摘要: 利用Pluronic嵌段共聚物F127的自组装特性和3-巯基丙基三甲氧基硅烷(MPTMS)在碱性环境下的水解缩聚反应,首先制备了具有高稳定性的有机氧化硅基杂化胶束。进一步借助杂化胶束表面的巯基与钯物种的配位作用,利用“原位限域生长”策略制备得到负载钯纳米团簇的有机氧化硅基杂化胶束。采用动态光散射、透射电镜、X射线衍射、红外光谱等表征手段分析了钯簇@氧化硅基杂化胶束的形貌、结构和稳定性,并使用3,3′,5,5′-四甲基联苯胺(TMB)进行显色反应验证了该体系的类过氧化物酶活性,同时探究了其在808 nm近红外光激发下的光热性能。细胞实验结果表明,该钯簇@氧化硅基杂化胶束能够被肿瘤细胞摄取,并具备良好的生物安全性和光热毒性,有望作为一种类过氧化物酶成像引导的光热治疗剂用于癌症的高效安全诊疗。Abstract: Taking advantage of the self-assembly of Pluronic block copolymer F127 and the hydrolysis and condensation of (3-Mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTMS) in alkaline environment, a highly stable silica-based hybrid micelles were firstly synthesized. Furthermore, based on the coordination interaction between palladium species and thiols on the surface of hybrid micelles, the palladium clusters-loaded silica-based hybrid micelles (Pd@FOMs) were prepared via the “in-situ confined growth” strategy. The hydrodynamic diameter and morphology of Pd@FOMs were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The structure of Pd@FOMs was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy. 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was used to verify the peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity of Pd@FOMs. In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, Pd@FOMs could oxidize TMB to TMB oxide with characteristic absorption at 652 nm. The Michaelis constant (Km) of Pd@FOMs was calculated to be 113.91 mmol/L. Besides, the photothermal performance of Pd@FOMs was explored. Under 808 nm laser irradiation (1.0 W/cm2) for 5 min, Pd@FOMs with the concentration of Pd at 100 mg/L induced temperature rise from 18.1 ℃ to 52.9 ℃. In addition, Pd@FOMs had good photothermal stability with a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 65.76%. Cell experiments showed that Pd@FOMs could be endocytosed by SMMC-7721 tumor cells effectively and had good biocompatibility and excellent photothermal toxicity. Thus, Pd@FOMs are expected to be applied as imaging-guided photothermal therapeutic agent for diagnosis and treatment of tumors.
