제목 Synthesis of Gd-DTPA-polysuccinimide : the micelle-form gadolinuim complex as a potential MRI contrast agent
초록 Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) is a very efficient chelating agent for the complexation of the gadolinium (Gd) ion. This corresponding comlex, due to its high in vivo stability, has been safely used as contrast agent in MRI and MRA over the past decade1. Also polysuccinimide (PSI) is physico-chemical characteristics for development of macromolecular prodrugs, due to biocompatibility, biodegradability, easy synthesis, low cost and easy functionalization2,3. In this work, we deal with the synthesis of PSI having various functional groups such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), Hexadecylamine (C16) and Gd-DTPA via ring opening of PSI. And the formation of nanoparticle micelle as drug carrier were also examined. PSI was synthesized by polycondensation polymerization of aspartic acid. Functionalization of PSI was carried out by introduction of PEG, C16 and Gd-DTPA into PSI. All materials were characterized by 1H-NMR, EA and EDS. Micelle size was measured by ELS and AFM. Fig. 1 and 2 showed micelle size and shape. The size of functionalized PSI had an average size of 250 nm ~ 300 nm. And the shape was spherical. In conclusions, we prepared PSI functionalized with PEG, C16 and Gd-DTPA.
