly (ethylenimine), (B-PEI). PMAA were partially dissociation under neuteral pH and were with negative charge, so that they could attach to the positive charge surface of B-PEI/DNA polyplex. The newly formed polyplex were biocompatible by the hydrophilic segment, PEOz and could enhance the stability of the polyplex in vivo. We prepared B-PEI/DNA polyplex by varying weight ratio of B-PEI/DNA, till the polyplex were provide with stable particle size and highly positive charge. And the B-PEI/DNA polyplex were then formed a bilayer structure polyplex with PEOz-b-PMAA. The experiment results showed that the particle size of B-PEI/DNA polyplex were about 150 nm, and the bilayer polyplex were about 200~250nm. While B-PEI/DNA polyplex carried posive surface charge with zeta potential of 30mV, the PEOz-b-PMAA could covered up the positive charge of B-PEI when bilayer structure polyplex were prepared. Data of material cytotoxicity showed that B-PEI revealed extremely toxicity to Hela cells under 100μg/ml concentration, and the cells viability approached 0, and PEOz-b-PMAA showed 80% viability under the same conceration. Then We compared the viability of B-PEI/DNA and PEOz-b-PMAA /B-PEI/DNA, and the later kept higher viability then the former . TEM observation showed that PEOz-PMAA/B-PEI/DNA polyplex formed core-shell structure, and the polyplex in pH 5 would collapse and release plasmid.The results of transfection effects indicated that the bilayer structure reduce the efficiency slightly, and RLU/unit weight of the bilayer gene carrier were about 1/10~1/100 of B-PEI/DNA polyplex. By CLSM observation, we observed celluptake of B-PEI/DNA polyplex and bilayer structure polyplex, the result revealed that the bilayer structure polyplex started to accumulate after 3hrs incubation and accumulated a significant amount after 6hrs. In conclusion, the polyplex formed with PEOz-PMAA covered on B-PEI/DNA could improved the cytotoxicity of B-PEI/DNA. The newly ternary polyplex presented a well transfection efficiency and cell uptake efficiency, so the ternary polyplex constitute a useful approach for further design of gene carriers.

The research synthesized the non-viral gene vectors based on poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazo-line) and it’s copolymer. Part 1: This study synthesized the non-viral and pH-sensitive gene carrier, poly((2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-co-ethylenimine)-block-poly(2- ethyl-2-oxazoline) (P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz). The gene carrier contains both cationic poly((2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-co-ethylenimine) (P(EOz/EI)) segments and charge-neutral poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz) segments. In this study, PEOz was used as biocompatibility shell and as the core source. A technique using methanesulfonyl poly((2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-co-ethylenimine, (P(EOz/EI)-OMs) as a macroinitiator to modify the outer shell PEOz segment provided an amino group at the chain terminus. P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz were coordinated with plasmid DNA, and the resulting complexes were characterized by gel permeation chromatography and 1H NMR spectra. The P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz polyplexes showed suitable mean particle size, low cytotoxicity, and acceptable transfection because of shielding of PEI by PEOz outer shell. TEM morphology showed that the stable core-shell structure of ternary polyplexes at pH 7.4 collapsed and released plasmid at pH 5. Observations of cell uptake of the B-PEI/DNA polyplex and P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz/DNA polyplexes by CLSM revealed that P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz polyplexes started to accumulate after 6 h incubation and accumulated significantly after 12 h. The results indicated that the hydrophilic, charge-neutral PEOz shell stabilized polyplex formation, and enhanced polyplex cell viability. Polyplex transfection efficiencies were as high as those of commercially available transfection reagents. Our results suggest that this novel gene carrier, based on the diblock copolymer P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz, has potential for in non-viral gene therapy applications. Part 2: This investigation demonstrates new ternary gene delivery systems, based on the pH-responsive diblock copolymer poly(2-ethyl-oxazoline)-block-poly(methacrylic acid) (PEOz-b-PMAA), and the branched-poly (ethylenimine) (B-PEI). The plasmid DNA is complexed with B-PEI and further with PEOz-b-PMAA to obtain ternary polyplexes (DNA/B-PEI/PEOz-b-PMAA). PMAA was partially dissociated at neutral pH with a negative charge, to attach to the positively charged surface of the B-PEI/DNA polyplex. The ternary polyplexes also desorb and return to the original pre-poly complex to help gene release after cell uptake due to PMMA becomes neutral charge under an acid environment in endosome. The ternary polyplexes show suitable mean particle size, low cytotoxicity, and acceptable transfection at pH 7.4 because of shielding of B-PEI by PEOz-b-PMAA. A transmission electron microscopy morphological examination shows that the stable core-shell structure of ternary polyplexes at pH 7.4 collapsed and released plasmid at pH 5. Observations of the cell uptake of the B-PEI/DNA polyplex and ternary polyplexes by confocal laser-scanning microscope revealed that ternary polyplexes started to accumulate after 3 h of incubation and accumulated significantly after 6 h. In conclusion, the ternary polyplex improves the cytotoxicity of the single B-PEI/DNA polyplex, and presents a pH-responsive behavior to enhance gene escape from the polyplex. The ternary polyplex constitutes a useful approach for gene carrier design. Part 3: The primary objective of this study is to explore the feasibility of inhibiting tumor growth via the delivery of endostatin-angiostatin (hEA) fusion gene by above non-viral gene carrer. We first compared above two gene carriers in particles size, zeta potential, cell toxicity and gene transfection efficiency. The results indicated that the gene carrier P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz from first part had better quality for gene delievery, so we chose P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz for further research. The results indicated that gene carrier P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz with hEA led to a higher degree of tumor growth inhibition, and can be easily accumulated in tumor and metabolized. In conclusion, the P(EOz/EI)-b-PEOz constitutes a useful approach for gene carrier design.
